Nuclear industry approved limit switches
14 October 2010
For more than 25 years, Bartec LOCA limit switches have been used wherever the positions of movable plant parts or units have to be monitored under loss-of-coolant accident conditions within the nuclear industry.
These LOCA limit switches were originally developed for use in German KONVOI-type nuclear power stations and they have been type-tested by accredited inspection laboratories. Since then, the Bartec LOCA limit switches have been further developed and undergone regular certification according to the German Nuclear Safety Standard 3505, whereby 100% compatibility was experienced with limit switches already installed – even those supplied 25 years ago - was always issued - Now that is truly upward compatibility and ensures future proof supply.
