Installation of the core catcher has been launched at the El-Dabaa NPP Unit 1.<\/p>\n
The core catcher is an important element for safety of the NPP with VVER-1200 reactor, which, in case of a severe accident with core destruction and RPV melt-through, will ensure safety of the environment and people as it will keep corium fragments within the reactor containment. The core catcher is a vessel installed on supports under the reactor pressure vessel and consists of the following main elements: casing, filler, maintenance platform, cantilever truss in assembly with bottom plate, and water supply valve.<\/p>\n
The components of the core catcher for the El Dabaa NPP Unit 1 were delivered to the site in spring and summer of 2023.<\/p>\n
All components of the core catcher were manufactured at JSC \u201cTyazhmash\u201d, where experts from the Penza Branch of JSC \u201cVO \u201cSafety\u201d took part in the conformity assessment.<\/p>\n
In the near future, the components of the core catcher for Unit 2 will be delivered to the site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
