Discussed in this report is the possibility of modular application of moving-belt plasma-facing components for a steady-state magnetic fusion device. Individual modules will provide specific functions such as particle control and heat removal. Modular-by-modular operational windows concerning belt length, moving speed, plasma exposure length and surface temperature have been analyzed in detail.
