The Hot Cell Verification Facility (HCVF) is operated by the Westinghouse Hanford Co. in the 300 Area of Hanford. The HCVF provides a prototype hot cell mock-up for use in checking equipment and operations for functional and remote operation. The facility can also be used for hands-on training of operating personnel prior to actual hot operation of the equipment. A broad spectrum of testing and development functions is performed in HCVF, including: equipment operability testing, maintainability and compatibility testing, system integration, and remote maintenance capability testing. An updated description of the HCVF is presented in this paper.
