Subject: Powernet: Question on HEPA Vacuum Programs

Questions on HEPA Vacuum Programs (Sent by Sun Lee for Dom Magda):

Perry Nuclear Power Plant would like to know the following:

1. Do you use locking devices or seals to prevent inadvertent access to 
electrical cords on vacuums?
Yes...Locks on the head/body seal and locks on the electrical plug or air line 
connection


2. Does the procedure cover the use of locking device?
Yes...procedure mandates locking of the head/body seal and controlling 
inadvertent use

3. Industry guidance recommends annual filter integrity testing or testing 
following opening the vacuum is this performed?  Is this conducted on a yearly 
basis or each time a vacuum is changed out?
PAO (DOP) testing is performed annually and after HEPA changes

4. Is it sufficient enough to consider the purchase of DOP tested hepa filters 
with certificate of conformance as testing to meet INPO guidelines? If so how 
was that handled by a white paper?

It does not matter if the filter is HEPA certified....once it is 
installed...the unit has to be tested to ensure proper filtration

5. Vendor or manufacture to purchase testing unit to meet standards?
We purchased our PAO tester from Air Techniques International (www.atitest.com/)



6. Can I receive a copy of the procedure that governs vacuum control program 
and testing of units?
Yes...contact North Anna
