    [ Focus on Chemical Machinery Equipment Network ] On December 15, China National Nuclear Corporation’s Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant achieved its 30th anniversary of safe operation
    .
    For 30 years, the people of Qinshan have written the chapter of "the glory of the country" with the spirit of hard work, and relying on their insistence on independent innovation, this has become the "cradle" of China's nuclear power industry and continuously nourishes the development of China's nuclear power industry.

    .

     
    Chemical machinery and equipment network hotspots pay attention to chemical machinery and equipment
    In addition, Qinshan Nuclear Power and Haiyan County jointly built the first nuclear energy heating energy-saving project demonstration project in the South.
    It was recently completed and put into operation.
    It is planned to achieve 4 million square meters of nuclear energy heating area by 2025, covering the main urban area of ​​Haiyan and the whole area of ​​Shupu Town.
    , Became the "Southern Nuclear Energy Heating Demonstration Window", sending cleaner warmth to the south of the Yangtze River
    .

     

    Nuclear power has the characteristics of clean, high-efficiency, safety and stability, and good economy.
    It is a high-quality clean energy that can bear the basic load of the grid
    .
    In recent years, with the reduction of non-renewable energy such as coal and petroleum and the impact of increasingly serious environmental problems, countries around the world have continued to plan and develop nuclear power energy to meet energy needs
    .

     

      China's "Energy Development Strategic Action Plan (2014-2020)", "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for Electric Power Development" and "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for Nuclear Industry Development" put forward clear development goals for China's nuclear power development
    .
    Among them, the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for Nuclear Industry Development" clearly stated that China's nuclear power installed capacity will reach 58 million kilowatts by 2020, and the newly-started machine assembly capacity will reach 30 million kilowatts.
    Under the policy guidance, China's nuclear power construction is progressing steadily
    .

     

      While the development of nuclear power promotes the progress of the national economy, it also drives the development of related industries
    .
    However, the safe operation of nuclear power plants is inseparable from the guarantee of nuclear power instrumentation
    .

     
    Instrumentation
      Nuclear power meters generally refer to appliances or equipment used to detect, measure, calculate, and display physical quantities, material components, and physical parameters in various process systems in nuclear power plants
    .
    Nuclear power meters can be divided into temperature meters , pressure meters, flow meters, liquid level meters, mechanical measurement meters, regulating valves and actuators, analysis meters, radiation monitoring meters, and other meters and devices
    .

     
    Thermometers
      At present, the digital instrumentation and control of nuclear industry in China that have put into operation of nuclear power units are still mainly imported from foreign brands
    .
    Although a major step has been taken in the localization of instrumentation and control of nuclear power units under construction and to be built, there is still a gap in core technology compared with foreign advanced technologies.
    In particular, key components such as mid-to-high-end chips, instrumentation, and analysis instruments are still imported brands.
    , The core database technology, core algorithm and security control software also rely on foreign countries to a certain extent
    .

     

      In the context of the current changing international situation, the localization of key nuclear power instruments and meters has a long way to go and is of great significance
    .
    Nuclear power instrumentation is an important part of nuclear power equipment.
    Actively promoting the localization of nuclear-grade instruments and important non-nuclear-grade instruments is an important technical guarantee for the development of safer, more efficient, and digital nuclear power plants in China
    .

     

      In recent years, under the guidance of the "independent development of nuclear power" policy, China has made significant progress in the localization of nuclear power equipment
    .
    For example, the large-scale advanced pressurized water propulsion major special project "Development of nuclear power pumps, valves, electrical equipment and measuring instruments" jointly implemented by the Shanghai Nuclear Engineering Institute and the United Nations Nuclear Automated Main steam isolation valves, radiation monitoring instruments, etc.
    , have improved the independent design, manufacturing, testing capabilities and industrial level of nuclear power instrumentation equipment in China, and realized the upgrade of products from the second to the third generation
    .

     

      At present, China's nuclear power construction is entering a new era.
    The rapid development of nuclear power and the requirement to increase the localization rate of nuclear power equipment have created good development opportunities for nuclear power instrumentation companies
    .
    Therefore, the top priority for domestic enterprises is to focus on the independent research and development of core basic components of nuclear power instrumentation, strengthen technological innovation capabilities, so that nuclear instrumentation and equipment manufacturing can truly be industrialized and localized, achieve breakthroughs in key technologies, and improve China’s nuclear power industry.
    "Independent manufacturing" capability
