Abstract
In order to obtain information for control of JT-60SA plasma and physics research on the plasma, many types of magnetic sensors are developed. We have designed a new architecture of magnetic sensors and connection methods for JT-60SA taking installation and maintenance into account. The former include a newly designed Mirnov coil, a Rogowski coil and a diamagnetic loop. They enable us to make simple and robust sensors. The latter include a newly developed connector between a sensor and a mineral insulation cable, and a connection box. An unsealed connection box enables easy installation in a vacuum vessel; however, it should have a withstand voltage greater than 1 kV at intermediate gas pressures. We successfully achieved a high withstand voltage for the unsealed connection box in the gas pressure region around the Paschen minimum voltage. After R&D of JT-60SA magnetic sensors, almost all manufacturing steps are complete. This paper reports the manufacturing and tests of the magnetic sensors for JT-60SA.
