Phoenix
Inspection Systems Limited has announced that it has recently been awarded a contract
by Framatome to supply custom-design scanning solutions for non-destructive
testing inspections within the primary circuit of Boiling Water Reactors (BWR)
and Pressurised Water Reactors (PWR) within nuclear power plants in Finland.
The automated
solutions will be deployed inside the Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) using
remotely operated vehicles to inspect branch nozzles. In-service inspections
are critical to monitor and maintain the integrity of the nozzles and to ensure
the performance and efficiency of the reactor.
Phoenix ISL is proud to be awarded this
challenging project and with over 35 years’ experience in developing and manufacturing customised
solutions for the nuclear power industry; Framatome will benefit from the
experience and extensive expertise of the team at Phoenix ISL to deliver a
fleet of efficient ultrasonic NDT scanning solutions.
