0A001"Nuclear reactors" and specially designed or prepared equipment and components therefor, as follows:
- a..
"Nuclear reactors" capable of operation so as to maintain a controlled self-sustaining fission chain reaction;
- b..
Metal vessels, or major shop-fabricated parts therefor, specially designed or prepared to contain the core of a "nuclear reactor", including the reactor vessel head for a reactor pressure vessel;
- c..
Manipulative equipment specially designed or prepared for inserting or removing fuel in a "nuclear reactor";
- d..
Control rods specially designed or prepared for the control of the fission process in a "nuclear reactor", support or suspension structures therefor, rod drive mechanisms and rod guide tubes;
- e..
Pressure tubes specially designed or prepared to contain fuel elements and the primary coolant in a "nuclear reactor" at an operating pressure in excess of 5,1 MPa;
- f..
Zirconium metal and alloys in the form of tubes or assemblies of tubes in which the ratio of hafnium to zirconium is less than 1:500 parts by weight, specially designed or prepared for use in a "nuclear reactor";
- g..
Coolant pumps specially designed or prepared for circulating the primary coolant of "nuclear reactors";
- h..
'Nuclear reactor internals' specially designed or prepared for use in a "nuclear reactor", including support columns for the core, fuel channels, thermal shields, baffles, core grid plates, and diffuser plates;
Note: In 0A001.h. 'nuclear reactor internals' means any major structure within a reactor vessel which has one or more functions such as supporting the core, maintaining fuel alignment, directing primary coolant flow, providing radiation shields for the reactor vessel, and guiding in-core instrumentation.
- i..
Heat exchangers (steam generators) specially designed or prepared for use in the primary coolant circuit of a "nuclear reactor";
- j..
Neutron detection and measuring instruments specially designed or prepared for determining neutron flux levels within the core of a "nuclear reactor".
