  1864   Thursday, January 31, 2019, 14:16 Isaac EarleNorth Hot-CellDevelopment  NHC grounding approval

 Franco Mammarella was consulted regarding electrical grounding of the NHC design (RS103 of Document-131915).  After discussing the design, and having grounding inspected by Randy Boehm, Franco approved the design and advised that the grounding system should be inspected periodically.  This task has been added to the Remote Handling inspection index on an annual schedule.  A PDF copy of the e-mail correspondence with Franco is attached.

ITW water system maintenance is done. All working paddle wheels and coils are replaced. ITW water system polyurethane tubes are replaced as well. Two 3/8" leak small valves on return lines are replaced. 85 liters of tritium water are transferred from storage tank to B2 level holding tank. LALC water are refilled into S-tank. Restarted pump and checked system. Everything works fine now. No water leak has been found so far.

 The NHC right side monitor has been wired to display the signal from the in-cell camera.  This was tested using a snake camera on both of the CPC-4 connectors.

  1859   Friday, January 18, 2019, 10:26 Isaac EarleNorth Hot-CellDevelopment  NHC sealing improvements and repeat of RH test for LED lights

The following NHC development work was completed under WP I2019-01-09-4:

  • Location of RH feature on operator level LED lighting updated to match IRH1800 Rev B design
  • Remote Handling test of the LED fixtures was repeated using a 9' pole with hook attachment through the manipulator slave hatch from the Target Hall: both LED fixtures were removed and reinstalled successfully with relative ease
  • Tool port seal replaced to address an audible air leak: the 1/4" foam seal was removed and replaced with adhesive backed 5/8" wide hollow foam rubber seal (McMaster Carr PN: 93085K81). Prior to the change DPG4 was at 0.63"wc, after the change wit was 0.73"wc with all system variables constant.
  • NHC manipulator access block seal was replaced, likewise to address an audible air leak: the 1/4" foam seal was removed and replaced with adhesive backed 1/2" thick BunA-N rubber strip (McMaster Carr PN: 9023K85).  DPG4 was at 0.94"wc prior to the change, and 1.07"wc after with all system variables constant

  1857   Friday, January 11, 2019, 13:59 Isaac EarleSafe Module ParkingDevelopment  SMP motor selection decision

SMP drivetrain design work is currently underway.  Alejandro has selected a suitable 1200:1 reducer which will give a vessel rotation speed of 0.21rpm with a 1725rpm motor (deemed sufficiently close to the SHC rotation speed of 0.17rpm).  The reducer however is only rated for 0.33hp, and Allon's analysis recommended we use a motor of at least 0.4hp

 
From his calculations the expected power required to turn the loaded vessel is 0.2hp (see Document-161943, p3).  The higher figure of 0.4hp in his final recommendations comes from the power rating of a 40 tooth sprocket (the driver sprocket) with a No. 50 roller chain operating at 10rpm (the lowest speed shown on the table) - meaning this driver sprocket arrangement can handle up to 0.4hp.  We discussed this on the phone on January 4th and agreed that a 1/3hp motor could be used which will match the reducer Alejandro selected, and will supply sufficient power given that calculations indicate only 0.2hp is required.
 
Once the vessel is installed in the shield box a test will be performed to determine the actual torque (and power) required to turn the vessel.  If the value differs significantly from the calculated value the design will be revisited.

 The spent target in the south hot cell has been moved to the spent target vault. It was placed in pail 204 and placed in spot 6B. The pail is made of thicker steel and thus will not need to be repackaged later.  The ISAC spent target vault is full there is no more room for any more targets.

  1845   Thursday, January 03, 2019, 13:41 David WangCraneRepair  Target hall crane PLC issue.

Target hall crane did not work properly after power outage during Christmas time. The only movement could be operated is crane rotation. Power is supplied crane. The control board on N-S, E-W and up-down movement showed  F51 error code which is tripped limit.. All these clues pointed to a PLC control problem.  Don dale was asked for help. He used the crane control PLC program on an old computer  in RH control room reset the PLC system. Everything works fine after his reset.
