Abstract

The Brazilian Multipurpose Reactor (RMB) will be an open pool type multipurpose nuclear reactor with a nominal power of 30 MW. RMB is being designed to meet Brazil’s current and future needs for neutron source to be used in radioisotope production, general research, and materials testing. This report shows a summary description of RMB Instrumentation and Control (I&C) systems. The I&C system follows the IAEA safety classification.
