JSC "CDBMB" (a part of Machine Building Division of Rosatom – “Atomenergomash”) has delivered a batch of equipment to Paksh Nuclear Power Plant (Hungary). The batch includes guiding vanes with heat screens for scheduled maintenance of reactor coolant pumps GCNA-317.
Reactor coolant pump sets (RCPS) is an essential and integral part of the reactor plant. RCPS provides intensive circulation of coolant in the reactor primary circuit. NPP safety operation is directly related to reliable and continuous operation of RCPS. Paksh NPP uses “VVER-440” reactors with specially conditioned water as a coolant in the reactors' primary circuit.
"Central Design Bureau of Machine Building" is the only designer and manufacturer of reactor coolant pump sets for water-cooled power reactors (VVER-type) in Russia. CDBMB’s engineers, design engineers and test engineers develop pump sets that fulfill international standards of nuclear power industry. Reactor coolant pump sets of JSC "CDBMB" have been successfully applied at NPPs in Russia and foreign countries.
For decades "Central Design Bureau of Machine Building" (established in 1945) has been developing and producing high-technology equipment for nuclear industry: reactor coolant pumps (RCP), canned and console pumps, feeding and emergency pumps, and a wide range of remotely-operated equipment for radioactive material handling.
