Development of new three way valve using vacuum for liquid transfer

Yasuo, Kiyoshi ; Seto, Nobuhiko; Watahiki, Seiichi; Fukuari, Yoshihiro

The nitric acid solution including nuclear fuel material is transferred by the three way valve called VCV (VCV: vide-casse-vide in Fr.) using vacuum in the Tokai Reprocessing Plant. The reliability of initial three way valve was not obtained because failure occurred by use for one or two years. The cause of failure was damage of the plastic diaphragms in the moving parts. Then, the new three way valve with stainless-steel bellows was developed. there is no failure in moving parts, reliability improved significantly.
