Cold Overpressurization Protection System (COPS) is intended for protection of the reactor shellthrough automatic and manual control of set of safety and isolation valves.   The system is based on TRICON 9 triple modular redundancy controller of TRICONEX Company, USA. COPS consists of   two cabinets,  equipped with programmable controllers and terminal blocks. These terminal blocks are used for connection with solenoid valves and the MCR and RCR Control Rooms. 

 

 

 

Principle Description of Operation

• The system utilizes temperature signals from six (6) cold inlets (legs) and three (3) pressure signals of the Reactor Coolant System (RCS).  

• The system takes into account the possible isolation of one or more cooling loops of the RCS.  

• The temperature control signal is worked out by eliminating the aberrant values and selecting the minimal value of the remaining ones.  

• The pressure control signal is calculated by eliminating the aberrant values and selecting  the maximal value of the remaining values.    The control is implemented by a fault-tolerant control system. It is a state of the art. Triple - Modular Redundant Architecture. The controller employs three isolated, parallel control systems and extensive diagnostics integrated into one system.  

• The control system is designed in such a way that a single failure of a component does not result in failure of the System to fulfill the safety function.

• The control system is designed to allow periodical tests and normal maintenance during operation, without loosing the control and protection.The geographical distrtibution of the control cabinets protects the system from common mode failure. The production of the systems go through intensive static and dynamic testing. A special simulator is designed and produced for this purpose. The simulator is very useful for on-site testing during the start-up of the reactor. The displays bellow show some dynamic testing results
