Objective
Objective
Objective
The original SG control valves had to be replaced by modern Western valves. CIS manufactured valves of the required quality were not available. Therefore a joint venture was founded by Tchechov Works and Siemens.
Result
Objective
The aim of the project was the replacement of the existing safety valves on the steam generators on one of the 4 Units by modern safety valves. The objective included supply of equipment, related services, spare parts, auxiliary equipment and tools.
Objective
The present signalisation was considered unreliable. The sensors did not work properly and have led to the unintentional start of the fire fighting system.
The project covers the supply of the following equipment:

The project includes procurement of special maintenance equipment for large scale repair and replacement of heavy components like steam generators, pipes and valves.
The envisaged tools and equipment include:
Objective
This project consists of replacement of the current 2 (two) booster pumps for the feed water pumps in one Balakovo NPP.
Result
This project was combined with project R1.02/96A and jointly tendered, contracted and supplied.

Result
This project was combined with project R1.02/95G and jointly tendered, contracted and supplied.
Background
Steam flow meters originally installed on the main steam lines are not reliable, and their failure led to several reactor scrams in the past, because steam flow measurement is used for controlling steam generator water level.
Background
6kV circuit breakers originally installed in the units at Balakovo NPP are of the VES-6 type, and the related cabinets are of KE-6 type. Their supplier is Rovno high voltage equipment plant, Ukraine.
Introduction
Objectives
The project aimed to the modernization of the Fuel Loading Machine (FLM) at Balakovo NPP, in order to meet the machine availability and in compliance with the operation requirements of the NPP.
Objective R1.02/93
This “On-Site-Assistance”, in short “OSA”, project deals with the increase of the safety culture on the NPP. As in all other cases, the OSA was performed by an EU utility, working with a team of Western and Russian experts.
