Abstract :
ITER in-vessel components must be remotely maintained due to neutron activation. Components that require maintenance include the blanket shield modules, divertor cassettes and ancillary systems mounted in the vacuum vessel (VV) ports. Maintenance is predominantly accomplished by component removal and transfer to the hot cell facility for repair or waste processing. Component transfer between the VV and the hot cell is performed in sealed casks that dock to the VV ports. An overview of the in-vessel remote maintenance requirements, techniques and equipment is presented.
