Vibration Sensors for Machine Health Monitoring in Nuclear Power Plants
In nuclear power facilities, early detection of equipment abnormalities is essential for safe, reliable, and cost-effective operation.
Our Sensors provides radiation-resistant vibration sensors and monitoring solutions that help maintenance and reliability engineers identify mechanical issues early, prevent unexpected failures, and optimise maintenance schedules for critical nuclear machinery.
Why Vibration Monitoring is Critical in Nuclear Plants
Vibration analysis is a core component of predictive maintenance in nuclear facilities. It enables engineers to maintain continuous operation while reducing operational risk, improving safety, and lowering maintenance costs.
KDP vibration monitoring solutions are specifically engineered to meet the extreme environmental and regulatory requirements of nuclear power plants.

Engineered for Extreme Environments
Nuclear-grade vibration sensors are designed for long-term reliability in harsh nuclear environments, with features including:
Radiation-resistant design: Withstands up to 1×10⁷ RADs without performance degradation
IP68-rated construction for wet or contaminated environments
Miswiring protection and ESD protection for enhanced survivability
CE-compliant design
Hermetic sealing tested for leak-free operation
These sensors provide confidence that your monitoring program will remain accurate, stable, and durable over the lifespan of the facility.
