Safety in nuclear power industry starts with reliable equipment for nuclear power plants. The implementation of modern technologies and compliance with international standards minimizes risks, protects people and the environment, and ensures stable energy supply for a country's energy independence.
Euipment for Nuclear Power Plants: Our Solutions
RadICS platform and RadICS B platform are two state-of-the-art technological products by Radiy that combine scalability, safety and innovative technologies. Both platforms, as part of Instrumentation and Control (I&C) systems, can perform critical control and protection functions for NPP equipment, meeting the most stringent requirements of international standards for functional safety, cybersecurity, etc.
The digital I&C platforms are based on a logic module, basic Input/Output (I/O) modules and other special modules located in a seismically-qualified chassis. Thanks to their modular structure, the platforms can be easily adapted to the needs of any NPP facility and equipment.
Innovative Solutions for NPPs and Other Branches of Industry by Radiy
RadICS platform and RadICS B platform have a flexible and scalable architecture for I&C systems of any type and size. Built-in watchdog technology and functional self-diagnostics reduce the risk of common cause failures. FPGA technology enables fast and deterministic system response times of 5 ms.
Comprehensive self-diagnostics with a coverage rate of more than 99% significantly reduces the number of hidden critical failures and optimizes maintenance costs. A high degree of integration allows up to 440 I/O signals of various types to be received, processed, generated and sent in a single chassis. A user-friendly software design environment and hardware of executing end-user logic make it possible to design and execute a system logic of any complexity.
International Recognition and Certification
On July 31, 2019, the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (U.S. NRC) officially approved the Safety Evaluation Report on the RadICS platform equipment. It confirmed the compliance of the Platform equipment with the most stringent international safety standards.
On April 17, 2020, three new modules were added to the list of certified equipment: Wide Range Analog Inputs Module (WAIM), RTD Inputs Module (RIM) and Thermocouple Inputs Module (TIM). In addition to the modules, new cable assemblies were added to the certification documents.
In 2014, the RadICS Platform received exida certification for compliance with IEC 61508:2010 with functional safety level SIL3 even in a single-channel configuration and continues to confirm the compliance every three years.
Thus, RadICS is not just a set of equipment for nuclear power plants, but a reliable solution for safe and efficient control, recognized internationally.
RadICS B Platform – Accessible Solution for Industrial Applications
RadICS B is designed following the RadICS Platform development methodology and has almost a complete set of all its diagnostic, functional, safety and cybersecurity features. RadICS B is designed specifically for industrial application and (compared to RadICS) is a more cost-effective and accessible solution for process automation.
