Abstract :
We describe the design of an experimental rig, which was developed to allow reactor testing at relevant conditions, i.e. vacuum and ~400°C temperature, of prototype resistive bolometers, which will be used in ITER to acquire information on the radiated power distribution from the main plasma and in the diverter region. The main feature of the design is that the rig has no active temperature control.
