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.

100 liters of high active water from HALCW system( mostly from s-tank and pipe lines closing to pumps) are transferred to holding tank in 2A tunnel. Transfer is smooth.  it is a preparation job for ITC:MP1/MP2 refurbishment.  water sample is passed to RPG for assay.

ITE entrance module has been disconnected per document 190510. Its a preparation job for next month module moving out to SHC.

ITE entrance module has been moved from ITE pit to TCS. The move is smooth.ITE entrance module top tank flange and o ring slot are cleaned, and old o ring are replaced.

 Thursday, March 21, 2024, 11:33 Three channels are available now for thermocouple readouts from the Target multipin. Wiring from the PLC modules to the connection terminal blocks and labeling done.

ITE entrance module has been moved from TCS to ITE. The move is smooth.

ITE entrance module has been reconnected in ITE pit per document 190510.

ITE entrance module top and module flange o-ing to tank have been leak checked. no leak at 0.0xe-9 atm.cc/sec. things are double checked.

On April 2, 2024 the wrist on the SE manipulator of the SHC (Serial # 7986) was swapped with a rebuild unit originally from SW position (serial # 8106). The "new" wrist was a wrist + tong assembled unit with the tong cable being routed if-front of the spacer A-14118 rather then behind as in all previous replacements (see attached pictures). This change was a result of a discussion with Central Research's senior repair technician who informed us that the original routing was incorrect from the factory. This can be seen when inspecting unit we have on-site that are still in the original configuration from the factory as about half are routed one way and half the other.

both high active pumps ITC:MP1 and MP2 are refurbished by RH group Maico and Peter. Pumps have been installed back to system with new inlet/outlet flange gaskets. high active water surging tank is refilled with water and pumps were primed. I asked operator to switch on pumps separately. Both pumps work fine. They are quiet and pumps discharging pressure is a little bit better comparing to before refurbishment. Nitrogen gas is injecting into system. O2 level is decreasing and R is going up.

2024-04-09: Joel.S checked pumps phase current draw: MP1 16.8 to 17.1A on each phase. MP2 17.0 to 17.2 A on each phase. They are normal. Pump body temperature are below 45C which is fine. 

water are supplied to both ITE and ITW. I did a general inspection on HALCW system. Two small leaks on 2" shut off valves are fixed. No other leak has been found so far. all water flow meters work fine. MP2 pump discharging pressure is ok which is just above 100 psi on local gauge reading. pump noise are low. pump body temperature is less than 45C which is good. 

Monday and Tuesday, I started TCS water system and enabled the TCS chillers auto stage in/out. I saw chiller 2 in/out three times at 17C and 21.8C without issue.   TCS water system works fine. The test is finished.

ITH:MP1S pump inside lubricant was changed today. old lubricant is dirty with dark color. they are stored in sealed waste oil jug and stored in silo area. Pump has been installed back and started. It works fine.

ITW gas lines pumped down to 2e-3Torr on leak detector with leak rate in the low e-7 atm-cc/s. Gas bottles opened at 3psi and labels in epics changed to reflect correct setup. switch box set to cathode mode, checked that anode wire was at HV common.

note ballast is removed from ITW now to be used in ITE so that line is blanked off.

 The Ta#66 target was repacked after the parasitic target was removed it was place in a new pail (#290) and place back in spot 5B of the vault. See attached PDF for further details.

ISAC Storage Vault Door Re-alignment (April-May 2024) 

Issue

• Rollers gouging and marking on roller supports, testing shows door shifts at least 185 thou on structural beam when fully open vs. fully closed
• door misaligned: 1/4" laterally, slight rotation (~1/16" difference across closed door gap).

Repair

• Moved left structural beam (facing front of door) inward 1/4" at post.
• Loosened drive system to shift door over via crane to average laterally (1/8" shift) towards center,
• Attempted to fix door rotation with crane, door would not settle down perfectly flush, but got slight improvement 
• Adjusted limit switches for fully open and closed (due to the adjustments made previously, needed to realign limit switches) - adjusted flag for final close back by ~1/4"; adjusted limit switch at back of vault forward ~1/4" 

Verification 

• Unloaded vault door actuation tested multiple times with no issues, door returned to same position every cycle, no interferences during travel
• Vault Door actuation tested with trays 4 and 6 engaged, no issues
• All pails accessible when open
• Tested open and closed limit switches: the open limit switches are working properly; the closing soft and hard limit switches are slightly close together, causing the door to just "bump" the vault when closing, The scale of this is OK for current operation, will be adjusted when the ISAC Target Hall Controls Overhaul is done
• Tested and reset Emergency override mechanism - works properly

Outstanding Tasks

• Will paint marks on structural supports to track if problem reoccurs - update ELog when complete 

System State: Operational

See attached file for details

The ITW Faraday Cage has been cleaned, this is part of Winter Shut Down job happens in ISAC-1 Electric maintenance room annually.

 F308 Inspection and service complete on #06, #08, #13, #15, #16, #19, #20, #21, #22.

All in good condition with new gasket material installed on #20.

Prepped for move to ISAC B3 for storage.

 Targets UC#38,40 Ta#62,63 SiC#44 have been moved from the spent target vault to the mini vault in preparation for F-308 loading. See attached PDFs for details.

MCR Travis Curucz and I finished BL2A MAA ASU test per document 154779. everything works fine. Travis kept  the test document.
