Term
HWC

Describe the HWC trips and setpoints.
Definition
-Main steam flow: <30%.
-11 or 12 AE trip: AO-1085A/B closed.
-Total H2 flow high: >58scfm.
-Either RFP H2 flow high: >24scfm.
-Low O2 pressure: <45psig.
-Area H2 monitors: >1% H2.
-O2 concentration at recombiner outlet: <5%.
-Both recombiner outlet valves closed: AO-7557A/B shut.
-Manual trip from control room or local at C-308.
Term
HWC

Describe the HWC and RFP interlock.
Definition
-If RFP secured or its recirc valve is open then that trains supply valve (CV-4152A/B) will shut.
Term
HWC

Describe the gas compressor start signals.
Definition
-H2 tank pressure at 110psig with the pump not operating and H2 receiver <2000psig.
-H2 receiver <1800psig, with pump not running, and tank pressure >80psig.
Term
HWC

Describe when the H2 pump starts.
Definition
Cycles between 1200 to 1900 psig.
Term
HWC

Describe the pump trips.
Definition
-High receiver pressure (1900#).
-Pipe line low temp: -250F.
-Relief valve open: Tailpipe at -40F.
-Low N2 purge or system pressure.
Term
HWC

Describe O2 supply on loss of normal supply.
Definition
-O2 bottles available.
-That will ensure enough O2 available for complete H2 recombination of H2 remaining in system after trip.
Term
HWC

Describe what happens on system trip.
Definition
-Pretty much all valves close.
-O2 supply flow to recombiners (primary and backup) take 12 minutes to close to ensure enough to recombine the H2.
-All others close immediately.
Term
HWC

Describe the O2 tank high pressure relief.
Definition
-250psig.
-Vented to atmosphere.
Term
HWC

Describe any time delays in HWC.
Definition
-Injection of O2 is delayed based on Rx power.
-At 100% roughly 45 seconds to allow time for the H2 to show up at the O2 injection point.
Term
HWC

Describe the steam flow interlock.
Definition
H2 is interlocked to prevent injection when steam flow is <30%.
Term
HWC

Describe rad levels and protection with HWC.
Definition
-Rad levels in steam areas can increase by 3 to 5 times with an increase in H2 injection rate.
-Can reduce HWC injection for work if will save 1 rem and have shift supervision permission.
-Unplanned lowering takes Plant Manager permission.
Term
HWC

Describe RWCU relationship with HWC.
Definition
-Maximize RWCU flow 24 hours prior to HWC injection reduction and maintain until 72 hours after HWC restored to normal injection rate.
