Tm3 has been moved  from SHC to silo. the move is smooth.

TM3 was moved from silo to SHC with no target. Move successful.

An electrical check and leak check had been done after new target UCx47 was installed on TM3 in SHC. see attachment pls.

TM3 was moved from SHC to TCS with UCx#47. The move was smooth.

Handover from TPO and inspection

• Completed
• Some modification to the center Inner-Outer conductor had to be made (hole enlarged as tab was slightly short)

Target Insertion:

• Successful 

Target Mounting:

•  Upon fully seating UC#47 on service tray locating pins, the gas line VCR gasket came off 
  • Operator doesn't have line-of-sight to this area, so there has to be healthy clearance (Foreshadowing) 
  • Gas line VCR gasket reinstalled using manipulators  

• 2nd seating of UC#47 on service tray locating pins, the gas line VCR gasket came off again
  • Some alignment interference with the gas line coupling is the cause of the gasket falling off during placement (photo attached)
  • Gas line on service tray was loosened, raised to highest position and fastened (Photo attached)
  • Failed to re-install VCR gasket (Plastic separated from gasket material)
• Target removed from Hot cell to reinstall gaskets and make modifications to the gas-line coupling
  • Gas line coil plastically deformed to give less of a spring action so the coupling can stay down under friction until it is time to couple
  • Target carefully inserted into hot cell without disturbing spring/friction of gas-line coupling. 
    • This had to be repeated several times. Once for the waterline gaskets coming off, and a few other times to insert the target/tray without disturbing sprung coupling
• Target mounted without issue after the above steps successfully 

Gas and Water Services:

• VCR connections coupled 
• Leak test passed
  • leak test faster today because module had been left in silo for a long time to dry out. 
• Gas line no-longer needed, so was not checked

Electrical Services:

• Conductor bolts installed
• All bolts (including mounting bolts) checked for fit with mirror
• Coil conductor bolts torqued to at least 130inch-lbs 
• Electrical test completed 

Containment box panel reinstalled 

Cleared area around module for craning out. 

TM3 with new target UCx#47 was connected in ITE right after be moved from TCS. 

 5 Shielding Blocks have been transferred from ITW to ITE. MAA is secured after moving.

ITE primary and secondary vacuum vessel leak check for 2025 shut down have been done. No leak.  The TM3 waterlines helium pressure test will be done at TCS when module is there.

TM3 water lines helium pressure test  are done. 70 psi helium 3 minutes to each line( except HS which has no target on it ) . leak detector base leak rate :0.0Xe-9 atm.cc/sec. No leak on all tested water lines.Helium were purged out after test. and 60 psi nitrogen were filled in lines for storage. 

 TM3 with spent target UCx#47 was disconnected in ITE and will be moved to SHC.

TM3 UCx#47 after operation electrical check  is done at SHC. The result is normal. See attachment.

A complete TM3 electrical check at TCS under good vacuum has been done. Pin 14 to 60KV only has 8K ohm on ohmmeter check , and it's about 2Kohm @250V Megga. It's low in resistivity. The pin 14 is for thermocouples only so no big concern.  The rest things are good. See attachments.

Tm3 has been moved  from TCS to silo. The move is successful.

TM2 has been moved to TCS and under good vacuum. TP1/2 work fine.  Electrical check: A to PQ still dead short. B to C @250V 3.8M which is ok still . We knew these two things before. Other things are good. Vacuum: air to vacuum seals on TM2 service cap are good. Helium pressure test on all water lines are good. HS line no target so can't be tested. But We did helium pressure test on each target change so it's fine.

TM#2 has been moved from the north west silo to the south hot cell. The module has a field of about 3.1mSv/hr when it was lowered into the hot cell.

TM2 is now in the hot cell with the containment box off for inspection and eventual blank off off the water blocks.

Upon initail inspection the status (fron a hot cell point of view) is:

-Water block jig is equipped/on

-There is a thermocouple line that will need to be removed

-TM2 requires a new front containment box cover - already manufactured and waiting for installation

The old thermocouple wire has been sucessfully removed from the module.

Thanks Bevan, Travis and David.

Bevan and I installed 2 turbo pumps on TM2. The o- ring flanges on TM2 had been cleaned before the installation.

 Don Jackson and Myself completed started an electrical test on TM2. All lines passed the with OL to ground. When testing in between the lines individually there were several lines that read other than OL. It was decided to abandon the testing as there were too many "failures". The results are attached. The testing will be repeated in the conditioning station with vacuum. It is not expected that this will change anything as during a quick visual inspection it appears the lines are touching. Of note the water block jig was removed this morning by Chad.

 TM2 was moved by myself and David from the SHC to the TCS. Move went well. Curiously the fields on the module were measured higher than the previous measurement (now ~5.8mSv/hour) .

 The turbo pumps have been started on TM2 and the conditioning station.
