SAFE ELECTRONICS IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS

How do you modernise 40-year-old electronics without compromising safety?

The Oskarshamn nuclear power plant contains thousands of electronic boards from the 1980s. Lundinova developed modern electronics to replace obsolete parts. Safety in the industry is extreme and the development process is designed to catch any errors long before commissioning in the power plant.

TECHNOLOGY

  • New electronics must precisely emulate the behavior of the old

  • Extreme reliability

  • Rigorous testing

  • Working under industry-specific safety standards
