Used ASM EPSILON 3200 #293615950 for sale

ASM EPSILON 3200 reactor is a high-performance, medium-power thermal-neutron reactor designed for research, teaching and industrial applications. The reactor is fueled by highly enriched uranium (HEU) and is surrounded by a biological shielding of adequate thickness. The reactor core consists of a stainless steel tank with a cylindrical shape structure, filled with liquid sodium as coolant. It contains 36 uranium fuel plates with a uniform cylindrical shape, separated by aluminum spacer grids. The fuel plates and grids form a hexagonal lattice, which provides better control of the neutrons produced by the fission reactions. The reactor core also includes control rods and neutron detectors. The neutron flux in the reactor core is moderated by the presence of graphite blocks, which are located between the fuel plates and dividers. Moderating the neutron flux allows the reactor to operate with a maximum power of 3200 kW and a total neutron flux of 1.5 x 10^15 n/cm2-sec. The control rods are used to regulate the neutron output of the reactor, and their movements are carried out by a digital computerized control equipment. This system is designed to maintain a safe and stable reactor operation, as well as to avoid the overheating of the reactor core. The reactor is highly efficient and has a low emission rate. Its efficient design ensures a low emission rate of fission products, even though the uranium fuel is highly enriched. The reactor also produces relatively low levels of residual radiation, making it an ideal option for research, teaching and industrial applications. EPSILON 3200 reactor is part of a complex unit that includes cooling systems, emergency power supply, instrumentation for monitoring and control of the reactor parameters, and emergency measures for cases of criticality accidents. All the components of this machine are designed in accordance with international safety regulations.
