[en] For ITER it is planned to high heat flux test at least 10% of the elements as final acceptance test of a batch. A supply of components to ITER, which are rejected by such a final acceptance test, would generate a tremendous financial burden for the supplier in question and would also lead to delays of the whole project. It is therefore important for a potential supplier to ITER to reduce such a risk as much as possible by having access to a high heat flux test device. For that purpose PLANSEE has decided to implement a high heat flux test facility at its own premises. The device in question supplied with plasma guns operating at 50 kW and 70 kW, respectively, has already been installed at PLANSEE. Considering the losses due to e.g.: heating or radiation of the plasma beam, it is possible to obtain heat fluxes well beyond 20 MW/m², as the beam can be focused to a rather narrow spot with a diameter of e.g.: 40 mm. The plasma guns can be operated at maximum power for several hours without shut down. Finally, the device contains a robot for the manipulation of the components, a calorimeter, pyrometers and an IR camera to monitor the surface temperatures. Within this paper the features of the device and the concept for high heat flux testing will be described aiming at development, qualification and industrial scale production of plasma facing components.
