Abstract
The WEST tokamak consists of a major upgrade of the superconducting medium size tokamak Tore Supra aiming at testing ITER divertor components. Such modification has required rebuilding a full set of magnetic diagnostics. The project was started in 2013 and completed in 2016. The diagnostic consists of a set of 469 sensors (421 pick-up coils, 36 flux loops, and 12 Rogowski coils) installed in the WEST vacuum vessel. New analog integrators have been developed in order to obtain the magnetic field and flux from the raw signal of the sensors. During the startup phase of WEST, plasma currents of the order of a few kilo amperes were measured despite much larger current of the order of hundreds of kilo amperes flowing in nearby conducting structures. The diagnostic is now fully operational and exhibits a noise level of about 0.5 mT on the magnetic field, and 2.0 mWb on flux loops allowing identifying the plasma boundary with an accuracy of a few millimeters on a 2 ms time cycle.
