Abstract
A device for inspection of a reactor vessel (1), for example a vessel for a pressurized-water reactor and a method for inspection by means of the device. The device comprises a manipulator (12) for inspection equipment (19), said manipulator being adapted to be anchored, by means of adhesion devices (24a, 24b, 24c, 24d) to the vessel wall during the inspection. The manipulator comprises a curved track (14) and a horizontal trolley (15) movable along the track for transfer of the inspection equipment, the extent of the track in the tangential direction of the vessel corresponding to an arc of the vessel's circumference. A rigid rod is attached to the device and to a lifting device. The manipulator is lowered into the vessel and moved towards the vessel wall.
