The remotely operated Stinger tool provides Boiling Water Reactor (BWR) nuclear power plants the ability to clean and perform In-Vessel Visual Inspection (IVVI) functions during critical path activities, thereby reducing cost, radiation dose, and critical outage time.
The Nuclear Measurement Analysis and Control (NUMAC) product line is a best-in-class family of monitoring instruments designed to improve plant performance and increase plant longevity.
Ensuring piping system integrity in modern plants has never been more critical to improving operational reliability and reducing financial risks.
GEH’s Buried Pipe Inspection Service offers intelligent, state-of-the-art, self-propelled robotic equipment that is capable of navigating complex underground piping systems, which saves customers substantial time and money.
GE Hitachi Parts Asset Management Solutions (PAMS) enable the proactive identification of spare part issues, as well as delivering solutions for BWR plant obsolescence issues.
Portfolio includes: Expanded Exchange Service Program (EESP), Engineering Services, Material Solutions, System Assessment Report, Inventory Management, and PAMS Digitized
Surface Mitigation (Water Jet Peening and Laser Peening)
Very rarely, some materials used in both Boiling Water Reactors (BWRs) and Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) can be susceptible to stress corrosion cracking caused by environmental conditions.
Our solutions address this concern by reducing residual tensile stress near metal surfaces and are effective in mitigating Intergranular Stress Corrosion Cracking (IGSCC) and fatigue failure.
Spent Fuel Pool Level Monitor is a system that provides accurate measurement of the Spent Fuel Pool (SFP) water level and temperature. Through NUMAC electronics located up to 1000 ft. from the SFP, the system supports safe and efficient plant operation while meeting the world’s toughest seismic requirements. It has been successfully deployed in Japan.
Jet Pump Anti-Vibration Solution
The Jet Pump Anti-Vibration Solution (AVS) utilizes hard stops, compliant stops, and slip joint clamps to mitigate vibration, making it a robust and effective way to address the issue.
Feedwater Debris Strainer (FWDS)
Captures and retains debris as small as 0.016 in. (including brush bristles) in BWRs and Pressurized Water Reactors (PWRs) to prevent potential fuel failures.
