Solenoid Panels

Type: Plant Life Extension (PLEX)
Scope of Supply: DESIGN ¦ SUBSTANTIATION ¦ BUILD/ TEST ¦ DELIVERY 
Client: EDF Energy – Dungeness B
Key Deliverables: 16 off Solenoid Valve Control Panels and Backup Air Systems

Project Overview

The second phase of a 3-phase project saw AMS engineer a solution and subsequently deliver a series of solenoid valve control panels and air receivers to enable the actuation of the Automatic Boiler Depressurisation System (ABDS) valve actuators, as part of the Boiler Lifetime Improvements Project at Dungeness B.

Why AMS?

AMS had previous success with the delivery of phase 1 of the project (20 off bespoke instrument cubicles) and were placed in prime position to deliver phase 2 of the project, where AMS’ known expertise in pneumatics systems were utilised.
