Abstract

The ITER Magnets are in the procurement and assembly phases. During these phases, critical components need to be tested and assembly procedures need to be developed and qualified on mockups. To this end, ITER Organization (IO) and the Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique (CEA) have built up a support structure with space, expertise and equipment: MIFI – Magnet Infrastructure Facilities for ITER. In this framework, IO and CEA perform Receiving Inspection and Tests (RIT) on components delivered to IO by the Domestic Agencies (DA). RIT is a critical stage in the life process of components. These tests are meant to ensure the good quality of components and occur between the Factory Acceptance Test (performed before delivery to IO) and the Site Acceptance Tests that are performed after installation in the tokamak pit. The paper explains the RIT sequence managed on the Poloidal Field #4 Cryostat Feedthrough (PF4 CFT), the first ITER Magnets component to be delivered by a Domestic Agency to ITER Organization, and details leak tests, metrology tests and High Voltage tests performed.
