State the purpose of Reactor Vessel Instrumentation |
|
Definition
Provides operator information in the Control Room to protect the vessel from undue thermal and mechanical stresses. Information used to assure the Core remains covered and the separators are not flooded. Redundant inputs to the Reactor Protection System to shutdown the Reactor when fuel damage limits are approached. Information at Panel C-292 (ASDS) in event of Control Room evacuation
