September 3rd
David Wang and myself lowered the leak testing cart into the Ante room and prepared the ante-room for the leak testing of TM3s line. David and
Grant then entered the anteroom and inspected the old c-seal and leak tested the the heat shield line. The line pumped down to the lower limits of the |

|
Today Maico measured the thickness of three indium-plated inconel c-seals, presumably Ultra-Seal P/N 50606. These seals had NOT been in the Hot
Cell.

|
Yesterday, Grant entered the Ante Room with David Wang to visually inspect the two sets of failed c-seals from the Heat Shield circuit, to remove the
second set from the Heat Shield water blocks, and to leak check the heat shield circuit with o-rings and a water-block-to-leak-detector fitting.
Some photos of the inspected seals are in the attached design review presentation. Some unusual marks were observed on both sets of failed |
Friday, September 06, 2013, 16:41, Bevan Moss, South Hot-Cell, Development, TM3, , C-Seal crush investigation 6x
|
Today Maico completed the new leak testing tool and blank off. He tested them with C-seals without springs and all was leak tight. He then inspected
the crushed seals and noticed that there was an area that was crushed less on both seals (more prominent in one, 20130906_tm3sourtrayefurb_P1020975)
and that this reduced crushed zone only appears on one side of the seal. This is similar to the failure seen on both sets of the heat shield lines. On |

|
The sealing surfaces of the module side heat shield water block were polished on September 9th in the morning using Chad's polishing tool with
the following attachments:
- Scotchbrite pads (30 seconds) (after this step indium material from the previous seal was no longer visible on the sealing surface) |

September 9th
Today Maico completed the leak checking blank off and leak checking tool (to replace the one that was contaminated). This tool was then leak checked |

|
I leak checked TM3 water lines at CS with 60 psi and 80psi helium. The base leak rate is 5.0xe-9 atm.cc/sec. Each circuit 3 minutes helium pressurizing
for each time test. No any respose had been found on leak detector during the test. See attachment |
Tuesday, September 17, 2013, 14:36, Bevan Moss, South Hot-Cell, Standard Operation, TM3, , Containment Box has been removed
|
The containment box has been removed. Tomorrow the wiring harness will be installed. |
Thursday, September 19, 2013, 09:08, Travis Cave, South Hot-Cell, Standard Operation, TM3, no target, wiring harness
|
The wiring harness for TM#3 was made and a continuity and megger test was done on it and it passed, it has since been installed into the hot cell and
placed on the module. |
Thursday, September 19, 2013, 11:09, Travis Cave, South Hot-Cell, Maintenance, TM3, no target, Electrical check
|
Electrical check of TM#3 with no target was performed and it failed. There is a 135M Ohm short
between the coils and a 165M Ohm short between the coil and 60kV common. All other circuits passed they were infinite in value. |

September 18th
The wiring harness was completed by Maico and Travis today (see pics) and was installed into the target module. During installation the bracket
went on with ease. The junction box appeared to be hung up on something but did engage eventually. The plug for the collimator is not quite long enough |
Monday, September 23, 2013, 13:55, David Wang, South Hot-Cell, Standard Operation, TM3, , window circuit leak check
|
This morning, Bevan and I leak checked window circuit on TM3 at SHC after containment box was installed. It took about 20minutes to pump down the circuit
to 0.0xE-9atm.cc/sec. Bevan sprayed helium on both VCR joints and a final splash. No response had been found on leak detector. |

September 20th
Today was a trying day. When attempting to make the water line connections for the window the VCR seal fell off several times. Each time this
happens the seal becomes stuck at the bottom of the containment box. While trying to replace the seal the nut slipped down the line to the bottom of |
Tuesday, September 24, 2013, 08:15, Travis Cave, South Hot-Cell, Standard Operation, TM3, no target, Electrical check
|
Electrical check was done on TM#3 yesterday and again the coil lines to the 60kV common and the coil line to each other failed, as in they had a resistance.
Everything else passed as showing an infinite value, all meggering was done at 1000V unless noted other wise. See attached PDF for details. |

The containment box cover has had all the bolts installed and all bolts were checked with a mirror. TM3 has been raised and is ready for the last
electrical test before it goes to the conditioning station. |
