The last of the 4 electric engines of the main circulation pumps has been installed at its proper location at the Leningrad NPP under construction
The last of the 4 electric engines of the main circulation pumps has been fully installed at the Leningrad NPP currently under construction.
The works were broken down into several stages when each equipment unit was assembled and then lifted to the mark of +26.00 at the first power block’s reactor building.
The engine weighing 46 tons was lifted using a transport trestle crane and installed at its proper location at the mark of +14.00 using a polar crane.
The main circulation pumps’ engines are designed to initiate coolant circulation at the primary coolant circuit.
The electric equipment for the main circulation pumps was manufactured at Elektrotiazhmash-Privod in the city of Lysva and assembled by the 90th Building and construction department at the NPP construction site.
Shortly, that department can start working on engine electric cable piping.
Upon completion of those activities, the team is to start trials of the pumping equipment’s electric part.
The Leningrad NPP is an affiliate company for Rosenergoatom Concern OJSC. The plant is based in the city of Sosnovy Bor, 40 km to the west from Saint Petersburg at the Gulf of Finland shore. The Leningrad NPP is the first Russian nuclear power plant having RBMK-1000 reactors (uranium-graphite channel-type thermal neutron reactors). The NPP exploits 4 power blocks with the electric capacity of 1000 megawatt each. Also, pursuant to the NPP-2006 project, 1,2 VVER-1200 power blocks included into The State Atomic Energy Corporation ROSATOM long-term plan are being constructed. Rosenergoatom Concern OJSC is the owner and developer of the project. Holding TITAN-2 is the primary contractor. ATOMPROEKT is the general designer.
