Frank and I finished ITW and TM2 leak check. TM2 internal water-cooling lines are leak free. They passed 70 psi helium pressure test. We found some small leaks on ITW primary and secondary vacuum vessel. I list them here:

1. Exit module 2 service cap top plate to cap body O-ring at SW corner. Leak rate 2XE-8 atm.cc/sec. It is an old leak we found before. Solution: I sprayed high vacuum resin to leak area. It is improved to 3Xe-9atm/sec now. We can leave it there.

2. Exit module 1 module to tank flange o-ring at target module side and north side. Leak rate 3XE-8atm.cc/sec. Solution: replace the o-ring. It involves in disconnect exit module 1 and remove it out. We may or may not change it. Let's check the schedule and discuss it later. We need Travis help on module moving out.
   
3. Exit module 1 north side sqaure service panel o-ring. Leak rate 2XE-7 atm.cc/sec.  Solution: replace the o-ring. It is a straight forward job.  It will be done this shut down.
   
4. Exit module 1 north side round roughing valve panel o-ring. Leak rate 8XE-9 atm.cc/sec. Solution: Replace the o-ring. It involves in disconnecting and removing ITW RV4.  It could be done this shut down.
   
5. Big T tank o-ring seal underneath the flange at exit 1 module north side . Leak rate 3XE-8 atm.cc/sec. Solution: None. All modules and module base flange have to been moved out to replace this big o-ring.  It is a huge project to change this o-ring .  I checked this big o-ring seal every year. It is first time a small leak is found.  Maybe, we could try high vacuum resin spray first.
6. Dump module flange o-ring at the side by Target module. Leak rate 8XE-9 atm.cc/sec. It cannot be confirmed since the TM o-ring is just beside it. Mostly, the leak is on dump module side. We changed TM flange o-ring every year. But we never changed dump module flange o-ring in history. Many copper cooling lines above the dump module has to be removed to remove the dump module out. I do not think we have time to do it this year. Also,  the leak rate is pretty small. Maybe, we can schedule it next year.

  Most these small leaks are close to turbopumps. This could be the reason the ITW vacuum on gauges are still pretty good.

Helium pressure 70 psi. 3 minutes on each circle untill LR on LD is balanced. Base leak rate on LD:0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec.   The result:

A:   slowly to1.8Xe-8atm.cc/sec after 2 minutes and balanced there. 

B:   slowly to 2.0XE-8 atm.cc/sec after 2 minutes and balanced there.

C:  quickly response  to 3.1XE-8 atm.cc/sec and balance there.

D : slowly to 3.0X E-9 atm.cc/sec and balanced there.

All others including coil1, coil 2 ,MSP, EE, HS, window are perfectly leak tight. No response on LD.

 The leak rate on A,B,C,D are in low E-8 or E-9 atm.cc/sec range.  They should seal cooling water without leak.    No concern. 

ITE primary and secondary  vacuum vessel leak check has been down.  Base leak rate 0.0x E-9 atm.cc/sec on LD. Only 2.8 XE-9 atm.cc/sec leak has been found on big T tank seal which is very tiny. all other seals are perfect leak free.   No concern

Travis and Nadia moved TM2 from ITW to NHC this morning. The move is smooth and successful.

Frank and I replaced ITW Exit module 1 side square service panel o-ring seal. Also, The target module pit top flange o-ring seal in ITW pit is replaced.  

TM2( no target ) has been moved  from NHC to SMP.  The moving is smooth and successful.

Tom Gauss inspected  two target module lifting frames ITA0494-1997-01 and ITA0494-1997-02.. He certified the use of these two frames. Inspection tags have been issued and attached to frames. He has inspection record on them. See attachments.

Tom Kauss inspected target hall crane below hook attachment pins and plates ITA6550-01. He certified the use of these pins and plates. The inspection of these pins and plates was in Target hall crane annual check list. It was issued as a calibration index by Isaac Earle in 2022-Feb-08.  After inspection, The inspection tag  was issued and attached to pin. Tom has an inspection record on this job. See attachments.

TM4 was removed from NHC to S_W silo yesterday.  The remove is smooth and successful.

TH emergency exit hatch which is located on TH west end roof is opened and closed for functional check. The hatch works fine. The limit switch on hatch is in position. No obstacle on hatch way to the roof. 

ITE/ITW  are cleaned with vacuum canister. HV  cage inside and blue nylon insulators are wiped.  Garbage inside the pits are cleaned out.

Two shielding blocks  above vacuum station at TH west end were opened for inspection. Checked ITH:MP1, MP2 lubricant color and level through sight gauge on pumps. They are still ok.  Restored the shielding blocks.  Checked ITM:MP1 by decay tank (Mirror checked  sight gauge by north wall). Added lubricant to ITM:MP1 to middle level on sight gauge.  

Tom Kauss finished target hall overhead crane annual inspection today. The crane works fine. He issued new inspection tag and e-logged the job. 

Spent target UCx #33 has been repacked with a new pail and lid in NHC. Old pail #255. New pail # 267. Location: Vault slot 1C.  it is an investigation job for  a possible leak pail in vault.  

  Carla did the test. and reported the result as following: HV testing of ITW is complete. It was pretty well behaved up to 59.5kV, and sat at 59kV for 30mins with no sparks (that EPICS caught). There was some strange behaviour of the current between 51kV and 53kV - it was jumping by 20uA or more - but there didn't seem to be any voltage response, and it went away after 53kV (though it returned on the way back down). The test was done in Feb 02.

Carla did the test. That is what she wrote in Feb 04th:  "I am done with the HV testing at ITE - the results were the same as at ITW. It stayed at 59kV for 30 mins with no issues. Trying to go above 59.5kV is probably possible but a bit more risky. ITE also has a band, from 54-56kV, where the current jumps around like crazy".

UCX34# in pail 258(Vault lot 7C) has been repacked today. It is an investigation to find a possible leak source of radioactive Iodine in vault. The new pail number is 268. It is back to vault 7c . I wrote down the information in log book. The job is smooth today. I retrieved UCx 34 old pail and liner to TH. The liner from UCx#34 only has 3000 counts.  I bagged it. It could be used later. However, the pail has 500K counts contamination on bottom outside rim. It may accidently be slided out of plastic bag and touched the NHC table during the repackage. I bagged it and store it in silo area. When we do drum clean up, I will throw it in the drum.

Polyurethane  water cooling lines in ITE and ITW  HV shroud are replaced.  Both stations Ta, Tu, MSP, HS, Coil , EE in HV shroud are new lines.

UCx 32# P2N target in vault slot 1B is repacked is morning for Ferran to take out his samples( in two small plastic containers) stored in pail last July when Chad did the spent target job. The job went well.  Old pail # is 254# and new pail # is 233. It is put back to 1B in vault.

Replaced 9 old turbo pumps from ITE/ ITW and  one 2A3M20 wire scanner from ITE are transferred to cyclotron tunnel for storage. It is TH RAD waste cleanup task in winter shut down.
