In the frame work of generation IV international forum, safety design criteria and safety design guideline for the generation IV sodium-cooled fast reactors have been developing. JAEA, JAPC, MFBR have been investigating design study for JSFR to satisfy SDC. In addition to the safety measures, maintainability, reparability and manufacturability are taken into account in the JSFR design study. This paper describes the design of main components. Enlargement of the access route for the inspection devices and addition of the access routes were carried out for the reactor structure. The pump-integrated IHX was modified for the primary heat exchanger, which was installed for the decay heat removal in the IHX at the upper plenum, to be removable for improved repair and maintenance. For the steam generator, protective wall tube type design is under investigation as an option with less R&D risks.
