PETAL+ Diagnostics Insertion System (SID)

Context & Issues
Turnkey implementation of the SID (Diagnostics Insertion System) and BTDP (plasma diagnostics transfer box) of the Megajoule Laser Facility’s PETAL+ experiment system. Mechanical construction on the basis of the definition produced by the CEA, development of the associated control and monitoring facilities, works acceptance of the equipment and erection on site.
Construction of a prototype and of two additional series.
Project characteristics
- Installation on the CEA CESTA LMJ site
