Reactor Coolant Pump for Generation III+ Plants
Innovative integrated design enhances safety and operation

Curtiss-Wright is currently developing the next generation reactor coolant pump for Generation III+ nuclear plants that will be built throughout the world.  The RCP will employ canned motor technology and passive safety features to support failsafe plant operation.

• No shaft seals
• High inertia
• High reliability
• Low maintenance
• Hermetically sealed
• More tolerant of off-design conditions
• Bearings lubricated by primary coolant
• Proven pump design has performed years of service in other applications
