Abstract: The transfer principle and the composition of a rabbit radiation facility for neutron activation analysis in a reactor were introduced. The functions and security designs of the pneumatic transfer system and automatic control system in the irradiation device were studied. By the testing, the transfer speed of the facility is 7.0 m/s. The facility has advantages of steady transmission, simple operation, easy maintenance, etc. The facility satisfies the demand of the neutron activation analysis for short half-life nuclides.
