Abstract

The integration system for installation of the European Helium Cooled Pebble Bed Test Blanket Module (EU HCPB TBM) in ITER being developed in the frame of the FZK Fusion programme uses three main interfaces to connect the TBM to its sub-systems. This paper describes how the occupation of the ITER hot cell for TBM installation into the port plug can be limited to the essential taking into account the update of the port plug design. The new design allows the dismantling of the radiation shield from the port plug frame. If a new shield is used for each new TBM the operations for connection of interface I between the TBM and shield can be done outside of the ITER hot cell as hands on operation.
