Equipment Obsolescence Solutions

As part of our core competency, NTS focuses on the selection of new nuclear grade components, their qualification, and, if needed, their dedication for safety related applications. We currently offer qualified replacements for many electrical and mechanical safety-related components that are no longer available from the OEM. NTS certifies equipment for Class 1E installation for mild or harsh environments to IEEE Standard 323 (Standard for Qualifying Class 1E Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations) and IEEE Standard 344 (Recommended Practice for Seismic Qualification of Class 1E Equipment for Nuclear Power Generating Stations). These systems include instrumentation, digital recorders, batteries, gauges, motors, panels, and chillers from manufacturers such as Bussman, Siemens, Yokogawa and GE. NTS can also provide engineering evaluations to determine the best potential replacement from over 200 manufacturers of nuclear grade equipment. With a focus on solving plant needs, NTS leads the industry in digital upgrades, MCC bucket replacements, motor rewinds, governor rebuilds, modifications to or design of replacement safety-related systems, and instrumentation panel and component design. All programs are conducted in accordance with 10 CFR 50 (Domestic Licensing Of Production And Utilization Facilities) App. B and 10CFR21 (Reporting Of Defects And Noncompliance).
