Environmental testing of a prototypic digital safety channel

  • 1. Oak Ridge National Lab., TN (United States)

Description

Increasing maintenance costs and a lack of spare parts are forcing an increasing number of utilities to consider upgrading analog safety systems with newer, more readily available technology such as fiber optic transmission systems and microprocessors. In addition, advanced light-water reactor (ALWR) manufacturers will make even more extensive use of such technologies in the design of both control and safety (Class 1E) systems
