Neutron Shielding Wall Penetration

Main description

Radiation shielding walls – e.g. neutron and gamma radiation in NPPs, heavy ion, proton, or neutron and gamma radiation in nuclear research facilities like accelerators or medical institutes especially radiation therapy, have often to be penetrated for cabling and pipe routing. These penetrations might be located in areas where maximum shielding has to be ensured. The issue gets even more complex if these cabling or piping also needs to be installed in a removable manner.

Framatome Flexible Radiation Plugging technology ensures full shielding efficiency of penetrated walls. Planning and preparatory work are reduced to a minimum allowing a quick installation and – if required – a later easy re-emptying of the penetrations and removing of any inserted installations.
