– Is the responsible for safety– Ensures quality– May appoint directly qualified & skilled staff– Observes national laws in the fields of public and occupational

health & safety, nuclear safety, radiation protection, environmental protection,…

• Domestic AgenciesDomestic Agencies (suppliers) (suppliers)– Procure “in-kind” components & systems according to the

ITER-org technical and quality requirements– In same case perform design activity based on ITER-org

functional and performance requirements

What is the logic?What is the logic? Design and safety requirements Regulations (IAEA/ICPR EU France)

Essential Safety Requirements (Essential Safety Requirements (ESRsESRs)) Available calculation codes, codes and standards ITER, according to the procurement sharing and other inputs,

will specify what should be followed to fulfill essential safety requirements; this will usually be a unique set of C&S for one component.

Field Teams in contact with Domestic Agencies will insure that the final set used by end-supplier complies with ITER specification

ESRs for Pressure EquipmentESRs for Pressure Equipment• General obligations for manufacturerGeneral obligations for manufacturer

– e.g. to carry out hazard analysis incl. reasonably foreseeable misuse– to establish technical documentation file

• Design and calculationDesign and calculation– Design for adequate strength– Take into account sources of hazard, e.g., handling and operation, examination, draining and venting,

corrosion, chemical attack, wear, filling and discharge, exceeding allowable limits, safety accessories, external fire

• ManufacturingManufacturing– Manufacturing procedures, e.g., preparation of components, permanent joining, heat treatment,

traceability– Final assessment, e.g., final inspection incl. safety devices, proof test– Marking and labelling– Operating instructions

– French regulations and conformity to national laws and EU directives

– Nuclear or non-nuclear? (nuclear codes developed for fission reactors)

– Experimental nature of the device (or of some components)• Technical specific feature of the components Technical specific feature of the components

(not addressed by existing codes):(not addressed by existing codes):– Basic geometry of components (toroidal geometry, double

shell structure, several geometrical discontinuities, etc.)– Non-standard manufacturing, inspection and testing

processes– Special materials– Specific design loads (type of design loads, experimental
