PART 21 REPORT - CORRECTIVE ACTION FOR FISHER INFORMATION NOTICE 2015-01 INSUFFICIENT
The following is a synopsis of information received via E-mail:
Fisher Information Notice (FIN) 2015-01 was published 3/18/2015 regarding Fisher Type 461 valve plug machining. FIN 2015-01 details an issue in which a valve plug was returned to Fisher after the customer discovered a machining error was present in the plug. This Type 461 valve plug is intended to have a groove machined across the seating surface to provide a controlled leak rate through the valve when the plug is on the seat. It has been determined that the corrective action implemented in association with FIN 2015-01 was insufficient to ensure accurate machining and to prevent reoccurrence of this issue.
This Part 21 Notification (issued as FIN 2017-05) applies to Type 461 Plugs sold or reworked since the publication date of FIN 2015-01. Specifically this notification applies to assembly item number 25A0413X162 that Fisher Controls International LLC (Fisher) supplied to Florida Power and Light (FPL) St. Lucie per FPL Order 2363439 (Fisher Order Number 025-X204270) and to item number 29A7841X052 that Fisher supplied to Entergy Waterford 3 per Entergy Order 10297987 (Fisher Order Number 026N-187174).
