ABSTRACT:
A reactor cavity dosimetry system and method for deploying the system which includes a top access support stand. Having a generally rectangular frame assembly formed by a pair of cross members and a pair of frame tubes, the support stand holds the dosimetry in place as part of a continuous loop. The continuous loop is first fed through a U-shaped tube situated beneath the support stand, and coupled together by a chain support plug which is adapted for insertion within a hole formed in an upper one of the cross members to fix the position of the dosimetry axially with respect to the core of a nuclear power plant within which the system is deployed. Each of the frame tubes has mounted thereon a pivotable arm assembly with a spring-loaded slide. After insertion within the cavity, the arm assemblies are pivoted out from the plane of the frame assembly, and disposed locked in place perpendicularly across the cavity. The spring-loading of the arm assemblies thus maintains the support stand in a substantially upright position.
