Abstract

A device for dimensional inspection of fuel elements (FE) of nuclear reactors VVER-1000 and VVER-440, which is based on the shadow measurement method, is presented. Technical software and metrological assurance of the device are described. Results of industrial tests and pilot exploitation are discussed. It is shown that such a device will properly maintain the technological process of FE production and, thus, improve safety of nuclear reactors and their service characteristics.
