[...] un système interne, mesurant le flux neutronique à l'intérieur du cœur, et un système externe placé à l'extérieur de la cuve coexistent. La terminologie habituellement retenue pour nommer les systèmes à partir de trigrammes utilise l'appellation RIC(réacteur instrumentation coeur) pour le premier et RPN(réacteur protection nucléaire) pour le second. Le système RIC mesure la distribution relative en 3D de la puissance à l'intérieur du cœur du réacteur avec une très bonne précision liée à un procédé de mesure interne au réacteur. C'est pourquoi on l'appellera par la suite système de référence. La constante de temps associée n’ est pas une exigence forte; elle dépendra de l'architecture du système et de la technologie utilisée. 3, record 2, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20RIC

Magnetostrictive Level Sensors consist of a NEMA 6/IP68 tube which houses the sensor electronics, a magnetostrictive wire and a float with an embedded magnet. The position of the magnet in the float is precisely determined by the interaction with signal pulses in the wire. Float position is then converted to a 4-20 mA output in the current out version, or processed into a level measurement via the serial output in the S3LT version. 2, record 6, English, - magnetostrictive%20sensor
