CCTV for nuclear projects

When operators work through cameras, the view is part of how they do the job. Centurion’s nuclear experience includes CCTV design and build for remote robotic work at Sellafield. Talk to us about what your operators need to see and the system you’re planning.

Cameras for the work operators need to see

A view of a working area has a different purpose from a camera watching an entrance. For a new project, start with the task on screen and the detail the operator needs.

CCTV

Our Sellafield project involved designing and building CCTV so operators could oversee remotely controlled equipment used in nuclear waste retrieval. If your project needs a similar viewing function, we can discuss the camera system with your engineering team.

  • The view from the operator’s position

    Explain the task being watched, the detail that matters and where the operator will view the pictures.

  • The environment around the camera

    Include the specified operating conditions and equipment requirements when you outline the project.

  • How the system fits together

    Tell us which cameras, displays or recording equipment are already specified and what needs to connect to them.

Start with the CCTV part of your project

You may be developing the viewing system or looking for a supply partner for a defined package. Explain where CCTV fits into the wider work, so we can discuss the contribution you need from Centurion.

  • The task operators need to watch
  • New equipment or changes to an existing system
  • Your camera and display specification, if available
  • The project stage and who leads the engineering work

Working through a main contractor

Tell us who is responsible for the CCTV package and how suppliers are appointed. That helps us direct the conversation to the right people.

Questions about a nuclear CCTV enquiry

Was the Sellafield CCTV used for site security?

The published project concerns cameras used by operators to oversee remote-controlled robotic equipment during waste retrieval. Centurion was a supply partner for the CCTV design and build. Read the Sellafield case study for the project account.

Can we discuss changes to an existing camera system?

Yes. Tell us what the system does, which equipment is installed and what you want to change. We’ll need to review the technical requirements before confirming whether we can help. For equipment in a specialist environment, include the relevant specification in that discussion.
