Abstract

Modular ultrafiltration device for the cooling liquid of a nuclear reactor, comprising a radiation absorbing containment (1), an ultrafilter (15) arranged in the containment (1), a heat exchanger (32) placed in the containment (1), and connection pieces intended for the various parts of the ultrafilter (15) and heat exchanger (32) and passing through the wall of the containment (1) in a leak-proof manner. A heat-insulating material (41) fills the inner volume of the containment (1). The modular device can easily be connected to an auxiliary circuit of the nuclear reactor. The ultrafiltration wall can be replaced without any difficulty.
