 The Preliminary Design Review aimed to confirm the technical maturity of the design and prepare the manufacturing of a Torus Pre-production Cryopump. "We have to make absolutely sure that everything is going in the right direction," explains Robert Pearce, ITER Vacuum Pumping Section Leader and the organizer of the review. "It is very important, at this stage, to present the design status to a panel of distinguished independent experts that will see if there's a problem we haven't identified and come up with pertinent suggestions..."  This PDR for the ITER Cryopumps and Front End Cryodistribution System was one of the largest ever held at ITER. All together, the meeting was attended by more than 60 people from ITER, the European Domestic Agency F4E and European Associates either at HQ or through video conference. This PDR for the ITER Cryopumps and Front End Cryodistribution System was one of the largest ever held at ITER. The next big step is scheduled for the end of the year, with the call for tender for a full size pre-production torus cryopump. << return to Newsline #124 |
