iQanto supports companies in the nuclear sector with their most demanding projects, providing technical expertise, meticulous attention to detail, and innovative solutions to ensure safety, performance, and compliance in an industry where excellence is an absolute must.
For over 40 years, the Snef Group and its subsidiaries have supported the French and international nuclear industry in its most strategic projects. iQanto operates across the entire value chain: from design engineering to maintenance, including automation, instrumentation, and the monitoring of critical systems.
Nuclear safety is a top priority for the industry, with the implementation of advanced supervision systems, secure data transfer to crisis centers, and secure real-time transmission of large volumes of process and environmental information. Physical security also requires sophisticated access control and intrusion detection systems.
Cybersecurity is a major challenge for nuclear facilities. Our projects systematically include a high level of cyber security for the industrial networks deployed, and the management of complex secure IT networks. This applies equally to IT infrastructures and cyber risk management for supervision networks. Intrusion protection and data security are top priorities in all nuclear projects.
Environmental monitoring is a crucial regulatory and social issue. Nuclear power plants are required to monitor the various liquid and gaseous discharges around the plant, up to a distance of 10 km, as well as real-time monitoring of river heating associated with the cooling of nuclear power plants. This requires environmental monitoring systems with a dozen or so remote collection points and real-time retransmission of process and environmental information.
Maximum availability of nuclear facilities is essential for energy production. This requires the implementation of dedicated process monitoring systems using process data and chemical analysis data to anticipate any drift in chemical parameters throughout the plant. Predictive maintenance solutions make it possible to keep facilities under control, and to ensure the longevity of protection-critical equipment, sometimes with more than 800 chemical parameters in use.
