From Stäubli Corporation

STC has worked with MANUFACTURER FS on this project for almost 4 years beginning in 2005. The scope of this particular project is the remote electrical connection for electrical pump motors in the Pre-Treatment facility at the Hanford Vitrification Facility being constructed in Richland, Washington, USA. In addition to the remote handled electrical connections there are also remote handled fluid connections for servicing the pump bearings with grease. This will all take place in an area of relatively high radioactivity necessitating the requirement for remote handling of the connections.
