Procurement Engineering Standard Purchase Clause

Transcription

1 1.0 QUALIFICATION BY TESTING AND ANALYSIS This EQPR is intended to be used when buying valve positioners, regulators, actuators and spare parts manufactured by GE Masoneilan formerly known as Dresser Flow Control-Masoneilan (hereinafter GE Dresser Masoneilan) for use throughout Ontario Power Generation (OPG) sites in nuclear safety-related applications which require environmental qualification (EQ). Note: Dresser Masoneilan is currently part of GE Energy. OPG clause EQ DRESSFLOB is the applicable EQPR clause for the Safety Relief Valves and Safety Valves manufactured by former Dresser-Consolidated Operations currently GE Consolidated. OPG Engineer (see the Contract Standard for definition of Engineer ) generally assesses and qualifies electrical equipment for use in applications which require Environmental Qualification (EQ) by conducting qualification tests (or referring to qualification tests performed by others) whereas mechanical items are generally qualified by analysis. Once it has been established that an item is environmental qualified, it is necessary to ensure that successive purchases of the item shall be equivalent to the qualified item. In order to do so, it is necessary to clearly establish the critical characteristics of the qualified item so that these can be replicated and verified. These critical characteristics may be shown on one or more of a number of different documents including test reports, qualification reports, the manufacturer s catalogue, manufacturer s drawing(s), bill(s) of material, specification(s) etc. So as not to limit the generality of the foregoing list, the document that describes the critical characteristics that need to be replicated shall be referred to herein as the primary controlled document. For EQ materials it is essential that the primary controlled document clearly identifies the materials of construction as well as other critical characteristics of the item. EPRI NP-5652 and TR may be used as a guideline for a more detailed explanation of critical characteristics. The primary controlled document shall be selected by OPG Engineer and stipulated in OPG purchase order (P.O.) item description. In every instance, the content of the primary controlled document shall be under rigorous revision control. In instances when the primary controlled document defines most but not all critical characteristics, and in instances when the primary controlled document provides configuration or material selection options, the required characteristic or material option(s) shall be stipulated in the OPG purchase order (P.O.) item description. GE Dresser Masoneilan item shown in the OPG P.O. item description has been assessed and environmentally qualified by the OPG Engineer for use in nuclear safety-related applications based on the following primary controlled document(s): Valve Positioner(s) certified to - Dresser Report # TR-012, R01, Environmental Qualification of Dresser 2 Nuclear Control Valve (Item 105) for Wolsong 2, 3, 4. Actuators and spare parts as described in the GE Dresser Masoneilan certified drawings which have been accepted by OPG and are referenced in the P.O. item description. Pressure regulators and spare parts certified to: Dresser Test Report TR-045, R01, Environmental and Seismic Qualification Tests of Dresser Size 160 Actuator and Accessories for Qinshan NGS Unit 1 & 2 or Dresser Test Report TR-039, R00, Environmental and Seismic Qualification of Dresser Item 110, 3 Control Valve SCN543L0771, and Masoneilan North American Operations Dresser Valve & Controls Division Report No , R03, Generic Nuclear Safety-Related Qualification for Model 8005N Electro-pneumatic transducer and 77N-4 Airset per IEEE , IEEE , and IEEE This clause applies to OPG Purchase Orders placed on or after March 20, 2018 Page 1 of 6

2 2.0 CHANGES IN DESIGN AND SUBSTITUTION OF QUALIFIED MATERIALS Changes made to EQ items manufactured and supplied by GE Dresser Masoneilan that were originally tested or previously assessed and environmentally qualified by OPG are to be tracked. GE Dresser Masoneilan shall advise OPG in the event that changes take place in the following areas: design of the product, material/compounds used, manufacturing methods, non-destructive testing procedure, and test reports. Some changes, which may appear insignificant and not deem to be reported to the client (since fit, form, and function are met), can invalidate the equipment nuclear performances. Changes to non-metallic components are of particular interest to OPG. GE Dresser Masoneilan shall ensure contractual provisions and QA program requirements imposed on suppliers and sub-suppliers is such that GE Dresser Masoneilan will be notified of any such changes that may occur within the supply chain. If any of these changes take place then GE Dresser Masoneilan shall notify the OPG Buyer using the Vendor Parts/ Material Substitution Control form N-FORM during bidding or the Concession Application form N-FORM subsequent to contract award. As an alternative to the preceding paragraph, GE Dresser Masoneilan shall notify the OPG Buyer, using the same forms, if for any reason it is unable to provide assurance that there have been no such changes since the item was originally evaluated/ tested for use in a nuclear safety application. The OPG Buyer will forward all such notifications to the Design Authority in OPG. The responsible Design Authority shall make all decisions relating to the need to re-evaluate and/or re-test and the item. Although the OPG Design Authority may solicit GE Dresser Masoneilan s input to the decision, the decision of the OPG Design Authority will be final. GE Dresser Masoneilan is advised that: This item will be installed in a nuclear safety system. That system will be required to operate following a very unlikely but theoretically possible design basis accident. If such an accident occurred the item could be subjected to a harsh environment consisting of chemical and pressure transients, radiation, steam, and elevated temperature. It is possible that the design basis accident could occur at a time when the item has already been subjected to many years of normal operation when it is nearing the end of its useful operating life. This item has been rigorously evaluated /tested, and the OPG Engineer (see the Contract Standard for definition of Engineer ) expects that it will perform its intended safety function following exposure to this harsh environment. The Environmental Qualification Assessment (EQA) has established that the item may not perform its intended safety function if there is a substitution of materials, changes in design, or changes in manufacturing methods. This is especially true for changes or substitutions of non-metallic components used in the construction of this item. Some non metallic components are known to be subject to degradation in a harsh environment and can deteriorate quickly when exposed to steam, heat, or especially when exposed to high levels of radiation. The OPG Engineer accepts that changes in design, sub-suppliers, materials, and manufacturing methods may be necessary as technology and manufacturing processes change with time. The OPG Engineer also accepts that companies may not be able to track all changes that occur over a long period of time. It is The OPG Engineer s objective to minimize unnecessary changes that would necessitate a reevaluation of the item s ability to perform its intended safety function following a Design Basis Accident as even minor changes may dictate the need to retest or re-qualify the item. In any event, it will certainly dictate the need to evaluate the effect of the change, and a revision to the EQA to ensure that the new item will perform the same intended safety function as the item that was previously qualified. The "changes" referred to in this section are interpreted to mean any changes in materials of construction, changes in manufacturing processes that affect interchangeability, changes in form, fit and function, or any changes from the original design or performance requirements. Insignificant changes that do not affect any of these criteria (i.e. that do not result in a change in the item part number) are considered to be outside the scope of this requirement. This clause applies to OPG Purchase Orders placed on or after March 20, 2018 Page 2 of 6

3 3.0 QUALITY ASSURANCE PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS For the EQ items that GE Dresser Masoneilan manufacture/supply to OPG, GE Dresser Masoneilan shall implement and maintain a quality assurance program that provides assurance that GE Dresser Masoneilan tracks material substitutions, design changes, sub-supplier changes, manufacturing and non-destructive testing process changes that may occur during the course of time and that the items meet the design requirements and are equivalent to those originally evaluated and environmentally qualified by OPG. In order to provide such assurance, GE Dresser Masoneilan s QA program shall meet the requirements of minimum CSA CAN3-Z , or CSA N QA standards, including the requirement for product traceability.

GE Dresser Masoneilan s QA Manual as audited by NUPIC and reviewed/accepted by OPG to the requirements of CSA CAN3-Z , or CSA N QA standards along with the requirements specified in the purchase order is acceptable to OPG to meet this requirement. Non-conformances with a disposition to Repair or Use-as-is require the concurrence of all responsible parties, and submission to OPG for acceptance. A valid certificate of authorization issued by by an authorized registrar (i.e. ASME, TSSA, other Canadian provincial jurisdiction etc) shall be required, in accordance with the CSA N and Update No. 2 standard. All the GE Dresser Masoneilan items and spare parts shall be traceable to GE Dresser Masoneilan audited location in Jacksonville, FL, USA. GE Dresser Masoneilan s distributor in Canada shall also implement a quality assurance program that: Provides assurance that there is no substitution of product specified in the purchase orders without prior approval. Such requests are to be submitted to the OPG Engineer for approval using N-FORM-10393, Provides rigorous controls to ensure that batch trace controls are not lost during the process of receiving, storing, packaging, and shipping the subject products. Conveys/transfers information to and from GE Dresser Masoneilan in an accurate and timely fashion. In order to provide the required assurance, GE Dresser Masoneilan Canadian distributor s quality assurance program shall meet the requirements of CSA CAN3-Z or CSA N (distribution activities). 4.0 INSPECTION AND TEST PLAN AND SPECIAL PROCESS PROCEDURE ACCEPTANCE In accordance with CSA CAN3-Z299.2/3-85 or CSA N299.2/3-16 QA standards, GE Dresser Masoneilan shall prepare the Inspection and Test Plan (I&TP) document as part of the QA program requirements. A copy of the completed I&TP, signed by the authorized QA representative as a minimum, shall be submitted to OPG with the shipment. However, OPG review and acceptance of the I&TP prior to initiating the work is required only when the Inspection and Test Plan Submission Requirement clause QA-I&TP is specified elsewhere in the OPG Contract P.O. This includes the situation for initial procurement of new items not previously manufactured and supplied to OPG. GE Dresser Masoneilan shall make no significant change to the I&TP, critical process procedures, or NDT procedures without notification to, and acceptance from the OPG Engineer for those changes. This notification is to be received at least 4 weeks prior to the commencement of the work to be changed and shall be accompanied by a detailed description of the planned change (including detailed procedures where applicable). In the event that a delay in receiving OPG acceptance for changes will in turn delay completion of the work GE Dresser Masoneilan is to notify the OPG s Buyer at least one week in advance of the expected delay; in order that OPG Buyer can expedite OPG Engineer review and acceptance and thus avoid said delay. This clause applies to OPG Purchase Orders placed on or after March 20, 2018 Page 3 of 6
