ditions. The ITA should specify that a type test or a combination of type test and analysis, and a production test, will be performed for the pumps and valves listed in the applicable ITAAC table. The Acceptance Criteria should specify that the Functional Qualification Report and Application Report prepared in conformance to ASME QME-1-2007 (or later editions accepted by the NRC), as accepted in RG 1.100, Revision 3 (or later revision), or an equivalent standard, exists and concludes that the system’s safety-related pumps and valves listed in the ITAAC table are capable of performing their safety-related functions under the full range of fluid flow, differential pressure, electrical conditions, and temperature conditions with debris-laden coolant fluids up to and including design basis accident conditions. DCD Tier 2, Chapter 3 should contain specific provisions for methods used by the COL applicant or licensee for the design, qualification, and testing of pumps and valves to demonstrate their design-basis capability. For example, ASME Standard QME-1-2007 incorporates lessons learned to ensure that pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints are functionally designed and qualified to perform their safety functions. The NRC staff accepted the use of ASME QME-1-2007 in RG 1.100, Revision 3, with specific conditions. The Tier 1 information regarding functional qualification of pumps and valves may be specified as Tier 2* information, although specific provisions in the ITAAC, such as use of ASME QME-1-2007 (or later edition accepted by NRC) as accepted in RG 1.100 (Revision 3 or later revision), for the functional qualification of safety-related pumps and valves may 14.3.3−15 Draft Revision 1 – September 2018 eliminate the need to use this designation. Tier 2* information is addressed further in SRP Section 14.3, Appendix A. (b) Pump and Valve Functional Capability. (i) An ITAAC should require a vendor test of the Reactor Coolant Pump (RCP) flywheel integrity by an
