Today, over 80% of all North American reactors rely exclusively on Ultra Electronics, NSPI temperature sensors for critical reactor coolant monitoring. Our nuclear qualified pressure transmitters are used for safety related and BOP measurements at over 20% of US nuclear power plants. Ultra Electronics, NSPI products have been qualified for use in all of the leading reactor technologies, including PWR, BWR, CANDU (PHWR), and APWR.
We are also proud to be team members of the Generation III and III+ reactor technology platforms, including the System 80+, AP600 and AP1000.
In 1989 we acquired the manufacturing rights for the Foxboro N-E10 Series nuclear qualified pressure transmitters. In 1993, we purchased Camille Bauer, Inc (previously known as Westinghouse-Veritrak and Tobar), a major US based manufacturer of pressure transmitters for the nuclear power industry. More recently, we seismically qualified and became the exclusive supplier of the Invensys (Foxboro) N-I/A Series nuclear qualified pressure transmitters. The N-I/A Series combine the advantages of digital electronics with the reliability and performance of ion-implanted, micro machined silicon pressure sensor technology.
We have received the necessary certification to supply critical Class 1E and non classified temperature detectors for civil nuclear equipment in China from the country’s National Nuclear Safety Administration. All overseas companies must obtain certification, formally known as a “Letter of Confirmation on the Registration in the People’s Republic of China of Overseas Organizations Associated with Civil Nuclear Safety Equipment”, or HAF604 Certification, before they can work with civil nuclear safety equipment in China.
Ultra Electronics, NSPI is now globally acknowledged to be the premier supplier of temperature and pressure measurement instrumentation and fiber optic networking solutions to the nuclear power generation industry.
Ultra Electronics, NSPI Nuclear Quality Program:
Our Quality Program meets the stringent needs of the global nuclear power generation industry. In addition to being ISO 9001:2008 registered we are compliant with 10CFR50 Appendix B, 10CFR21, ANSI N45.2, ASME NQA-1, ASME NCA3800 and CSA Can3-Z299.1.
Nuclear Qualified / Safety Related / Class 1E Products:
- RTDs
- Thermocouples
- Thermowells
- Pressure Transmitters
- Temperature Transmitters
- Fiber Optic Analog Data Links, Contact Closures, Multiplexers & Repeaters
Ultra Electronics, NSPI nuclear qualified temperature and pressure measurement products feature a variety of performance and accident specification profiles to meet the application requirements of virtually every reactor type. We offer products suited for mild environments to pre
ssure transmitters and temperature sensors designed for highest performance under the most severe of environments.
Other products for the nuclear power industry include fiber optic analog and digital data links, contact closures, multiplexers and repeaters. These provide significant advantages over copper based signal transmission, particularly in high EMI/RFI environments. Most of our fiber products can be used in almost any network configuration, independent of topology, and are compatible with virtually every type of fiber optic cable.
Commercial Grade / Non-Safety Related / Balance of Plant (BOP) Products:
- RTDs
- Thermocouples
- Thermowells
- Pressure Transmitters
- Temperature Transmitters
- Fiber Optic Analog Data Links, Contact Closures, Multiplexers & Repeaters
Our Nuclear team has many years of experience in serving the nuclear market and is available to assist you in the selection of the correct nuclear qualified products for your application.
