To condition the wall of the TJ-II vacuum vessel, a number of techniques is used, such as a baking system. [1]

Limiters
TJ-II is fitted with two mobile limiters. Nevertheless, the main interaction between the plasma and the wall occurs at the central "groove". [2]
Wall conditioning
Careful control of wall conditions is essential for successful operation. [3]
The walls can be coated by various materials, using a set of 4 evaporation ovens: two fixed and two mounted on retractable manipulators. In the course of time, TJ-II has been operated with the following types of wall:
TJ-II was the first stellarator to be operated with Lithium-coated walls. The lithium coating has led to much improved density control.
