The BEACON Core Monitoring System can be used to predict core behavior and to analyze reactor core operations data and measured information. BEACON Core Monitoring System is designed to provide core operational guidance based on the current core conditions.
BEACON Core Monitoring System is installed on a cost-effective engineering workstation computer with an interface to the plant computer and can be networked to provide consistent information to several sites.
