Description

This document has been prepared for internal use by the General Electric Company to serve as a program for evaluating reactor instrumentation and safety circuit equipment needs. It is intended that this document be used as a guide for defining, planning and scheduling engineering effort; budgeting of capital money; and project planning for new instrumentation systems. Effort will be made to periodically evaluate the status of the programs presented and provide updating information accordingly.After a plant has been built and operated for a number of years, it becomes apparent to operating and engineering personnel that certain modifications in controls and monitoring systems would provide both tangible and intangible benefits. Systems which were once thought to be the primary points of control shift in importance as others become recognized. As time passes this shifting spreads the main control focus from the central control desk to various other areas in the control room. Production rate increases cause instrument ranges and scales to be changed so that information on the process can still be obtained from existing equipment. Response times, sensitivity, limits, and time constants which were figured for one level must be used or revised for new levels. Further, it is discovered that the process monitoring points could be relocated or increased in number to provide more and better data on plant operation. New monitoring equipment is developed and installed to fill voids in information so production can continue meeting high standards for safety and process control. Equipment is fitted here and there in an already crowded control room, and some is even relocated to less advantageous positions to make available the necessary panel space. This in brief, is the rather complex status of Hanford Production Reactor instrumentation today.
