The HFR Petten is a key research reactor in Europe and in the course of the last decades several dedicated irradiation facilities have been developed and successfully operated. For example, as regards materials irradiation, in the frame of the European Network AMES (Ageing Materials and Evaluation Studies), the irradiation behaviour of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) steels, and thermal annealing efficiency and sensibility to re-irradiation damage are being investigated. Today the rig is a very promising tool for GIF research on materials. Similarly the QUATTRO rig has been tailored to GIF research. Dedicated irradiation rigs are also designed and operated by the IE to test advanced fuels; e.g. HTR fuel. An overview of the developed facilities is given in the following paper as well as examples of achieved results.
