Abstract: A remote handling device includes a master arm and a slave arm adapted to reproduce the movements of the master arm. The slave arm is located within a confinement chamber. The master arm is located outside the confinement chamber. The master and slave arms are interconnected by a mechanism passing through a wall of the confinement chamber. The master arm is connected by a connection tube to the mechanism. The master arm and the connection tube are connected to coupling and uncoupling means adapted to permit their modular connection or disconnection.
