Filters

The purpose of this contract is design, manufacture, delivery and installation support of gas filters for the drying system (DYS), ESPN ("Equipement Sous Pression Nucléaire" = Nuclear Pressure Equipment) level 3 classified. The Drying System (DYS) provides removal of water from TCWS (Tokamak Cooling Water System) that cannot be gravity drained and gas baking of divertor cassettes. The DYS should be: (a) capable to dry the in-vessel components of the client systems in preparation for periodic leak testing, maintenance or component replacement; (b) able to blow-out (where required) and dry IBED PHTS (Integrated Blanket Edge localized mode Divertor) and VV PHTS (Vacuum Vessel Primary Heat Transfer System) loops to meet operational requirements; (c) able to provide hot nitrogen for gas baking of the divertor cassettes; (d) capable to provide the primary confinement for small amounts of ACP and tritium during drying operations. The drying system filters are gas filters. Their goal is to remove particles from air in order to protect the DY compressor.
