Abstract

L'invention est du domaine de l'étalonnage. Elle vise plus précisément un ensemble d'étalonnage pour utilisation en association avec les transducteurs d'un appareil de contrôle d'une cuve de réacteur nucléaire, caractérisé par le fait qu'il comporte un corps généralement sphérique, possédant une surface de réflexion d'un faisceau ultra-sonique de l'un des transducteurs, ce corps généralement sphérique étant disposé en position fixe, le transducteur étant déplacé par rapport à ce corps généralement sphérique jusqu'à ce que le faisceau qui est réfléchi par ce corps donne un signal de retour d'amplitude maximale, indiquant que le transducteur est en alignement avec ce corps généralement sphérique. Application aux centrales nucléaires.The invention is in the field of calibration. It relates more precisely to a calibration assembly for use in association with the transducers of an apparatus for monitoring a nuclear reactor vessel, characterized in that it comprises a generally spherical body, having a reflection surface of an ultra-sonic beam from one of the transducers, this generally spherical body being arranged in a fixed position, the transducer being moved relative to this generally spherical body until the beam which is reflected by this body gives a signal of maximum amplitude feedback, indicating that the transducer is in alignment with this generally spherical body. Application to nuclear power plants.
