Control rods specially designed or prepared for the control of the fission process in a ‘nuclear reactor’, support or suspension structures therefor, rod drive mechanisms and rod guide tubes;

Although the MAPLE reactors were started up half a dozen years ago, serious defects in construction and design affecting the control rods, the shut-off rods, and the control of the power level have prevented them from performing their intended function the production of isotopes.

the main control units such as the steering wheel or steering lever, the engine controls, the radio controls, and the controls for the acoustic signals and the warning and manoeuvring signals required under national or international navigational authority regulations, as appropriate, shall be arranged in such a way that the distance between the controls on the starboard side and those on the port side is not more than 3 m. The helmsman shall be able to operate the engines without letting go of the controls for the steering system and while still being able to operate the other controls such as the radio system, the controls for the acous ...[+++]tic signals and the warning and manoeuvring signals required under national or international navigational authority regulations, as appropriate;

d. Control rods specially designed or prepared for the control of the fission process in a "nuclear reactor", support or suspension structures therefor, rod drive mechanisms and rod guide tubes;

For example, neutron absorbing control rods can be moved into and out of the core to control the reaction and they form some of the safety mechanisms.

The European Commission has cleared the proposed acquisition of Unison Industries, a leading US supplier of aircraft engine accessories and controls, by GE Engine Services Inc (GEES), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the General Electric Company.
