A device for filtering water to at least one emergency cooling system in a nuclear power plant of the type comprising a reactor arranged in a containment which substantially consists of an upright, suitably cylindrical container whose bottom part forms a pool for collecting water formed by condensat

A device for filtering water to at least one emergency cooling system in a nuclear power plant of the type comprising a reactor arranged in a containment which substantially consists of an upright, suitably cylindrical container whose bottom part forms a pool for collecting water formed by condensation of steam present in the containment, the condensation pool including a number of back-flushable containers filter water which is taken from the pool and, if required, is supplied to nozzles in the emergency cooling system in order to cool the reactor core in the event of an inadmissible temperature rise therein, each strainer having a shape of a housing with at least one, suitably cylindrical, apertured strainer wall through which the water can flow from the outside and into the housing, and being connected, by a first conduit passing through the container wall, to a suction pump disposed outside the container wall, as well as connected to a secondary conduit for supplying wash water to the interior of the housing in order, if required, to flush the strainer wall by flowing the wash water through it from the inside and out, thereby removing filtrate deposited on the outside of the strainer wall, characterized in that a number of secondary strainers each consisting of an elongate, apertured tube having a diameter or maximum cross-sectional dimension from about 200 mm to about 400 mm and a length dimension at least five times greater than the diameter dimension, are connected either directly or indirectly by a third conduit to the first conduit connected to the suction pump.

A device for filtering water to at least one emergency cooling system in a nuclear power plant of the type comprising a reactor arranged in a containment which substantially consists of an upright, suitably cylindrical container whose bottom part forms a pool for collecting water formed by condensation of steam present in the containment, the condensation pool including a number of back-flushable strainers (3) serving to filter water which is taken from the pool and, if required, is supplied to nozzles in the emergency cooling system in order to cool the reactor core in the event of an inadmissible temperature rise therein, each strainer having the shape of a housing with at least one, suitably cylindrical, apertured strainer wall (10) through which the water can flow from the outside and into the housing, and being connected, by a first conduit (4) passing through the container wall (1), to a suction pump disposed outside the container wall, as well as connected to a second conduit (7) for supplying wash water to the interior of the housing in order, if required, to flush the strainer wall (10) by flowing the wash water through it from the inside and out, thereby removing filtrate deposited on the outside of the strainer wall, characterised in that a number of secondary strainers (24), each consisting of an elongate, apertured tube which is substantially vertically mounted and has a diameter or maximum cross-sectional dimension from about 200 mm to about 400 mm and a length dimension at least five times greater than the diameter dimension, are connected either directly or indirectly by a third conduit (23) to the first conduit (4) connected to the suction pump.
