Main Coolant Piping Welding of Lufeng Nuclear Power Unit 6 Successfully Completed

On September 28, the main coolant piping welding of the nuclear island of Lufeng Nuclear Power Unit 6 was successfully completed. All non-destructive testing of the main coolant piping was finished, with the first-pass qualification rate of radiographic testing (RT)/ultrasonic testing (UT) reaching 100%, laying a solid foundation for subsequent key milestones such as nuclear loop flushing and cold functional testing.

Facing the high standards of main coolant piping welding, the project department strictly implemented nuclear safety supervision and control requirements, carried out precondition verification across all dimensions of personnel, machines, materials, methods, and environment, established a main coolant piping welding control zone, strictly controlled the working environment including temperature, humidity, and cleanliness, and ensured stable and controllable welding conditions. The project team fully drew on the main coolant piping welding experience of Unit 5, formulated a special plan and implemented full-process management, and through digital monitoring means throughout the entire welding process, tracked key parameters such as welding deformation and temperature in real time, refined the process disclosure, in-process inspection, and quality acceptance procedures for each weld joint, and applied the work style of "strict, cautious, meticulous, and pragmatic" to every welding operation and every weld seam, ensuring the successful completion of the main coolant piping welding of Unit 6.

The Lufeng Nuclear Power Project Department will continue to uphold the principle of "safety first, quality first," break new ground through reform and open the way through solid work, anchor on the key milestone of cold functional testing of Unit 6, go all out to advance project construction, and support the company's high-quality development.
