At power unit No. 1 of Kursk NPP-2, the imported fire-resistant fluid in the control system of the first Russian high-capacity low-speed turbine was replaced with a domestic analogue. The supply of about 15 tons of specialized compound was carried out by Enkhim company, part of the National Energy Company (NEK) group.

The new fluid is designed to operate in high-temperature conditions and ensures safe operation of the turbine generator. After delivery to the site, the product passed incoming inspection and was filled into the turbine control system.

The main advantage of the domestic compound is its high fire resistance. The fluid maintains the necessary operational characteristics even when exposed to extreme temperatures and reduces the risk of ignition in areas of contact with heated equipment elements.

The transition to a Russian product allowed ensuring the technological independence of one of the key facilities of nuclear energy. Previously, an imported fluid was used in the control system, but the customer – Rosenergoatom concern – decided to replace it with a domestic development.

Kursk NPP-2 is one of the largest energy projects in Russia. The station is to become an important element of the energy system of the Central Federal District, where the uninterrupted operation of equipment is of strategic importance for the region's industry.
