Contrinex’s Uniquely Robust Inductive Sensors Trusted on Crane Within Nuclear Power Plant Reactor - Automation Magazine

Contrinex’s uniquely robust inductive sensors are trusted in a wide variety of demanding or critical applications, with an extreme example being their use in a nuclear power plant. The sensor is used to verify that a grab on a specialised crane is closed when lifting. The pressurised-water reactor utilises fuel rods containing radioactive material, which are kept immersed in water. During operation, bundles of fuel rods are moved using a crane f…
