Narran ROD 1000 Bright+ Laser Cleaning Parameters

ROD 1000 Bright+ narran.cz (opens in new tab)

Narran deployed the ROD 1000 platform for reactor-shaft decontamination at Temelin nuclear plant; the Bright+ pulse set sharpens that pedigree. Doubling per-pulse energy to 100 mJ across 20-100 ns pulses, it reaches 1,700 kW peak, spalling oxides and carbonized layers off carbon steel without scarring the substrate. It matches the flagship ROD 2000 Bright+ per-pulse punch at half its 2000 W heat load.
