 Nov. 8, 2024 - Aaron Tam 

Tong cable snapped when attempting to remove multipin connector bracket 

Assistance from Chad required for the rest of procedure 

Tic#9 was loaded into Pail#299 

  • Along with fixing and conductor bolts (no other material was loaded)

 November 14, 2024 - Aaron Tam w/ Chad Fisher 

Following ID: 2716   
"Nov. 8, 2024 - Aaron Tam 
Tong cable snapped when attempting to remove multipin connector bracket"

Repair went as follows:

  • weighted clip attached to tong return side to tension/keep tapes on pulleys
  • Manipulator was pinned from both sides (Pinning from master side first makes it easier to position slave side)
  • clamps were used to suspend all tapes and cables near the relay bracket 
  • extension tube limit clamps were moved to the top to stop it from dropping when Z motion tapes disconnected
  • Z motion tapes/tension adjusting screws taken off master carriage and suspended with equalizing weight ~10+ lbs)
  • Extension tube limit clamps and extension tube lowered give space to expose multiplier later 
  • Wrist joint and handle removed as a unit 
  • extension tube to multiplier screws taken out
  • Extension tube raised to expose multiplier - using extension tube to wrist joint positioning clamp to keep it in place 
  • Old cable removed
  • new cable installed

installation in reverse with spare master handle 

Notes:

Spare master wrist joint was missing gears that connect wrist drums 

  • this had to be disassembled and installed with gears from old wrist joint

Handle ratcheting pawl spring was not oriented properly, so this had to be disassembled and reinstalled properly (in the process one spring was lost Part#: A-5800)

 November 26, 2024 - Aaron Tam 

Handover from TPO and inspection

  • Completed
  • Some modification to the center Inner-Outer conductor had to be made (hole enlarged as tab was slightly short)

Target Insertion:

  • Successful 

Target Mounting:

  • Upon fully seating UC#47 on service tray locating pins, the gas line VCR gasket came off 
    • Operator doesn't have line-of-sight to this area, so there has to be healthy clearance (Foreshadowing) 
    • Gas line VCR gasket reinstalled using manipulators  
  • 2nd seating of UC#47 on service tray locating pins, the gas line VCR gasket came off again
    • Some alignment interference with the gas line coupling is the cause of the gasket falling off during placement (photo attached)
    • Gas line on service tray was loosened, raised to highest position and fastened (Photo attached)
    • Failed to re-install VCR gasket (Plastic separated from gasket material)
  • Target removed from Hot cell to reinstall gaskets and make modifications to the gas-line coupling
    • Gas line coil plastically deformed to give less of a spring action so the coupling can stay down under friction until it is time to couple
    • Target carefully inserted into hot cell without disturbing spring/friction of gas-line coupling. 
      • This had to be repeated several times. Once for the waterline gaskets coming off, and a few other times to insert the target/tray without disturbing sprung coupling
  • Target mounted without issue after the above steps successfully 

Gas and Water Services:

  • VCR connections coupled 
  • Leak test passed
    • leak test faster today because module had been left in silo for a long time to dry out. 
  • Gas line no-longer needed, so was not checked

Electrical Services:

  • Conductor bolts installed
  • All bolts (including mounting bolts) checked for fit with mirror
  • Coil conductor bolts torqued to at least 130inch-lbs 
  • Electrical test completed 

Containment box panel reinstalled 

Cleared area around module for craning out.

  2724   Thursday, November 28, 2024, 16:13 Aaron TamSouth Hot-CellStandard Operation TiC#9 ParasiticsTiC#9 Parasitics Leak Check and removal from hotcell

 November 27th, 2024 - Aaron Tam with Farran & David 

Parasitic Assembly Leak Check (Aaron, Farran, David)

-Note that the furthest upstream (right of the target) parasitic top cap screws had been loosened and retightened in error when attempting to remove it off TiC#9

-This puts this data point into question 

-Leak check starting from upstream to down stream 

-First parasitic had no leak 

-Second parasitic had some leak 

-Third parasitic was not pumping down at all

-First parasitic checked on test hose again with same success

Parasitic Dis-assembly (Aaron) 

-First parasitic had good tension in all 3 screws

-second parasitic had 2 screws with a perceptible breaking-loose of the screws, but one was imperceptible 

-Third parasitic had lower (than first parasitic), but okay tension in all 3 screws 

In an attempt to move the PEEK seal into a safe spot with tweezers, this one was accidentally sprung across the hotcell in the direction of the tool port 

A lengthy attempt to find it was conducted, but no PEEK seal was recovered 

This may effect our ability to do work during hot cell entries coming up. 

PEEK Seal extraction (Aaron, Farran) 

-A labeled bag was inserted into the hotcell via the tool port and onto an existing tray in the Hotcell

-PEEK seal placed inside bag, placed back on tray, and moved back to the tool port for extraction

-With tool port open, the draft was able to push the bag across the lift table. Changing the cross section exposed to the draft works to keep the bag from moving

-Farran used picker to extract the bag into the tool port where he wiped and placed into separate bag.

-This process was repeated for the second PEEK seal 

-Bags were wiped and swiped, put in another bag, swiped and brought over to Hot cell Service area Lab

  Note: Ta#68 had a difficult install. See E-log ID# 2698 for more info 

First look:

  • Containment box cover looks the same as previous (See:ID: 2697)
  • Target shows large amount of soot-like deposits (See photos for locations)
  • Deposits seem to have been left on parts of the service tray as well ie.: Multipin connector 

Removal:

  • Removal was smooth
  • Water-line bracket fixing bolts seemed loose even before I put a tool to them 

Eyes of sides:

  • Better photos of where deposits are 
  • Everything else seems normal

  2732   Wednesday, December 04, 2024, 14:30 Aaron TamSouth Hot-CellStandard Operation Ta#68Ta#68 PIE

 Abstract:
This target has seen some irregular beam patterns 
Possibility that the beam hit the walls of the target tube or even the cooling fins
This PIE we want to investigate how the irregular beam physically affected the target 

Related ELOGS: 
ID: 2728
ID: 2698

PIE was performed by Aaron Tam, Directed by Aurelia Laxdal, Observed by Lucas Backes, Special help from Chad Fisher 

External views:

  • Windows are clear of any irregularities 
  • More pictures of this can be found in RH-ISAC E-log 2728

Internal Views:

  • Heatshield internal
    • Some discolouration from heat and soot deposits.
    • This seems to be fairly clean to normal amounts - not concerning 
  • Target tube
    • tube is bent with the middle higher than the sides
    • Target tube was not removed 9/64ths allen wrench could not be located for this operation 
  • Target tube Exit
    • Heatshield windows were punctured to reveal the target tube entraces/exits
    • Entrance is waterline side (ITE)
  • Extraction electrode parts were removed from the back off the target
    • These parts look normal
    • some of the extraction electrode would not pull out due to tight fitting parts and the investigation stopped here.

Conclusion: Target physical condition is normal as far as we could investigate

December 5, 2024 - Aaron Tam w/ help from Chad, Peter and Adam at the Crane  

Hot Cell Prep:

  • Tools organized, working space cleared, spot for clean tool to sit placed, Air tool is open and spinning clockwise for tightening 

Loading:

  • Ta#68 was loaded into pail# 300
  • PEEK seal parasitic assemblies loaded (PEEK seals were removed in ID: 2724)
  • Farran had some old samples that also went in (More details to come when Farran sends the info)

Lid/latching:

  • This went smoothly

Bail attachment:

  • Some difficulty in attaching the Lifting Bail, but went on smoothly with the help of Chad

Notes:

  • One of the PEEK seal parasitic Target assembly lids was missed in the loading. This will have to be loaded next time. 
  • All parasitic type targets remain in the yellow container shown in photos below.
