Abstract
The designs of motion input nodes for manipulators installed in the hot boxes of radiochemical industries and ensuring the sealing of the chamber shell are considered. The basic calculation formulas for determining the design parameters of such nodes are given.

Key words
Radiation safety, manipulators of radiochemical production, hot chamber, magnetic coupling, wettable clearance.
