"The ITT Conoflow models GT25CA1826 and GT25CD1826 current to pressure (l/P) transducers produce a calibrated 3.0 to 15.0 psi output pressure from a 4.0 to 20.0 mA DC (input) signal. Other dedicated l/P transducer part numbers are available with different output pressure ranges and input signal values.

"On August 19, 2016 a defective model GT25CA 1826 (s/n 628894) was received for evaluation. This transducer would only achieve 0-9 psi output pressure, falling short of the specified 3-15 psi output range. The failure was caused by misalignment of a key internal sub-assembly component as a result of shipping damage (mechanical shock). The product has be~n repaired, calibrated/tested, and is being returned to the customer (Arizona Public Service Co.).

"The following is a list of customers, and the specific l/P transducer part numbers procured from ITT since 2006.

These customers will be notified by November 1, 2016.

Subject:

USN RC 10CFR Part 21 Notification Gentlemen, This letter is ta notify the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission of a component defect.

Yhe ITT Conoflaw models GT25CA1826 and GT25Cbi826 current to pressure (l/P) transducers produce a calibratsd 3.0 ta 15.0 psi output pressure from a 4.0 to 20.0 mA DC (input) signal. other dedicated l/P transducer part numbers are available with different output pressure ranges and input signal values.

On August 19, 2016 a defective model GT25CA1626 (s/n 628894} was received for evaluation. This transducer would only achieve 0-9 psi output pressure, falling short of the specified 3-15 psi output range.

The failure was caused by misalignment of a key internal sub-assembly component as a result of shipping damage (mechanical shack). The product has been repaired, calibrated I tested, and is being returned to the customer (Arizona Public Service Co.)_

Nuclear facilities which use this product will be advised to examine their stock of uninstalled and/or unverified product for shipping damage through notification and dissemination of a revised installation, operation and maintenance manual. Product which has already been verified (callbrated) and put into service does not have this defect.

Preventive actions will advise customers to verify the condition of the product, prior to placing it into service. Supporting documentation (the instruction, operation and maintenance manual) and packaging

• will be updated to notify facilities ta inspect the packciging and the product, and verify the operation and calibrate the J/P transducer prior ta putting the product in service.

The followlng table (page 2 of this notification} is a list of customers, and the specific l/P transducer part numbers procured from ITT since 2006, These customers will be notified by November 1, 2016.
