  2241   Wednesday, August 11, 2021, 11:15 Adam NewsomeSpent Target VaultDevelopment  Mini-Storage: Cable track for e-chain installed

A cable track was installed between the mini-storage vault and the silos, for the purpose of implementing a retractable cable chain (e-chain). This will allow for cables to be managed during door opening/closing, so that remote control operation of the door will be possible in the future. See Work Permit I2021-08-11-2 (Aug 11)

Holes were drilled into the motor mounting plate (IRH2089) to allow for mounting a limit switch on the plate. See Work Permit I2021-08-17-7 (Aug 17)

Preliminary testing was completed in which the e-chain was fixed to the door with a C-clamp. Local and remote functionality were checked, and limit switch functionality was verified. Everything is working as expected. A final test will be conducted once the e-chain is fixed to the door and cabling routed through it. See Work Permit I2021-08-19-1 (Aug 19)

 

The e-chain has not yet been fixed to the vault door - holes will be drilled in-situ after preliminary testing is complete to confirm positioning.

 Edit [2021-09-23]: the installation is complete and has been tested.

  2250   Thursday, September 23, 2021, 19:04 Adam NewsomeSpent Target VaultDevelopment  Mini-Storage: Remote Capability

Remote capability was added for the mini-storage door control. The control signals originate from the Opto 22 Module box that is used for the SMP remote control (this is located just above the storage vault).
The controls signal assignment document has been updated and can be found in C:\PDM Vault\PDM_Vault\_models\isac\isac1\wpn-3919 - safe module parking\Electrical

In order to operate remotely:
- Plug the mini-storage control box power cable into a wall outlet (adjacent main storage vault, under stairs)
- Plug the motor output cable into the mini-storage door motor
- Unplug the local pendant from the box
- Plug the cable that comes from the remote module box into the connector that the pendant was plugged into (M12, 5 pole Murr connector)
- Using the remote control program from the ISAC RH control room, click on the Mini-Storage option and then click buttons for open and close to operate the door (note: it is important to verify both opening and closing functions work before attempting any remote operation).

Remote and local functionality have been tested and verified working.

It is recommended to mount the mini-storage control box in a convenient area near the mini-storage (possibly on the wall adjacent the main storage vault).

Please contact me if you have any further questions.

  2268   Monday, November 15, 2021, 12:15 Adam NewsomeSouth Hot-CellRepair  Squeaking noise during turntable rotation - chain misalignment and improper tension

It was noted on Nov. 9 that a squeaking noise was present when the turntable was rotated CCW with a module present.

 

Upon inspection, it appears the issue could be due to drive chain misalignment and improper tension. Furthermore, it was noted that a shaft collar on one of the existing chain tensioners was broken (a replacement was ordered).

 

Repairs will be performed on Nov. 19 to resolve these issues by re-aligning the chain, and resetting the tensioners. The turntable will be tested. This e-log will be updated once the work is complete and the system is returned to a functioning state. See Work Permit I2021-11-09--3

 

Edit, Nov. 19: the aforementioned repairs were completed and the turntable has been tested and is operating correctly. No squeaking noise is present. It is suggested to increase the diameter of the two chain tensioner shafts (and thus modify related bearing and shaft collar components) in order to prevent bending of the shaft which was observed. This will be done in the near future.

  2272   Monday, November 22, 2021, 12:44 Adam NewsomeCraneRepair  Crane PLC Fault: 0004h

An issue was observed in which the target hall crane was not functioning: the N-E-S-W and up/down motions did not work, however the rotation motion did work. These symptoms were similar to what was observed in the past under https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/RH-ISAC/2039 and https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/RH-ISAC/1845

The crane control console was not powered (i.e. pressing the ON/OFF buttons when the selector switch was set to remote mode, even when safety conditions were met, did not enable/disable remote functionality). The power supplies were checked and everything appeared to be powered as would be expected, except for items which depended on the main contactor (O-K1) being energized. This contactor needs the PLC to be in an operational state, fault-free. The PLC was checked and the red fault light was flashing. The battery light was not on (i.e. battery was OK).

The program was re-downloaded to the PLC. During an attempt to go online with the PLC, error code 0004h appeared (see attached image for description). This is an unfamiliar error code - typically the aforementioned symptoms arise due to a battery failure and the program being lost. In this case it is uncertain at this time what the cause of this fault is. It will be monitored in the future to determine if it occurs again, and further investigation will be performed.

After re-downloading the program and placing the PLC in RUN mode, the crane was fully restored to its operating state - the main contactor was able to be energized once again. The crane was put into remote mode and a brief functionality test on the motion axes was performed: OK.
