In April 26th (local time), the 5 RCD reactors CFHI manufactured for Arak Refinery Expansion and Upgrading Project of NIOEC have been successfully hydrotested at one time. All welds on the 5 reactors have passed NDTs. The schedule is fulfilled ahead of the time and it has been praised highly by the NIOEC, SEI, Chinese Embassy in Iran and specialists from other countries. It is the first time that CFHI has ever made a batch production of these large-scale reactors. CFHI has obtained great honor from our customer and for the Chinese manufacturing industry. Its success will make a great contribution to CFHI for winning more domestic and oversea market.
Although the transportation of the shell rings was much delayed, the fabrication of two and a half vessels has been done smoothly in 52 days from March 5th to April 26th. Each of the welds have been heat treated and NDT inspected twice. The 3rd, the 4th and the 5th vessels were successfully hydrotested at one time in March 26th, April 16th and April 26th, respectively. Up till now, the Project Office has completely finished all the site jobs of the 5 reactors.
