Abstract
An apparatus and a method for inspecting an outer jacket of a core containment in the region of a heat shield surrounding the core containment, include a plate mounted rotatably on a bottom of a storage basin. The core containment is deposited on the bottom. A mast is deposited on the bottom next to the core containment. A vertical carriage is disposed on the mast for movement in the longitudinal direction of the mast. An outrigger which is disposed on the vertical carriage can be introduced into a region between the outer jacket of the core containment and a heat shield and has a free end which carries an inspection device.
