Description

JET has historically used ISO containers for the transfer of RH equipment and activated components / assemblies between the JET vessel and other facilities. These containers have been modified with specific features to provide additional radiation shielding, ventilation, and have locating features to enable accurate, repeatable positioning on stillages. The containers are capable of being lifted by overhead cranes and are attached to facilities through a double lidded door docking system that allows a transfer of material between areas under controlled and contained conditions.

This requirement is for the supply of engineering and manufacturing services which have been separated into parts A) and B):

A) To prepare the requirements, engineering analysis, calculations, and design of enhancements to ISO containers so they can be used for an increased scope of activities during JET decommissioning for the supply of 1 off component.

B) To prepare the requirements, engineering analysis, calculations, and design of the boom addition transport stillage for the supply of 1 off component.
