LEAKAGE DETECTOR FOR THE BARRAGE OF A NUCLEAR POOL

摘要

A device for detecting sealing defects and for measuring the leakage rate of gaskets placed in parallel relationship on the lateral surface of a gate separating the compartments of a storage pool for nuclear fuel elements has a small volume of free space between the gaskets. This volume is connected by means of a tube with two leakage level detectors placed at different levels which emit a signal when a predetermined water level is attained in the tight volume.
