nted 3.9.6-22 Revision 3 - March 2007 ii. Ensure that adequate design was demonstrated for pumps, valves, and dynamic restraints important to safety iii. Verify that the testing and analyses that were performed properly defined and accounted for all applicable loads H. SRP Section 3.9.3 provides additional review guidance for safety and relief valves and dynamic restraints. I. The reviewer should give particular attention to flow-induced loading in functional design and qualification to account for degraded flow conditions such as those that might be encountered because of the presence of debris, impurities, and contaminants in the fluid system (e.g., containment sump pump recirculating water with debris). 2. Inservice Testing Program for Pumps A. The staff will review the scope of the applicant’s program for conformance to the criteria stated in Subsection II.2. Initial reference values should be determined from the results of preservice testing or from the results of the first IST. The periodic IST program should be used to verify that any deviations from reference values are within acceptable ranges. B. The pump test program procedures should conform to the criteria stated in Subsection II.2. The program is best presented in tabular form. C. The staff will review the IST frequencies and test parameters for conformance to the criteria stated in Subsection II.2. D. The staff will review the test procedures described in the SAR for conformance to the criteria stated in Subsection II.2. The SAR need only provide the necessary information to permit a conclusion that the methods of measurement and the data acquisition system will provide the needed data. The reviewer does not approve or disapprove the instruments or methods proposed or used. E. The staff will review the accuracy and range of instruments for conformance to the criteria stated in Subsection II.2. F. The staff will review the test durations for Group A, Group B, and comprehensive tests for conformance
