Subject:
LER 2015-004-00, Valid Manual Actuation of the Primary Containment Isolation System This Licensee Event Report (LER) addresses a valid manual actuation of the primary containment isolation system in response to a low delta pressure condition in reactor enclosure secondary containment. The manual actuation affected primary containment isolation valves in more than one system.
This LER is being submitted pursuant to the requirements of 10CFR50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A).
There are no regulatory commitments contained in this letter.
If you have any questions, please contact Robert B. Dickinson at (610) 718-3400.

CONTINUATION SHEET normal ventilation system. Per TS 3.6.5.1.1, Reactor Enclosure Secondary Containment Integrity surveillance requires pressure within the reactor enclosure secondary containment to be maintained greater than or equal to 0.25 inches of vacuum water gauge.
Cause of the Event
The cause of the event was a trip of the reactor enclosure ventilation system that resulted in a low reactor enclosure secondary containment delta pressure condition. The cause of the ventilation system trip was a REECE system flow transmitter output drift to a value less than the low flow trip setpoint.
Corrective Action Completed The failed flow transmitter was replaced.
The reactor enclosure ventilation system was restored to service and continues to operate normally with the TCC installed.
Corrective Action Planned Troubleshooting is planned to support removal of the TCC that was installed to defeat the REECE system low flow trip.
The preventive maintenance (PM) activity for the REECE system flow transmitter will be reviewed and revised as necessary.
Previous Similar Occurrences On May 21, 2013, Limerick Unit 1 submitted LER 2012-003-01 which reported a valid manual actuation of the primary containment isolation system. The event was due to a reactor enclosure ventilation system trip that resulted in manual actuation of the primary containment isolation system.
