On Tuesday, January 24th UCx#18 was removed from TM2 and Ta febiad dummy installed. I encountered the same issue mounting the new target as last time. Was able to determine that the issue is the routing of the waterlines to the right-hand (as viewed from the operator) high current tube heater. The lines interfer the the target mounting plate (bottom right hand corner).

TM#2 with Ta#49 has had its electrical check and was moved to the conditioning station. see the attached pdf for the electrical check details.

The electrical check has been edited to reflect that well the original has been just not the PDF.

Ta#49 has been removed from the south hot cell and placed in the storage vault. It is in pail 146 and in spot 6A.

Entry  Friday, October 21, 2016, 15:10, Anders Mjos, South Hot-Cell, Repair, TM2, Ta#49, Stuck TGHT clamp bolt removal 

During target removal on Wednesday October 12th, the left target heater conductor bolt (ITD0058) could not be removed. The bolt was found to be stuck in the threads (keensert) of the TGHT conductor block (ITA0583). In the process of attempting to remove the bolt, the conductor insulator (ITD0054) cracked (ref assy ITD0052). To allow increased torque to be applied and support the conductor block, a clamping jig (ITD0612) was designed and fabricated. The jig was assembled and it's function tested on the ISAC Test Stand on Friday 14th. On Monday 17th the bolt could be removed using the clamping jig and a socket wrench with an extended handle.

The threads on the removed bolt was damaged. A new set of bolts were therefore prepared and a tap was run through the keensert to restore the threads. The threads in the conductor block was tested and found to be OK using a new bolt.

The spent target could now be removed. Unfortunately the right manipulator failed during installation of a new conductor insulator, which forced the repair of the insulator and installation of the new target (SiC#35) to be postponed until the manipulator can be repaired.

Entry  Friday, May 20, 2016, 08:13, David Wang, Conditioning Station, Standard Operation, TM2, Ta#48, I switched off TCS and TM2 water system 

Disconnected  TM2 at TCS(vacuum system still on). Purged all TM2 water lines for helium pressure test.

Entry  Friday, May 20, 2016, 10:38, David Wang, Conditioning Station, Standard Operation, TM2, Ta#48, Helium pressure test on TM2 with new Lp Ta target 

LD base LR: 0.0 X E-9. Base pressure:0.0 X E-4. 70 psi helium. 5 minutes each circuit.

window 0.0X E-9  
HS 0.0X E-9  
EE 0.0X E-9  
Ta+ 0.0X E-9  
Ta- 0.0X E-9  
coil1 R-U 0.0X E-9  
Coil2 P-Q 5.0X E-9  
Tube- 5.1X E-9  
Tube+ 1.1X E-8  
MSP 3.5X E-9  

The bigger leak found on MSP before was gone. Leak rate are smaller on all circuits  comparing to before. 

The leak rate on 1 hour total lines test at 70 psi is better also which is 6.6 XE-8 atm.cc/sec this time. 

Entry  Tuesday, May 24, 2016, 10:39, David Wang, Conditioning Station, Standard Operation, TM2, Ta#48, TM2 and TCS turbo-pumps have been switched off this morning.
