The emergency close mechanism for the Storage Vault door was tested by Adam Newsome and Travis Cave. The door was opened to its fully open limit, then closed with the emergency system.

The test was successful.

  2132   Thursday, August 06, 2020, 14:33 Adam NewsomeSpent Target VaultDevelopment  Safety Group Relay Interface Installation

A relay contact-based interface module was installed in between Safety Group's storage vault door enable junction box and Remote Handling's control module for the vault door.

The purpose of this module, which contains a diode bridge and relay, is to isolate the safety system from the control module to prevent back-voltage on the safety system which can damage the PLC's power supply.

In the new configuration, rather than receiving a 24 VDC signal from the safety PLC, this signal activates the relay, whose normally closed contacts supply 24 VDC (from internal) to the safety relay inside the control module. Wiring was modified inside the control module to account for this change.

In investing how to achieve the same functionality as before this change, it was determined that the control module's electrical schematic was not correct and did not reflect the actual wiring. A new schematic was created for this based on the actual wiring, including new changes.

The system was tested by locking out the target hall, and verifying that:
- No failure occurred on the power supply for the safety PLC
- This new relay actuated when the target hall was locked out (i.e. received signal from PLC)
- This new relay correctly supplied 24 VDC to the safety relay within the control module, allowing for the Opto-22 control unit to output control signals to the motors

 

Note: currently the soft limit switches for the vault door close/open have been bypassed. This is not a safety issue; the door can still be fully opened and closed remotely (but the open override and close override buttons are rendered useless). The bypass will be rectified in the coming weeks and this e-log will be updated accordingly.

Edit (Aug. 13, 2020): the issue regarding the limit switches has been resolved. The entire system is functioning as it was prior to the safety interface installation.

 UC#30 has been placed into the spent target vault, it was placed in pail 238 and in spot 1A of the vault. It was 81.5 mSv/hr when removed from the south hot cell. 

  2158   Tuesday, October 27, 2020, 11:46 Matthew GareauNorth Hot-CellRepair  Ratcheting repair issues with both left and right master

 

The were issues with both left and right master ratcheting;

- the left handle was getting stuck in a close position when there was a higher ratcheting tension added

- the right ratcheting was not tightening preventing proper use of the manipulator


Chad and myself were able to identify a missing set screw for the tong cable.

Once this was added the issue with the left master ratcheting seems to be solved.


Lubricant was added to the left master ratchet and this seems to solve this problem as well.


There was also an observation of missing set screws on the spare manipulator for attaching the wrist to the ratcheting handle, which will need to be ordered and attached.

 Targets Ta#48,51,54 SiC#35, and UC#25 were repacked and placed in the mini vault. In the following order back to front. SiC#35 (240), Ta#54(241), UC#25(244), Ta#48(243), Ta#51(242).

Also during this repacking Ta#60 was also placed in the Spent Target Vault in spot 7B in pail# 239.

The Target Hall Crane has been shut down in preparation for the power outage tomorrow (Dec 22). Power will be restored on Dec 23.

 

Dec 23 update: power has been restored. The crane appears to be in working condition as there is no fault indicator on the PLC.

  2174   Thursday, December 24, 2020, 09:00 Matthew GareauNorth Hot-CellDevelopment   NHC USB connection

24/Noc/2020

USB was discovered to be in the reverse direction and will need to be change around to become operational

 

01/Dec/2020

USB was pulled from conduit

While attempting to re-pull the USB in the correction direction, the ethernet cable was damaged and need to be replaced,

(thanks to the Hubert's team for the wire help) 

It was decided that it was too problematic to re-pull the wires with all other wires in the way. Therefore all the wires were removed from the operator control panel, and pulled so that the USB, USB power cord, and ethernet could be re-pulled all together.

However, even once all the wires were re-pulled and reconnected it was discovered that the USB had become damaged, and was removed again.

 

23/Dec/2020

- A new conduit was added through to the NHC, for only the USB

- USB was fed through, reconnected, and tested

- Putty will need to be added around the conduit to ensure a good seal into NHC
