Synopsis of Nuclear Reactor Retubing Controls Automation System Project

  • Situation: A nuclear power generation company committed to upgrading its operations with new reactors.
  • Issues: Aging reactors subject to problems such as water leakage, corrosion, and contamination (fine powdery particulate—iron oxide activated to isotope FE55—as a result of corrosion) that are potentially hazardous and costly to deal with.
  • Requirement: Upgrade of 2 reactors (including re-tubing operations).
  • Technology: Unity Pro IEC 61131-3 application software/Modicon Quantum PLC platform; GE Iconics Series HMI; Ethernet; Kepware OPC driver; Kollmorgen drives; PICS™ simulation.
