ISA 67.03

Abstract

This standard covers identification and quantitative measurement of reactor coolant system leakage in light water cooled power reactors. Leak detection for gas and liquid metal cooled reactors and for containment building structures surrounding the reactor coolant pressure boundary is not covered in this standard. <br><strong>Purpose</strong> <br>The purpose of this standard is to standardize criteria, methods, and procedures for assuring the design and operational adequacy of reactor coolant pressure boundary leak detection systems used in light water cooled nuclear power plants. A further objective is to encourage design improvements yielding increased utility and reliability of reactor coolant leakage detection systems.
