ASM Epsilon E3200 is a high-powered Fast Reactor, designed specifically for generation of electricity. The core of the reactor measures about 35 meters tall and 12 meters wide, and consists of a stainless steel tank with a conical reflector that surrounds the tank. The reactor is fuelled by highly enriched uranium, and cooled and moderated by heavy water. The control of the reactor is achieved with two rods, used for power control and reactivity count. The core houses a pressure vessel, which contains the nuclear fuel and the water coolant/moderator. The fuel is uranium, enriched to between 93% and 97%, and is arranged in an array of hexagonal tubes that allow for the adjustment of the reactivity of the core. The inside of the pressure vessel is lined with graphite so that the neutrons produced in the fission reaction are moderated so that the short wavelength neutrons are slowed down, contributing to more efficient utilization of the fuel. Epsilon E3200 also features a safety equipment designed to ensure safety in the case of an emergency. The system consists of three systems - the Primary, Secondary and Auxiliary Shutdown Systems. The primary shutdown unit is automated and employs neutron detectors and reactivity control rods, while the secondary machine provides back up regulation in the event the primary tool fails. The auxiliary asset is used in the event of an emergency to shut down the reactor and evacuate the area. This model involves manual input from the operators, who enter the shut down codes to activate the equipment. In addition to the safety systems, the reactor contains components to protect it, both actively and passively. Components such as pressure relief valves, rupture discs and high pressure coolant injection systems are employed in order to protect the integrity of the reactor from high pressure and temperature. The containment system also protects the core and other components of the reactor from radioactive matter, and is capable of withstanding high pressure loads. All in all, ASM Epsilon E3200 is a safe and efficient fast reactor, designed to supply power to remote locations or areas with limited power supply. It is a reliable unit that not only has a strong safety machine in place, but also has components that ensure the protection of the reactor from any possible damage.
