Entry  Thursday, January 16, 2014, 10:36, chad fisher, South Hot-Cell, Repair, , , East Manipulator Repair Manip_repair_20140114.jpgManip_repair_20140115.jpg

The repair/cable replacement on the east manipulator is now complete.

Yesterday's initail cable replacement went very well however, due to a minor glich, we were unable to test the tong movement until I was out of the hot cell. Tong did not fully close and felt like there was a "hard stop" at a repeatable spot in the  closing of the tong. Upon further investagation, I determined that the problem was definelty on the slave side.

I conducted a troublshooting exercise this morning to narrow down the problem. I quickly found that the new tong came from the manufacture with two incorrect fasteners (socket head cap screws) instead of set screws. As a result the tong was being kept from closing as the head of the socket head cap screws was interfering.

I replaced the SHCS was the set screws from the old tong. The tong now functions with full range of motion.

Jan. 15, 37 minutes in cell .26 mSv

Jan. 16, 16 minutes in cell (as I did some clean up of compressable waste) .05 mSv

Also, the inital repair utilized a prototype tool I designed (and with assistance from Maico, built). This tool made the repair much easier. I will be making small improvements to the design and issuing drawings to the vault and shop.

In preparation for removing the slave for replacement I discovered that the timing screw in the handle cable drum (master side) had been left threaded into the pulley...it should have been completely removed. It was bent from hitting on a casting inside the mater arm which most likely contributed to the hopped pulleys on the slave side. After removing this timing screw I entered the north hot cell and replaced the hopped cable back onto its pulley and Isaac tested the motions that previous caused the hopped cables. These tasks were repeated 4 times without any issues. Also of note is a missing setscrew in the tong cable pulley pin and a somewhat loose tape on the slave, also the tape shows signs of a crimp/bend. Upon further inspection and comparison with the other slaves I also found that one of the "lock-down" fittings tying the Z motion tape drum to the corresponding gear is completely missing. See pictures attached.

Entry  Thursday, May 03, 2018, 13:26, Anders Mjos, South Hot-Cell, Repair, TM4, , EZL short troubleshooting 

Yesterday Aaron, Isaac and Anders inspected the EZL connection from the service chase to the optics tray using the goose neck camera in SHC. No issues or shorts could be identified. Containment box was not removed.

Today David and Anders opened up two panels on the service cap and inspected the EZL connection. No issues or shorts could be identified. Photos available on DocuShare.

Next step will likely be to remove the containment box and inspect the optics tray.

The containment box was removed yesterday. One of the main insulators on the source tray had cracked at the rear close to the bolt to the source tray mounting plate (see photos using link above)

Troubleshooting continued this morning with disconnection of the optics tray from the module. The banana plug copper tube connection was removed form the optics tray side. With the connection removed, the measurement showed open line on top of the module indicating that the problem is on the optics tray

Chad changed the EZL cable and plugs on TM2. New cable runs along the cable trays.

This morning the Einzel Lens was tested on TM3 as the intention is to reuse this piece of equipment. The EL was able to achieve 39.9kV at ~1.35mA before a major spark happened and the power supply turned off. Also during testing the penning gauge suddenly shot up after a spark, it did not recover and had been acting strange in previous test, it was decided to ignore its value and continue testing but it should be replaced in the future. When I went to save the strip tool data I tried to save it as SDDS binary data out of curiosity and the tool crashed, it turns out this is on old feature and doesn't work anymore. A file was created but I cannot recover any of the data. If I do manage to do so I will will attach it later. Attached is the RGA and Archiver data. 

Other items of note:

Voltage was increased in 1000V increments until ~32kV when it started to have sparks. Increases were then reduced to 500V until 38kV when it sparked and further reduced to 100V increments where it worked until 39.9kV

There is a inline and ballast resistor on the EL circuit values of each respectively are 145Kohm and 200 Mohm

The rga application is available at

 The lost Binary file. Binary files are no longer used and cause the the tool to crash. The option has not been removed from the strip tool users are just supposed to know not to use it.

Entry  Wednesday, December 02, 2015, 10:41, chad fisher, South Hot-Cell, Repair, , , Drum Clean-up #2 

Another drum of waste was removed from the south hot cell this morning. This drum contained one 5 gal steel pail (damaged), two sodium light bulbs, airlines, and tank suits. Upon removal the drum was/is 1.5 mSv/h on contact. there was 200 counts of contamination found on the lid...easily removed. It will be moved to the north hot cell at 11am.
