The neutron flux monitoring system consists of two startup channels, two control channels and four safety channels. Typically, the safety channels are provided to monitor the ex-core neutron flux over the range of source power to full power of the nuclear reactor. Two startup channels provide source level range neutron flux information to a reactor operator. Two control channels provide neutron flux information, in the power operating range, to the reactor regulating system during automatic turbine load-following operations.
