Electrical checks of TM#4 with UC#10 post beam and Ta#44 before beam see attached PDF for details.

TM#4 with UC#10 has been moved from the conditioning station to the east target station.

Electrical check of TM#4 with UC#10 from thursday.

TM#4 with UC#10 has been moved from the east target station to the south hot cell.

UC#10 has been moved from the south hot cell to the spent target vault. It was placed in Pail #119 and in slot 8B. For further details see attached PDF.

TM4 with UC# 28 target has been moved from ITW to the South Hot Cell. Shield plug installed in ITW.

Chad and i did a leak check on TM1heat shield with UCx target on.The circuit are pumped  down to the bottom leak rate and base pressure is 3xE-3 torr on the leak detector. There are two VCR caps on heat shield circuit. Chad sprayed helium on both of them   ( tested individually,2 seconds every time ) . The test repeated 1 time.There is no response on leak detector during 45 seconds waiting time on both time.Chad flushed helium around the target for 15 second. During 1 minutes waiting time , there is no response on leak detector.The heat shield circuit is leak tight at this stage. It will be helium pressure  in CS later.

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 

 TM4 with new target TiC#9 Surface installed in SHC was leak/electric checked before moving to TCS. See attached pic pls.

 TM4 with target TiC#9 is connected in ITW. See attachment.

 TM4 with spent target TiC#9 was disconnected in 29-10-2024 and it is being moved from ITW to SHC.

 David made electrical check right after TM4 is moved from ITW to SHC. see attachment pls.

• Water from waterline found puddled on source-tray and containment box. 
• Water was wiped up as much as possible, but likely still in containment box 
• leaving to dry overnight
• Target inserted into Hotcell with nuts for the parasitic target. 4/4 socket nuts installed on upstream flange, and 3/4 installed on downstream flange

September 10, 2024 - Aaron Tam

• TiC#9 HP-SIS installed onto TM4 
• Leak check passed after retightening VCR joint
• Target Electrode Conductor screws torqued to 130 inch-lbs 
• Electrical test passed 
• Containment box cover reinstalled

TM4 has been moved from SHC to TCS. The move is smooth.

TM4 has been moved from TCS to ITW. The move is smooth.

 Post Irradiation Examination

October 9, 2024 - Aaron Tam 

Goal: Training (First PIE by Aaron), Characterize any anomalies 

Notes:

• Overall the target looks exceedingly clean with only some discolouration on the copper behind the target tube, and multipin cable insulation. 

November 5, 2024 - Aaron Tam

TiC#9 HP-SIS removed from TM4

• Top left fixing bolt shows signs of heating on it (Comparison photos attached Bolt_profile.jfif  & Bolt_Tops.jfif)
• Location and orientation of darker bolt (Darker_bolt.jfif)

Parasitic Targets Removed

• Left target has residue left from ablation 

See photos attached for detail 

 TiC#9 was placed in Pail 299 in spot 8A of the vault and was 92.1mSv/hr when removed from the south hot cell. See attached pdf for full vault details.

 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)

TM3 has been connected in ITW. See attachment for checklist.
