Westinghouse wins contract for Bulgarian nuclear plant

6 September 2006 -- Westinghouse Electric Co. today announced that it has been awarded a contract to provide Primary Side Chemistry Monitoring Systems for Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant (KNPP) Units 5 and 6 in Bulgaria.

Westinghouse will provide an on-line chemistry analysis system to replace manual sample collection and laboratory analysis of 16 primary chemistry parameters. The chemistry system will provide information to the Kozloduy plant computer system for display in the control room and at other Ovation work stations. KNPP Units 5 and 6 are 953 MW pressurized water reactors of VVER design.

Westinghouse will supply the hardware system, as well as project management, system integration, site activities and installation. While some preliminary installation work will occur in 2007, the main system installation for Unit 5 is scheduled for spring 2008 and, for Unit 6, in fall 2008.

The Westinghouse Primary Side Chemistry On-Line Monitoring System monitors the chemical parameters of the primary circuit and provides plant personnel with information they need to implement manual corrective actions during plant operation. These manual corrective actions are required to maintain optimal chemical parameters for proper and reliable operation of the unit. The project includes the design, supply, installation and commissioning of the equipment.
