Mitsubishi Electric accordingly will promote the MELTAC Nplus S controller as a solution for aging and obsolete analog or digital controllers in the U.S. Market.
MELTAC is a control and monitoring system supporting the safe operation of nuclear power plants. Acclaimed for its reliability and quality, MELTAC is deployed in 38 nuclear power plants, primarily in Japan and China.
MELTAC Nplus S was developed under Mitsubishi Electric’s quality assurance program that is fully compliant with 10 CFR 50 Appendix B criteria, a regulation governing U.S. nuclear power plant safety systems.
Mitsubishi Electric energy systems center senior general manager Takahisa Kurokawa said: “Digital instrumentation and control system upgrades in U.S. nuclear power plants must meet strict NRC regulatory requirements. To meet these requirements, we developed a 10 CFR 50 Appendix B compliant quality assurance program (QAP) to achieve in-house control of all aspects of MELTAC Nplus S design, manufacturing, and testing.”
For over 40 years, Mitsubishi Electric has been providing instrumentation and control systems to Japanese and Chinese nuclear power plants.
The NRC’s recent acceptance of MELTAC Nplus S for use in U.S. nuclear power plants will allow Mitsubishi Electric to provide its high-quality product and related design and testing services to U.S. nuclear power plant customers.
