Functional Uses of Temperature Detectors:

Temperature sensing devices like as RTDs and thermocouples, give necessary temperature indications for the safe and continued operation of the DOE facility fluid systems.  These temperature indications might involve:

1.   Reactor hot and cold leg temperatures

2.   Pressurizer temperature

3.    Purification demineralizer inlet temperature

4.    Cooling water to and from various components

5.    Secondary feed temperature

STATE   the   three   basic   functions   of   temperature detectors.

DESCRIBE the two alternate methods of determining temperature while the normal temperature sensing devices are inoperable.

STATE the two environmental concerns that could affect the accuracy and reliability of temperature detection instrumentation.
