Development of an Absolute Valve for ITERs Neutral Beam Injection — •Martin Greuter and Verena Saissrainer — VAT Vakuumventile AG, Seelistr. 1, 9469 Haag, Switzerland

VAT vacuum valves was awarded a contract by ITER to develop a DN1600 All Metal Pendulum Valve that provides isolation between the ITER vacuum vessel and the beam vessel for its Neutral Beam Injection. For the thermomechanical and seismic analysis, a collaboration contract between VAT and the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy (CCFE) was signed. The presentation will give an insight into how the transfer of knowledge between Research Institutes and Industry can be leveraged to develop the largest All Metal valve ever, complying with design regulations such as RCC-MR, dimensional restrictions while maintaining the common functionality of a field proven VAT All Metal Valve.
