New UCx target is installed on the module. 70psi helium,3 minutes. NO response on LD.  LD is pumped to bottom LR and LP during test.

I can not start the TCS pumps due to control page white out. Control group is working on this issue.

Control group fixed the white out problem. I started all turbo-pumps. The pumping down is good so far. The TM1 IG1 is broken. I will check it on next Monday. It could be a broken filament. Then, the filament will be replaced.

TM#1 has been moved from the conditioning station to the south hot cell, had UC#15 installed and then moved back to the conditioning station.

Electrical check of the target on TM#1, target in question is UC#15. See PDF for details.

On each water circuit in side the service cap, there are 4 soldering stems which two of them are inside blue nylon insulator and other two are connected to service tray. Each stem has two soldering spots. See attachment pictures for detail location. I sprayed 15 psi helium on each soldering spots on stems  for 20second on each circuit. I sprayed tons of helium inside each blue nylon.No any leak has been found during the check. The leak detector base leak rate:0.0 XE-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure:0.0X E-4 torr. The circuit which I checked are :TA+, Ta-, Tube+, Tube-, PQ (coil 2), RU( coil1), EE, MSP, GE. The HS and window circuit are opened at this moment so they can not be checked.

The results of the TM#1 electrical check from the 29th of March 2016

update the schedule according to changes.See attachment1, 2.

TM1 water lines helium pressure check at TCS is done. 70 psi helium was applied to water circuits. Leak detector base leak rate 0.0 x E-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure 0.0 x E-4 torr. The result shows as below:

The results is good so far as we know the window line is leak on stem in service cap. The HS will be tested later with target on.

 The service cap air to vacuum seals also have been checked. The PNG1 panel and side round panel close to shutter are leak. The o-rings on them need to be replaced.

On March 30th -2016, I doubled checked the air to vacuum seal on the TM1 service cap. The side round panel is leak free actually. The PNG1 panel is leak at the bottom side. Confirmed.

On march 31th-2016, The o-ring(1-1/ 2275) on TM1 PNG1 side panel has been replaced today. The o-ring slot and mating surfaces are cleaned, and new  o-ring is installed. The panel is put back to TM1 and all bolts are tightened.

See attachments.

TM#2 has been moved from the south hot cell to the south west silo and TM#1 was moved from the north east silo to the conditioning station. All done by 10AM.

TM1 and TCS vacuum system have been connected. All turbo-pumps are started. The pumping down is fine.

  Chad and I did the helium spray leak check on TM2 GE and MSP water lines at SHC this morning. We confirmed the GE leak on water blocks. We can not found the MSP leak by using the helium spray since its leak rate in TCS is much smaller than GE leak.  The leak check process are as below:
Leak detector are calibrated before the check.
GE lines : Base leak rate 0.0 X E-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure 0.0 XE-4 torr.
Chad sprayed 5 psi helium to GE lines soldering joints  for 5 second, no response on leak detector.
Chad sprayed 5 psi helium to GE lines water blocks( between blocks seal surface) for 5 seconds, Leak detector response to 8 XE-9 atm.cc/sec right away.
Chad sprayed  5 psi helium to GE lines soldering joints for 5 seconds again, No response on leak detector.
Chad sprayed 5 psi helium around the source tray and to vacuum duct for 5 seconds more, No response on leak detector.
MSP lines: Base leak rate 0.0X E-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure 0.0 X E-4 torr.  Chad did same thing as he did on GE lines. no response on LD. Chad repeated the test and prolonged the spray time to 10 seconds, No response.
The conclusion: It is pretty clear we have a leak on GE line water blocks seal.  MSP lines leak could not be found by helium spray in SHC since it is a small leak.
 

TM#2 was moved into the south hot cell by 08:30.

SiC#32 has been moved from the south hot cell to the spent target storage. See attached PDF for details.

TM2 vacuum system has been disconnected at TCS. Venting is in process now.

I stopped TM2 and TCS vacuum pumps. It will be vented and disconnected this afternoon for tomorrow  moving.   

TM2 has been helium pressure tested in ITW and TCS. They are both tested with 70psi helium, each circuit for 3minutes. 

The leak detector base leak rate: 0.0X E-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure 0.0 xE-4 torr  for both ITW and TCS. The test results are:

 2016-11-24: Checked again and added result into this elog.  No essential change has been found. MSP still has the biggest leak rate. David

Electrical checks of the TM#2 with the old SiC#32 and without the target. See attached PDFs.

SiC#32 has been open for inspection.

TM2 vacuum system has been connected at TCS. Started roughing pump. Everything is good so far.

I would like to post the spreadsheet of target hall schedule for beam schedule 130(Apr to Sep) first. The MS project of TH schedule for  beam schedule 130 is under construction, and will be posted later.
