Design of the remote handling system for a fuel defect test loop
Description
To extend the duration of fuel defect tests in the X-2 loop at Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories, Canada, required removing the equivalent of 1000 Ci 60Co from the coolant. Cartridge filters permit remote filter handling and disposal by using a simple transfer flask. A breech block closure permits remote disconnection and removal of the fuel string by using simple tools and existing fueling equipment
