Description

A new active ventilation system to support ongoing activities in MRF building within the Fusion
room is required [1].
The system will comprise of the following:
1. A new dry glove box extract to support the proposed 11 glove boxes to be located in
the Fusion Room. In addition, the existing red extract system in the facility will be
coupled with the new glovebox extract system. Such that, in the event of a fan failure
at either the red extract or glovebox extract, the other fan can deliver the duty of both
the red extract and glovebox extract systems.
2. Integrate the control philosophy of the existing red extract fan and the glovebox extract
to enable them to act as duty/ standby in the event of either of the fans failing.
UKAEA have completed an option assessment which identifies that considerable advantages
that can be gained by coupling the existing red extract system with the Glovebox extract
system which will add complementary resilience in terms of duty/ standby for both the red
extract and glove box systems. The glovebox extract shall be sited where the space for the
provisional standby red extract fan is located, the ventilation control panel and inverters will
be located within the space provision available for the standby red extract fan.
