Pyrocontrole becomes a partner of the RJH* International Research Reactor Project

Built at the CEA (French Nuclear Authority) centre at Cadarache in the south of France, the Jules Horowitz Reactor, mainly dedicated to research for the electronuclear industry and nuclear medicine, will be equipped with Pyrocontrole temperature sensors. Chosen for their reliability and rugged design, the various pools in the RJH* will be equipped with around forty temperature sensors.

 Long-standing, widely-acknowledged know-how

Right from the start of nuclear development in France in the 1970s,  Pyrocontrole succeeded in demonstrating and developing temperature sensors with performance constantly boosted by the latest technological advances for the major players in the nuclear industry.
Over the ensuing years, as a partner for both decision-makers and end-users, Pyrocontrole has designed and developed a specific offering of temperature sensors qualified as K1, K2, K3 and NC according to RCC-E**.
