Description

During the D-T phase of JET it is planned to undertake maintenance using Remote Handling (RH). equipment. The equipment necessary to undertake this has been progressively procured and the first full scale RH task mock-up trial was undertaken. This paper describes the results and experience gathered during this activity. Replacement of a neutral beam ion source was chosen for mock-up for a number of reasons. The experiences from undertaking this work resulted in a number of modifications to the remote handling equipment, the neutral beam ion source design and the operational procedure and these are discussed
