should be based on its completenes's in addressing the factors fisted "in the format
and content guide.
7.2 Design of Instrumentation and Control Systems
In this section of the format and content guide, the staff discusses various topics
that the applicant should include in this chapter of the SAR. The reviewer should
confirm that this type of information is in the SAR for each of the I&C systems in
its entirety and for each category of subsystem.- The SAR should address the
following:
* design criteria
* -design bases
* system description
* system performance analysis
* -conclusion
The remaining sections of this chapter discuss specific information to be included
in the SAR for each of the subsystems and how the reviewer should evaluate each
subsysten.
7.3 Reactor Control System
Areas of Review
The RCS contains most of the I&C subsystems and components designed for the
full range of normal reactor operation. The areas of review for the RCS should
include a discussion of the factors requested in Section 7.2 of the format and
content guide. The information for the RCS may be presented under the following
subtopics:-
* :anuclear instruments-including all detector channels designed to monitor
or measure nuclear radiations, and possibly fuel temperature within the
reactor for operational purposes
* process instrumensistruments designed to measure and display such
parameters as coolant flow, temperature, or level; fuel temperature; or air
flow parameters within or from the reactor room.
