Finally today, long periscope developed for Kalpakkam reactor was dedicated to India.
A 10-meter long periscope, indigenously developed for a nuclear reactor at the Indira Gandhi Centre for Atomic Research (IGCAR) in Kalpakkam and claimed to be the longest in the world.
The cost was Rs. 3.9-crore for periscope, manufactured by city-based Visual Education Aids (P) Ltd (VEA) in collaboration with IGCAR and others, it was handed over to Bharatiya Nabhikiya Vidyut Nigam (Bhavini), Kalpakkam, by IGCAR Director S.C. Chetal.
Mr. Chetal mentioned that periscope is the longest in the world and would be used in the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor to view objects inside the reactor during maintenance
VEA Director J. Balu mentioned that the periscope will be taken soon to Kalpakkam and it can be remotely operated and also has motorised facilities for scanning the area of interest and image zooming and rotation.
Mr. Balu mentioned that the Applied Spectroscopy Division, Division of Remote Handling and Robotics and Centre for Design and Manufacture of Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) Mumbai also gave hands to this two-year long project.
This technology develops the fame of our country India because it is a longest periscope in the world and it encourages the youngsters for the future, how to go about with the science and technology?. It also helps our nation by supplying the power without often power-cuts. Lets hope there will not be a often power-cuts in the future............
