TM#4 was moved to the conditioning station from the south hot cell. The module was moved with out the containment box.

Leak detector is connected to ITW TP4. LD Base leak rate 0.0XE-09 atm.cc/sec. Helium line is connected to existing window leak check 1/8 " copper tube. Applied 18psi helium for 1 minute. No response on LD. The window seal is good on ITW vacuum vessel.

Yesterday Aaron, Isaac and Anders inspected the EZL connection from the service chase to the optics tray using the goose neck camera in SHC. No issues or shorts could be identified. Containment box was not removed. Today David and Anders opened up two panels on the service cap and inspected the EZL connection. No issues or shorts could be identified. Photos available on DocuShare. Next step will likely be to remove the containment box and inspect the optics tray.

The containment box was removed yesterday. One of the main insulators on the source tray had cracked at the rear close to the bolt to the source tray mounting plate (see photos using link above)

Troubleshooting continued this morning with disconnection of the optics tray from the module. The banana plug copper tube connection was removed form the optics tray side. With the connection removed, the measurement showed open line on top of the module indicating that the problem is on the optics tray

Anders and I leak checked new 2A2 window seal on ITW side. Leak detector was connected  to ITW TP4.  Base  leak rate 0.0Xe-9 atm.cc/sec. base pressure 0.0xe-4 torr.  Sprayed 15-20 psi directly underneath 2A2 window by using exist 2a2 window leak check copper tube. The leak detector got response in 5 seconds when helium was applied. the leak rate was 5xe-6 atm.cc/sec. Once the helium source was closed, the leak rate dropped quickly back to base level. To confirm the leak is at window , I sprayed 15 psi helium around all top flange seals of TM and entrance module.  There was no direct response during the spray( about 1.5- 2 minutes). There was a weak slow up response (up to 1.0 xe-7 atm.cc/sec) which was started after 1.5 minutes of spray. The weak response is cause by helium drift in my view.   Our conclusion is the 2A2 window seal on ITW side is not perfectly sealed.  The elak we saw on LD is ture , and it is located on window.  The station will be vented soon for shielding plug moving back. .

 The results of yesterdays electrical check of TM#4 with no target attached. See the attached PDF for details.

 Electrical check of TM#4 with SiC#37 attached post beam. A short was found between the Einzel Lens and Chassis. See attached PDF for details.

 TM#4 with SiC#37 has been moved from the East Target Station to the South Hot cell.

Yesterday we installed the 2a2 window, the drive screw was torqued until 70 ft-lbs and we stopped, the yoke is not fully closed to its hard stop with roughly 7/8" to 3/4" still to go. Similar to identical conditions to 2a3 beamline window install, see https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/RH-ISAC/647 for that install. Otherwise clamp looks centered and installed correctly.

Concerns with the cooling lines for the window WRT to the base of the shielding plug: There is no jog bend indicated on drawings for the transition of the window cooling lines from beamline center to the corner of the shield plug penetration. See photo for cooling line position on initial removal of shielding plug. It was decided to not add a jog for the shield plug and to carefully reinsert it being mindful of the cooling lines.  The shielding plug has a chamfer on the corner to allow the cooling lines to be routed to the top.

A new beam tube cradle is being manufactured where the old one will removed and the new one swapped with the beam tube in situ. Both sides of the window still need to be leak checked.

Vacuumed out remainder of debris from the wall penetration, removed cradle and checked condition. Down stream support bracket sees advanced stages of material loss (OBO 20-30% loss). See attached photos.

RPG reports that the removed beam tube has 15k CPM on the interior of the beam tube.

Tank flange was cleaned as per 2009 repair report, looks OK. Video capture of flange inspection attached as .zip file.

.03" shim was inserted into the clamp indexing block.

2A2 window has been removed from ITW and beamlines has removed the beamtube from the penetration. The penetration has been sealed with plastic sheeting and duct tape to maintain the ventilation depression between the 2A tunnel and the Target Pit.

Window is currently stored in a lead flask in the target hall. Window fields are 26 mSv/h OC, 1.2 mSv/h at .5m. There is a 10 uSv/h field outside the flask with the window inside it.

Clamp is currently sitting bagged in ITW Station Pit, it is quite corroded.

Tank flange was video inspected but still needs to be cleaned, currently there is a slip on dust cover over the flange to protect it.

Work will resume after the nuclear ventilation comissioning is completed.

 The west entrance module has been moved from the west target station to the silo.

ITW entrance module has been disconnected.  All connections are labelled before or during disconnection. The 24VDC electrical plug on ITW TP1S is broken . It will be replaced with a new plug. The lift yoke is installed onto module without difficulty.   

 Ta#55 has been moved from the south hot cell to the spent target vault. It was 30.4mSv/hr upon removal from the hotcell, placed in pail #161 and put in spot 7A of the vault.

 TM#2 has been moved from the south hot cell to the south west silo.

 TM#2 with Ta#55 has been moved from the west target station to the south hot cell.

I asked MCR to switch off ITW TP3,4 TP1s,2s this morning.

ITH MP1 is replaced today with a new style pump.The new pump is 0.75 inch higher than  old pump on inlet and exhaust so a new solid inlet adapter  (KF50-25) has to been used. For future secondary pump ITH MP1S replacement, we need a new adapter 0.75 inches shorter as well.   The new pumps is started . Everything works fine. Old pumps is drained , bagged, and stored in TH B2 level. All radioactive garbage produced during the job are bagged , tagged, and stored in TH as well.

 All targets in the ISAC Spent Target Vault have been either assayed and had field measurement done on them or just measurement if to hot to assay.

Two small water leaks have been found on ITW High active water system. One is from an unused 1/4" copper valve stem. another is on supply 1.5" supply line valve body top sealing. Both of them are seeping water from seal. 1/4" copper valve will be replaced with a new one. 1.5" supply line valve will be replaced by an old valve with all new seals. I have all spare parts in hand.  At present, water supply to ITW are stooped to reduce leak rate. Two aluminum flat tray are put underneath leak valves to hold small amount leak water. Both leak will be fixed in April  mostly.
