The Separate tank is designed to collect moisture separated in MSR. It is a horizontal cylindrical vessel which consists of a body, a manhole, inlet and discharge pipes inside the device. Internal partition with shut-off devices ensures the specified level of the separator in different operating modes of the NPP unit. The equipment weighs 41 tons and has a 50-year operating life.
Design documentation was developed by the nuclear plants division’s specialists of the Department of Nuclear Engineering Equipment ZIO-Podolsk JSC, they also provide design support for manufacturing. Previously the plant manufactured and delivered similar devices for new power units of Novovoronezhskaya NPP, Leningradskaya NPP and 2 units of Belorus NPP.
Atomenergomash JSC is a complete supplier of all the equipment for the reactor compartment and produces a significant part of the equipment for the turbine hall at Rooppur NPP with a VVER-1200-type reactor unit. The division's enterprises create reactors, steam generators, pumping and heat exchange equipment.
Rooppur NPP is designed and built by a Russian project. The NPP will consist of two power units with an electrical capacity of 1,200 MW each and VVER reactors of generation 3+.
