Tests on the prototype of the Optical Hinge for the Wide Angle Viewing System to ITER gamma radiation conditions

The Wide Angle Viewing System (WAVS) for ITER is a major diagnostic for machine protection, plasma control and physics analysis. The diagnostic will measure the surface temperature of the plasma facing components by infrared thermography being one of its main roles to protect them from damage. It wi...

The diagnostic will measure the surface temperature of the plasma facing components by infrared thermography being one of its main roles to protect them from damage. It will also image the plasma emission in the visible range. The full system is composed of 15 lines of sights located in four equatorial ports (3, 9, 12 and 17).As part of the ex-vessel optics, the first element of the optical chain is the Optical Hinge (OH). It is constituted by two folding mirrors which face the port plug exit optical beam. The mission of this component is to compensate the differential motion between the vacuum vessel and the building, during normal operation and baking. This function will be performed by means of a piezo actuator coupled to the OH upper mirror (and a set of reference switches) to drive the vertical displacement of the mirror in order to get the desired alignment position of the optical beam. The piezo actuator has been identified as the main critical item of the OH what has motivated the fabrication of an OH prototype (for one line of sight) aimed at performing a set of tests to validate the piezo actuator under operation conditions. The tests have consisted in the characterization of the piezo actuator behavior with the nominal load after being irradiated to 272.40 kGy of total accumulated gamma dose, which is the dose expected in ITER.
