PV3 Carbon Steel Air Receiver
February 26, 2026
Sizewell B Air Receivers for an EDF power station. A project that required close attention to detail and a fast turnaround to meet the end users schedule. The vessels were to be installed into an existing system so each had individual critical nozzle locations. Designed and manufactured in our Tamworth Workshop by our expert team we ensured that the installation was a success and that the schedule was met. the Air Receivers were certified to PD5500 cat. 2 and UKCA marked along with project and end-user specifications. Requiring NDT: 10% Radiography and 100% DPI. The vessels were finished with an external bead blasted uniform finish.
At CPE along with Sizewell B Air Receivers we produce a wide range of high-specification and safety-critical products for Nuclear and many other industries, see our product pages for more information.
