Equipment Condition
Unit is fully operational and making product water at the required production rate. Product water is being
discharged to the distribution tanks.
GENERAL
This work package describes how to maintain the TWPS during normal operation once the unit is up and
running. The TWPS is capable of sustained operation without routine shut down. However, the TQG that
powers the TWPS requires routine PMCS shut down. Therefore, it is to shut down the TPWS as required
to support the generator PMCS schedule. It is also necessary to shut down the TWPS if it becomes
necessary to interchange chemical pumps or raw water and distribution pumps.
