In summary, the speaker is looking for specific chart paper for their control room and is considering contacting other sites for help. They mention that a switch to digital is in the works, but it will take some time. They also mention the age of their equipment, specifically a TRIGA MKI reactor.

I have been searching for some 11" Westronics chart paper CT014650-00 as the supply for the control room is apparently down to the last two rolls (will last until about February sometime). A switch to digital is in the works, but will take some time.

Any help/leads would be appreciated!

To contact other sites with similar equipment often helps (especially if they already switched to digital).

Seems to be harder than expected to find this paper, looks like we are going into small scale manufacturing. Should be interesting.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Related to Looking for chart paper for a TRIGA MKI

1. What is a TRIGA MKI?

A TRIGA MKI is a type of research nuclear reactor that was developed in the 1950s by General Atomics. It is a low-power, pool-type reactor that is primarily used for research and training purposes.

2. Why would someone need chart paper for a TRIGA MKI?

Chart paper is often used in nuclear research facilities to record and analyze data from experiments conducted in the reactor. This data can then be used to further understand nuclear reactions and improve reactor design.

3. Where can I find chart paper for a TRIGA MKI?

Chart paper for a TRIGA MKI can typically be found at scientific supply stores or online retailers that specialize in laboratory equipment. You may also be able to order it directly from the manufacturer of the reactor.

4. What type of chart paper is needed for a TRIGA MKI?

The specific type of chart paper needed for a TRIGA MKI may vary depending on the specific needs and preferences of the researcher. However, typically a high-quality, acid-free chart paper with a low background noise level is recommended for accurate and reliable data recording.

5. How is chart paper used in conjunction with a TRIGA MKI?

Chart paper is often used in conjunction with a TRIGA MKI by placing it in a chart recorder, which is a device that records data from the reactor onto the paper. The paper is then analyzed and interpreted by researchers to gain insights into the behavior of the reactor and the nuclear reactions taking place.
