12. ITER provides Unique Technical Challenges for Diagnostics Measurement requirements demand performance capability for present-day machines + alpha-particle measurement, + operation in radiation environment, presence of blankets, + reliability, calibration maintenance, + control data for machine protection. Significant engineering design issues. 2m high x 1.8m wide x 3.5m long Weight 66 tonne Side and bottom 130mm thick Front & port flange 200mm Equatorial port-plug concept Port-plug with penetrations for Thomson scattering, interferometry, etc. Designs by C. Walker (JCT)

13. Construction Schedule 7 year construction 1 year integrated commissioning ITER Legal Entity established about 2 years before award of construction license Long lead item calls for tender sent out and procurement started before license awarded Success-oriented schedule: First plasma in 2013
