  • Abstract
    The design of the systems for delivering active and non-active gas to the JET torus during plasma pulses is outlined. Emphasis is given to the novel engineering aspects, which include radiation resistant pressure gauges, a matrix gas distribution system and an automated system for verifying, the purity of gas species. The performance of the system is reviewed and future enhancement for tritium introduction are proposed
