Results of the electrical check on TM#2 with no target after Chad cleaned out the bolt hole on the module where the target mounts.

 TM#2 with UC#23 has been moved from ITW to the south hot cell. The shield plug was also installed remotely as well.

 TM#3 with no target has been moved from the north east silo to the conditioning station.

 The following equipment has been connected to the building ground located in the Target Hall by the TCS using 1/2" flat bonding strap:

• NHC roof structure
• NHC/TCS partition wall
• NHC work table

The following equipment has been connected to the building ground by connecting to the work table inside the NHC using 1/2" flat bonding strap:

• Air and gas supply line mounting bracket inside NHC
• Receptacle box mounting bracket inside NHC
• Diagnostic signal box mounting bracket inside NHC

The resistance between the following locations and the copper grounding plate located at the base of the NHCSA north wall were measured.  The resistance of the wire used was 258.10mΩ, and has been subtracted from the following results.

Measurements taken in NHCSA:

• Control panel below viewing window (base plate of box): 4.67mΩ
• Oil window frame (bare metal drain valve): 55.34mΩ
• Left manipulator (ground plate near e-stop button): 73.46mΩ
• Right manipulator (ground plate near e-stop button): 202.58mΩ
• Air and gas supply line mounting bracket: 40.68mΩ
• Diagnostic connector box: 12.15mΩ
• Steel conduit for 110V supply to hot cell interior: 4.81mΩ

Measurements taken inside NHC:

• Work table: 4.51mΩ
• Pre-filter bolted to partition wall: 4.84mΩ
• Table hatch lid: open load
• Left manipulator thru tube: 515.8mΩ
• Right manipulator thru tube: 342.0mΩ
• Left manipulator (slave boot plate bolt): 885.9mΩ
• Right manipulator (slave boot plate bolt): 1444.0mΩ
• Grounding strap for air/gas plate: 4.84mΩ
• Outside of SHV connector on diagnostic signal box: 4.56mΩ
• Exterior of 110V electrical conduit: 3.88mΩ
• Male Staubli connector for 1st gas line: 53.7mΩ
• Welded stud for window cover panel: 6.06mΩ
• Grounding strap for partition wall: 4.39mΩ
• Roof structure (measured inside un-painted bolt hole): ~0mΩ
• Stainless steel module flange: ~0mΩ

Dedicated grounding will be added in the near future for the oil window frame and the manipulator thru-tubes.  Testing will then be repeated for those items.

Dec 18, 2018 update:

The oil window frame and both manipulators (where they bolt to the thru-tubes) were connected to the building ground using 1/2" flat bonding strap connected at the cold side of each piece of equipment, and running to the grounded copper sheet located in the NHC service area at floor level.  The connection is made inside the electrical racks located directly west of the NHC operator area on the cold side.  This work was done by Travis Cave in October 2018.

Mili-ohm testing for these items has not yet been repeated.

Jan 14, 2019 update:

Grounding was added from the metal plate near the e-stop button on the master arm of both manipulators.  The same 1/2" flat bonding strap was used which was tied into other bonding strap which runns to the grounded copper sheet in the NHCSA.

Mili-ohm testing was repeated for the following items:

• Oil window frame (bare metal drain valve):  13.6mΩ
• Left manipulator (ground plate near e-stop button):  16.1mΩ
• Right manipulator (ground plate near e-stop button):  16.5mΩ

 Installation of of operator-level lighting in the NHC was completed today according to drawing IRH1801.  2" x 2" Panduit was mounted to the wall on aluminum brackets to support the power cables.  These lights can be replaced remotely by unplugging the power cords using the manipulators, lifting the cable out of the Panduit with a hooked pole tool through the manipulator slave end removal roof hatch, lifting the light fixture off the support bracket with the pole tool, then installing a new fixture in the opposite order.  This RH procedure will be tested at a later date as part of NHC commissioning.

Testing was completed today on the NHC air and gas supply lines.  For each line a Staubli plug was installed on the fitting inside the hot cell, the line was charged with compressed air (50psi for gas lines #1, #2, and #3;  100psi for the air lines #4 and #5).  All connections inside and outside the cell were checked for leaks using Snoop including connections for the solenoid valves.  No leaks were found.  Correct operation of the solenoids was confirmed as well as correct plumbing (no lines crossed).

TM4 has been connected to ITE on Sep 04th. See attachment  for checklist.

TM4 TP2 could not be started  after module was connected back to ITE on Sep 04th. It was replaced with a new pump on Sep 05th. The new pump works fine.

 Targets SiC#34 , Ta#45,46,47,50 have been moved from the spent target vault to the mini vault.

 TM#4 with UC#24 has been moved from the conditioning station to the east target station.

I stopped TM4 and TCS vacuum system at TCS. TCS and TM4 is venting with argon now.

 Results of the electrical check with the spent Ta#56 attached, no target attached and the UC#24 attached. These test were performed on TM#4.

 Ta#56 has been moved from the south hot cell to the storage vault. It was placed in pail#169 and place in slot 2C of the vault. Also the vault is now full with 24 spent targets and can no longer accept any new targets. See the attached PDF for further details.

Chad and I leak checked TM4 HS line after UCx 24 is installed. No leak at 5xE-9atm.cc/sec.  Today, I did helium pressure test on HS line at TCS. No leak at 70 psi helium 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec.

TM4 has been connected to TCS. vacuum system and water system are started. Everything looks fine.

TM4 has been disconnected in ITE this morning. See attachment.

 TM#4 with Ta#56 has been moved from the east station to the south hot cell.

 Electrical Checks of the last two targets Ta#56 and UC#23

 Both the West Entrance and TM#2 with UC#23 have been moved back into their places in the west target station. The Entrance module move wasn't completely smooth as it did suffer a little bumpiness when the shield plug part was installed, I was lifted back out again and no visible damage was observed on the delicate items.

 The west entrance module has been moved from the west target station to the south hot cell, for a bellows replacement.
