Description
The Interim Examination and Maintenance (IEM) Cell is a vertical, argon inerted hot cell located within the containment building of the Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF). The IEM Cell has two basic functions: (1) to perform disassembly and non-destructive testing on radioactive, sodium-wetted reactor components, and (2) to provide a shielded work volume where radioactive, sodium-wetted reactor and refueling equipment can be repaired and maintained. Another important aspect of the cell is the ability to remotely remove, transfer and reinstall in-cell equipment for maintenance. This paper describes one technique used to enhance in-cell visibility during these remote operations
