Development of a remotely operated concrete decontamination vehicle. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5095008
This document describes the design, fabrication, testing and demonstration of a remotely operated (tethered) concrete scabbling vehicle. This vehicle was designed to remotely decontaminate concrete floor surfaces in nuclear facilities, and thereby increase productivity and reduce operator radiation exposure. The completed unit consists of a tethered chassis, a portable remote control console, a seven cylinder scabbler head, and a vacuum system to collect and store the scabbled debris. The remote scabbler can decontaminate up to 400 ft/sup 2//h at a surface removal depth of 1/16 in.
