The conceptual design of JT-60SA cryostat is summarized. JT-60SA is designed to be a fully superconducting device and assumed deuterium operation, therefore a cryostat is introduced to secure three functions, which are thermal insulation for entire superconducting magnets, bio-shielding, and gravity support for the entire tokamak device. The cryostat is required to cover up the tokamak devices, which are 15 m of total height and 7 m of radius, and to support the total devices weight of 2550 tons. The cryostat consists of vessel body, gravity support and auxiliary facilities, such as 80 K thermal shield and exhaust system. Each of them is outlined with JT-60SA design conditions, and the operational condition of auxiliary system is clarified, especially, capacity of the exhaust system, which is related to the 80 K thermal shield design.
