The tritium facility at KMS Fusion, Inc. supports our Inertial Confinement Fusion research program. The main function of the facility is to fill glass or polymer shells to a maximum pressure of 100 atm. with tritium (T2) or deuterium-tritium (DT). The apparatus and procedures used in this process are described including provisions for tritium containment and monitoring. An estimate of equipment costs is given.
