TM#1 with Nb#6 is now in the conditioning station. The fields of the module at the south cell was 15.8mSv/hr. The move was uneventful. Don Dale was present for the move locking out parts of the code so only one movement of the crane could be done at a time.

TM#1 with Nb#6 from the conditioning station to the west target station, move was uneventful. Mike LaRoss was there today for move in place of Don Dale working the PLC.

 A HV test was complete on TM1 with Friedhelm, David, and Myself. The module behaved as it has in other tests. The vacuum achieved was 1.6 x 10^-6 in the diagnostics box, 2.3 x 10^-6 in the containment box, and 8.6 x 10^-7 in the service cap. Maximum voltage without continuous sparking achieved was 27kV. Current was unstable varrying from 40 to 300 uA. This voltage was held for 10 minutes. 

 The pumping down on TM1 and conditioning station is fine over the weed end. The PNG 1(containment box) is 2.4xe-6 Torr, the IG1 (top service cap) is 9.0 xE-7 Torr, and the IG4 is 1.9xE-6Torr (diagnostic box). At this pressure, I connected the leak detector to the system and applied 80psi helium to the heat shield circuit. The leak rate and base pressure on leak detector are 0.0xE-9 Atm.cc/sec and 0.0xE-4Torr. There is no any response on leak detector during 4mins helium applying time. So the heat shield and Nb5 target water circuit is completely leak tight.

 I moved 5 shielding blocks from ITE to ITW .  I checked  all ITW water signals strength and frequency in electrical room, and everything looks fine.The ventilation system is set up for ITW. MAA is locked. ITW is ready for taking proton beam.

Ta#38 has been placed into the south hot cell. Swipes of the tool port were taken there was a count of 600 on the floor and 150 on the walls and top. 

 TM1 has been moved from ITW to the SHC. The move did encounter some issues, one of the railings for preventing people from falling into the MAA was hit with the containment box. This caused the module to rotate. The module rotated ~90 degrees before the problem was noticed. The module was backed off from the post once noticed but had already freely rotated. The box was inspected with the cameras prior to being inserted into the SHC. No damage was detected. The error came as a result of over confidence. It did appear it was going to be hit but as the module moved closer I believed that there would be clearance. The angle of the camera has caused the module to appear it was going to hit thing before in the past but it actually (once the module was closer to the object) had several feet of clearance. This is not a mistake I will make again.

Chad Fisher, Grant Minor, and Don Jackson, have been alerted about this. Chad will complete another visual inspection in the hot cell. David will take swipes of the pole to ensure there is no contamination. 

I disconnected TM1 in ITW yesterday morning.The general radioactive level in ITW over the TM top (300mm) is about 350 usv/hr. contacting level on TP1 and TP2 are 1.0-1.2 msv/hr. I took 0.22 msv dose .The module is moved to

south hot cell later and a shielding plug is put back to ITW. Everything is fine.

Nb#6 was removed from TM1...it looked very clean.

Ta#38 was installed onto TM1...fit well.

Isaac Earle did this change with supervision in an effort to cross train.

TM1 containment box was checked for damage from the "bump" it got during yesterday's move. There was new scratches on the shutter side panel. Picture to follow.

The front containment box panel was "difficult" to remove...it required a good pull to get off.

Chad and I did a leak check on heat shield circuit after target is installed on TM1.The leak detector pumping down is smooth. The base leak rate is 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec. The base pressure is 0.0xE-4torr. Chad checked helium flow downstairs and sprayed helium to each joints for 2 seconds.The first joints is good and there is no any response on leak detector.we double checked it again and got the same result. On the second joint, Chad sprayed helium 2second. After 15 second of spraying,the leak detector got a response which climbed to 3.2xE-8 atm.cc/sec max,and back to 2.5 XE-8 atm.cc/sec. Chad tried to tighten the fitting. During his tight, the leak rate response to 7.5x E-8 atm.cc/sec momentarily. After the tightening ,the leak rate back to 0.0x E-9atm.cc/sec whic is the base.So we sprayed the helium to the joint again.This time ,there is no any response on leak detector. We checked this joint  again and got the same result which is no response. Finally, Chad flush the helium around the target for 10 second ,and during 45 sec observation time there is no any response on leak detector. I would say the heat shield circuit is leak tight so far. I will do a helium pressure test on it once the TM1 is moved the CS.

TM1 was moved from SHC to the TCS. The mode took roughly 1 hour. During the move the north east corner of the containment box caught slightly on the flange of the vacuum vessel and then slipped off. The contact was minimal but should none the less be noted. After sliding off of the flange the module did not crash into the other sides of the vacuum vessel, this is why I believe the contact was minimal. It should be noted that the corner of concern is the one that is most difficult to see.

I connected vacuum system to TM1 and conditioning station and started two turbo pumps yesterday. The pumping an d vacuum readings  are verg good so far(all below 5xE-6 torr). Helium pressure test on heat shield circuit will be fulfilled next week.

Megger check values were low but still within operational range.

Megger checks were exceptionally high (good).  Readings taken less than 2 hours after reading low values from end of run on Nb#6.  Tests on Ta38 will be repeated at conditioning station later.

Electrical check of TM#1 with Ta#38 at the conditioning station under vacuum. See attached file for details.

Connected leak detector to TM1 and CS vacuum system. The vacuum readings on TM1 and CS:PNG1 1.3 xE-6 Torr, IG1 4.7xE-7torr, IG4(diagnostic box)1.5xE-6 Torr. Leak detector base pressure:0.0xE-4 torr, base leak rate: 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec. Applied 80 psi helium to heat shield circuit for 5 mins . There is no response on leak detector. The heat shield circuit is leak tight.

TM#1 with Ta#38 moved from the conditioning station to the west target station. Move went well.

 We moved TM1 to ITW today, I connected TM1 to ITW, and started all turbo pumps this afternoon. TP4s is very difficult to bring to 38 KRMP now. I have to use soft start model and tried twice to get this pump started (1.5 hours). This pump always had a difficult start time during the past 2-3 runs. I talked with Friedhelm and we think it should be replaced after this run. I will issue an e-fault on this pump and try to get a new pump from vacuum group. It will take 2 hours to change this pump. I could do this job with another person help. Or, vacuum group could do it. Don can schedule a time for this job before next run. Anyway, it should work fine for this run.  The water interlock check related to TM1 is done. I will do the rest before blocks on. All TM1 water signals are strong and good. All vacuum gauge readings are good so far(below5.0xe-5 torr).

I disconnected TM1 in ITW.  Heat shield line has been purged .

TM#1 with Ta#38 has been moved from the west target station to the south hot cell, no problems with the move.
