Product catalog summary
Overview: The CL86 Plus is an advanced sensor system designed for monitoring spent fuel pools (SFP) in nuclear power plants. It integrates continuous level, point level, and temperature measurements using thermal dispersion technology, ensuring robustness and reliability.
Key Features:
  • Continuous water level monitoring with a range up to 30 feet (9 meters).
  • Multiple point level wet/dry indication and alarms.
  • Water temperature measurement from 32°F to 212°F (0°C to 100°C).
  • 1E qualified, exceeding design-basis event requirements.
  • Suitable for new and retrofit SFP applications.
  • Exclusive in-situ verification option for operational checks without altering the pool.
Specifications:
  • Material: 316L stainless steel for sensor and junction box, ensuring durability and protection.
  • Accuracy: Continuous level ±2% of full scale, point level ±0.25 inches (6.4 mm), temperature ±2°F (±1°C).
  • Seismic and radiation qualifications ensure reliability under extreme conditions.
  • Electronics: Independent sets for each measurement, remote mounted up to 1000 feet (300 meters).
  • Outputs: Continuous level and temperature via 4-20mA, point level via relays.
Installation: The CL86 Plus features a unified probe assembly tailored to specific application lengths. It includes a rugged, water-tight enclosure for the junction box and remote-mounted electronics for easy integration into control systems.
Station Blackout (SBO) Optimization: FCI offers guidance on product selection and operation strategies to optimize the CL86 Plus for SBO scenarios.
Individual Instrument Solutions: For specific needs, FCI provides dedicated instruments for continuous level, multi-point level, and temperature measurements.
FCI Advantage: As a leading manufacturer of thermal dispersion technology, FCI has been a 1E qualified supplier since 1978, providing solutions to over a hundred nuclear power plants globally.

FCI Nuclear Spent Fuel Pool Products-1

Nuclear Power Plant Solutions Spent Fuel Pool Multi-Monitor System CL86 Plus: Continuous Level, Point Level and Temperature The CL86 Plus is an extension of FCI’s nuclear industry proven thermal dispersion technology, 1E qualified CL86. CL86 Plus combines the three critical measurements of continuous level, point level and temperature into an integrated multi-variable solution designed specifically for spent fuel pool (SFP) monitoring. Although integrated, the sensors and their associated electronics are completely independent from each other to provide the robustness, diversity and reliability required in nuclear power plant installations. The CL86 Plus provides discrete and independent outputs of each measurement for interface with the plant control room and alarm systems. CL86 Continuous Level Sensor Continuous Water Level Multiple Point Level Wet / Dry Indication and Alarms Water Temperature Recent events at Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant revealed the critical need to monitor water level and conditions within the spent fuel pool. As a long-term, leading supplier of level, temperature and flow instrumentation to the nuclear power industry, FCI has responded to this pressing situation with a specially modified version of our proven and 1E approved CL86. The CL86 Plus solution will meet or exceed all parameters currently being proposed by plant operators and regulatory agencies for SFP monitoring. 1E Qualified Exceeds Design-Basis Event New and Retrofit SFP Applications Exclusive In-Situ Verification Option

Individual, Discrete Instrument Solutions The CL86 Plus consists of a unified probe assembly immersed in the SFP and manufactured to the exact length specified for the application. The sensor wires and electronics interface junction box has a rugged metal enclosure that is water-tight and immune to falling debris. For installations challenged by overhead constraints the probe assembly can be manufactured with strategically placed flex-joints. The electronics are remote mounted, up to 1000 feet [300 meters] in a stainless steel NEMA rated enclosure for installation in a mild environment, and for...
