Spent fuel from a nuclear power reactor emits high levels of both radiation and heat, and so is stored in water pools adjacent to the reactor to allow the initial heat and radiation levels to decrease. Typically, used fuel is stored onsite for at least five months before it can be transported, although it may be stored there long-term. Konecranes spent fuel nuclear cask transporters are designed to handle most nuclear dry storage casks safely and efficiently. We provide high level of safety with load drop protection, ergonomic controls to simplify operation, small turning radius with full rotational capability for efficient transportation and easy installation. Our transporters are available in both rubber tire and track-driven designs capable of handling up to 350 tons.
