The Interim Examination and Maintenance (IEM) Cell is a vertical hot cell located within the containment dome of the Fast Flux Test Facility (FFTF). The cell has two basic functions: (1) to perform disassembly/reassembly and nondestructive testing on radioactive, sodium-wetted reactor components, and (2) to provide a shielded work volume where radioactive, sodium-wetted reactor and refueling equipment can be repaired and maintained. One of the recent FFTF experiments processed through the IEM Cell was the Material Open Test Assembly (MOTA). This paper describes the disassembly and reassembly of the MOTA test assembly.
