Ageing & Obsolescence

Securing Long-Term Safety and Operational Confidence Through CCR Alarm Modernisation Replacement CCR Hardwired Fire Alarm System

Hinkley Point B’s hardwired CCR alarm system was replaced to QA Grade 2, preserving operator familiarity and ensuring long-term reliability.

RAETP Alarm Management System

EDF Energy – Heysham 1

The existing RAETP (Radioactive Active Effluent Treatment Plant) alarm panel showed signs of ageing and needed replacing with a new alarm panel with the same functionality and maximum size.

Maintaining Reliable Generator Cooling Through Precision Chemical Control

A new caustic dosing system at Heysham 2 maintains stator water pH, protecting generator components from corrosion and ensuring reliable operation.

Alternative Indication Centre (AIC) – Scada System Upgrade

EDF Energy – Hinkley Point B

AMS partnered with Servelec Controls (Now ITI) to deliver a new SCADA system that mimics the functionality of the existing system.

Extending the Operational Life of Safety-Critical Detection Systems 

Reverse-engineered PCBs extended the life of the WIDS and SIDS at Heysham 2 and Torness, restoring maintainability without mechanical modifications.

Future-Proofing Effluent Monitoring at Torness 

A hybrid monitoring solution at Torness accurately measures multi-phase sludge levels in AETP tanks, supporting a scalable fleet-wide deployment.
