Lev Con
Describe the runbacks that Lev Con components have an input into. |
|
Definition
-Runback to minimum (30%) if feedwater flow is less than 20% of rated for 15 seconds. -Steam blow >55.4% rated and RFP or Cond pump trips the recirc pumps runback to 50%. |

Term
Lev Con
Describe the effect that Lev Con components have on the rod worth minimizer. |
|
Definition
-Puts RWM in service <20% steam flow. -Takes RWM out of service >20% steam flow. -Turns RWM ON less than 35% steam flow. -Turns RWM OFF > than 35% steam flow. |

Term
Lev Con
Describe the element control inputs and uses. |
|
Definition
-3 element control: Monitors steam flow, feed flow, and Rx level. -Used durning normal operations. -1 element control: Monitors Rx level only. -Used when < 30% (steam/feed flow inaccurate) (40% by procedure). -Also as a sub for 3 element upon failure up to 100%. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe when an auto transfer to 1 element occurs. |
|
Definition
-Steam flow indicators differ by more than 270,000lbm/hr. -Feed flow indicators differ by more than 570,000lbm/hr. -Failed sensor on feed or steam flow. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the failure modes of the FRVs and element controls. |
|
Definition
-Loss of air to FRVs (<75#) they fail as is. -Can operate in 1 or 3 element control. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the failure mode of the low flow valve and element control. |
|
Definition
-Loss of air (<75#) fails open. -Loss of power fails closed. -Can operate in 1 element only. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the power supply to Lev Con system. |
|
Definition
-Dual power from Y-30 and Y-10. -Loss of one power has no effect on the system except an annunciator. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the selection of Rx level control. |
|
Definition
-Can select either A or B detector or median. -Median selects the median of the 3 inputs. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the indicated values on the Rx water level inputs into Lev Con. |
|
Definition
-Feedwater: 0" to +60". -Safeguards: -50" to +50". |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the deviation from setpoint of Rx water level. |
|
Definition
-Programmed to lower level by 3" from setpoint (only see 3" due to level being sensed outside steam seperator). -Will get 7" in the steam seperator area due to diff pressure. -Total of 10" at 100%. -10% to 100%. -Prevents carryover and carryunder. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the low flow controller band and power limit. |
|
Definition
-In auto can only control level between +15" to +40". -Can control level <20% power. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe bias control. |
|
Definition
-Set a bias on the FRVs. -Bias should always by 0 or negative. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the FRV control band. |
|
Definition
-In auto the FRVs are clamped between +30" to +40". |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe level sensor failure and what happens. |
|
Definition
-If narrow (feedwater) or safeguard level differ by 10" from median then auto switch to median. -Also get alarm. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe flow signal failures and what happens. |
|
Definition
-If feedwater or steam flow fail out of range then switch to single element. -If feedwaters differ by 570,000lbm/hr or steam flows differ by 270,000lbm/hr then switch to 1 element. -Also get alarm. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe what happens on loss of control signal to FRV. |
|
Definition
-If input signal and output signal of FRV controller differ by 27% or more than the valves lock-up. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
Describe the failure of the master controller or low flow controller setpoints. |
|
Definition
-Master controllers clamped at +30" low and +40" high in auto. -Low flow controllers clamped at +15" low and +40" high in auto. |
|
|
Term
Lev Con
