--- Quote from: Lorrie Henson on Aug 30, 2009, 09:19 ---HPSI --- shouldn't this be High Pressure Safety Injection instead of "Low"?

I would agree with that,

HPSI/LPSI pronunced hipsee and lipsee are terms I recall from working at BWR's for high or low pressure safety injection. I have also seen HPCI/LPCI which is the same thing but refers to core injection directly. HPI/LPI are basically the same systems but are system designations from B&W PWR plants.



maybe helps a little

Posing a question here ....  Another RP and I disagree on the acronym uR/hr as it pertains to the Ludlum Model-19.  Is it micro REM or micro Roentgen?
