Six F-308's where received from Nordion #6,#15,#13,#16 all contained contamination. Loose contamination was removed with some fixed contamination remaining levels are low enough to allow the transport of spent targets. flasks where serviced as per Nordion Document IS/PP 0009 F308, IS/PP 0981 F308. Flasks are now located in the north hot cell area.

Today (2024-02-16), three flasks were loaded in preparation for shipment with the following targets: UCx#39, UCx#41 and C#3.

Note: prior to shipping, the pails within these flasks will need to have a crimped lifting loop added to them.

The mini-storage vault is now EMPTY.

The target index spreadsheet has been updated.

Today (2024-02-09), five flasks were loaded in preparation for shipment with the following targets: SiC#41, SiC#42, Nb#9, UC#36, Ta#58.

Note: prior to shipping, the pails within these flasks will need to have a crimped lifting loop added to them.

The mini-storage vault is now EMPTY.

The target index spreadsheet has been updated.

All the F-308's can back from being certified at Nordion.  All of the F-308's have been serviced and are ready to be filled with spent targets.

All of the serviced F-308's have been moved to the South Hot cell area.

Five F - 308 flasks containing five ISAC spent targets were moved from the anteroom into the south hot cell area. When the F - 308's were in the south hot cell area the rest of the bolts were installed on all the top covers. All the bolts were torqued and all the cable locks were also installed. All F - 308's  were then moved into the Active Services Area.

F-308's have been serviced and are ready to be filled with spent targets. F-308's witch were serviced are #6,#13,#15,#16,and #19.

5 pails were moved from the mini-storage vault into F-308's

At one point during the loading the mini-storage vault door would not close. Cause was a blown fuse, which was replaced and operations were able to continue as usual. Possible reason the fuse blow was a tilted pail that may have become jammed between the tray and the roof of the mini-storage vault. 

[Edit 2022-12-01, Adam Newsome]: the pails which were removed were: 220, 227, 233, 235, 238

The F-308 have been cleaned and serviced. There were three F-308's that came back with some contamination.#13, #15 and #19 were found to have contamination. They were decontaminated. All of the loose contamination was removed. There is still some fixed contamination. The levels of contamination are low enough to still be used for shipping spent targets. They have been moved to the north hot cell area and are ready for to be filled with spent targets. 

The F-308's have been serviced and are ready to be filled. All inspection records are stored  in docushare.

All the F-308's have been torqued up  and the locks installed. Ready to be moved.

The failed extraction electrode was inspected in the hot cell this morning by Anders and Chad. The following electrical measurements were taken

• EE on target assembly as recieved from TM after online operation. 14 Ohm
• EE removed from target assembly and placed on conductive flat surface. ~1 G-Ohm at 1kV
• EE installed back onto target assembly (fasteners not tightened).~ 0.8 G-Ohm at 1 kV

There was some material deposited on the EE. Some of which has fallen off - possibly during removal of the electrode from the target assembly. It seems the cause of the short was material build up between plasma electrode and extraction electrode. See photos.

The heat shield lid was removed after lunch. This revealed a broken target. The target may have broken after operation (in hot cell).

The west exit #2 module has been moved from the south hot cell to the conditioning station.

Actuator arms, lemos, lemos and banana plug block have been disconnected in preparation for raising of the service tray. Aaron has pictures

Cover 1 was removed from the exit module. Confirmed with David that the actuator rod that needed to be disconnected was the far left )as viewed by the hot cell operator). The fastener for this rod was un-accessible from this side. Cover 1 was re-installed (two bolts left loose) and cover 2 was removed. fastener holding the actuator together was removed and luckily it does have a remote start.
