Information Notice 96-48, Supplement 1: Motor-operated Valve Performance 
Issues Dated July 24, 1998                                               
                                                                         
The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission is issuing this information notice
to alert addressees to recent guidance from Limitorque Corporation for   
predicting torque output from its motor actuators used to open and close 
motor-operated valves (MOVs). This supplement to NRC Information Notice  
(IN) 96-48 (August 21, 1996), "Motor-Operated Valve Performance Issues," 
revises the information on motor actuator output presented earlier. The  
information in IN 96-48 on the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)  
MOV Performance Prediction Program and on the failure of MOV keys is not 
affected by this supplement's updated information on motor actuator      
output.
