(1)]service-inspection of PWR nuclear power plant, all heat transfer tube of steam generator is inspected by eddy current testing (ECT). The period of ECT is long because the tubes which should be inspected are lot (the amount of tubes is about 3,400 per a unit). Owing to a long inspecting time in a radiation area, the exposure dose is high in the whole work of in-service-inspection. We have been improving ECT devices for decreasing inspection time and exposure dose, and have developed Steam Generator Tube Sheet Walking Robot (MR-III).
