Case of Use
01 Product needs
- Inspector's direct diving inspection : Diving cost and inspection time needed
- Direct inspection after draining ➔ Water filling/draining time and cost
- Gradual increase in radiation dose due to increase in operation cycle ➔ Concerns about increased exposure to inspectors
02 Advantage
- Prevention of safety accidents in NPP radiation/dangerous areas
- Reduction of exposure through IRWST remote real-time inspection- Minimize the risk of safety accidents and improve efficiency
- Improved inspection reliability with digital data
- Reduction of maintenance time
- More than 8 hours of continuous work- No drainage/replenishment procedures required
- Reduction of maintenance cost
