 Tuesday, June 16, 2015, 14:28, chad fisher, South Hot-Cell, Repair, TM2, , TM2 Source Tray Installation/Water Block Sealing Surface Clean 
|
Today cleaning and polishing pads were inserted into the hot cell.
Module side waterblock jig installation was attempted however one of the locking tabs/latches (ITA2405?) came undone/fell off. Luckily, I had old, obsolete jigs in the hot cell so I was able to remove parts I needed from an old one and rebuild the current one.
Jig was installed on module to retain module side waterblocks.
Blank-off remove was commenced, however due to and large amount of water coming out of the line to have the blank-off removed work had to stop till the water evaporates.
Waterblock sealing surface cleaning and polishing will continue tomorrow.
Also, upon installing the jig a piece of fiberglass that had previously been manual inserted between two of the water lines (early to mid 2000's) fell out. |

Friday, June 12, 2015, 13:27, David Wang, South Hot-Cell, Standard Operation, , , TM2 new source tray has been remotely transferred from TH into SHC successfully.
|
TM2 new source tray has been remotely transferred into SHC successfully. The transfer table has been moved back to TH within 1 hour. I swiped the table and found about 150counts contamination. It is much better comparing to last time using since we removed this table out of SHC as quick as we can. The table will be cleaned with windex after Target Hall is surveyed. |

Friday, June 12, 2015, 07:49, chad fisher, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , New TM2 Source Tray Ground to HV Measurements
|
After bending and leak checking the new measurements from ground to HV on the TM2 source tray are:
Ground to C1+ 0.6645"
ground to heat shield 0.506
Window to mounting support plate - unchanged - over 0.80" |
|
Thursday, June 11, 2015, 13:43, Dan McDonald, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , Leak check following tweaking of cooling line gaps
|
Maico, Chad and I conducted a leak check on all affected lines following tweaking of cooling line gaps. All lines pumped down to a level of 10-9 torrliter/sec with no leaks detected with Helium. |
|
Thursday, June 11, 2015, 13:11, chad fisher, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , Measurements beyween ground Plane and HV TM2 Source tary
|
I've taken measurements between HV and ground circuit on TM2 source tray as instructed.
At their closest points:
Heat Sheild to Ground Electrode 0.445"
Ground Electrode to C1+ 0.281"
Window to Mounting Support Plate 0.858"

Wednesday, June 10, 2015, 16:49, Grant Minor, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , TM2 New Source Tray - *HOLD* on installation into Hot Cell until HV approval
|
Don Jackson brought to my attention some potential HV minimum spark gap issues with the source tray cooling lines. It appears:
- The gap between the Ground Electrode cooling lines (ground) and Heat Shield cooling lines (HV) does not meet the spec of 0.668" MIN called out on the print
- The gap between the Window cooling lines (ground) and the Mounting Support Plate cooling lines (HV) does not meet the spec of 0.668" MIN called out on the print.
A copy of the tube bending drawing is attached with the spec highlighted in green.
The 0.668" MIN gap spec came from a check I asked Mark Llagan to perform to find the minimum gap when he was preparing the model for the tube bending drawing. This gap was approved Jan 28th, 2015 by Friedhelm Ames on ECO-3587.
The source tray with the tubes bent as it is currently has been tested to 55 kV at the test stand by Anders, see:
https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/Test-Stand/447
I am away June 12th to June 24th on vacation inclusive. Isaac Earle is in charge of Remote Handling in my absence.
I am delegating Don Jackson responsible for resolving this TM2 HV issue, collecting and documenting the approval to proceed from the T/IS group leader with the source tray as-is, or to try to re-work the cooling lines and delay the project.
The source tray is NOT to be installed in the Hot Cell until this issue has been resolved.
Regards,
Grant

Wednesday, June 10, 2015, 13:17, David Wang, ITE, Standard Operation, TM1, , Target Hall Scheduled Activities April 07 - July 26 2015
|
Weekly update the schedule after some jobs have been finished in this week. |
|
Wednesday, June 10, 2015, 11:49, David Wang, ITE, Standard Operation, TM4, SiC #31, TM4 has been connected in ITE
|
Dan and I connected TM4 in ITE. At this stage, water is supplied to TM4 only. We checked the TM4 water signals from electrical room.They are good. The turbo-pumps will be started today once the roughing is done. |
|
Wednesday, June 10, 2015, 10:02, Travis Cave, ITE, Standard Operation, TM4, SiC#31, Module moved
|
TM#4 has been moved from the conditioning station to the east target station. |
|
Tuesday, June 09, 2015, 14:36, chad fisher, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , TM2 Source Tray Final Inspection
|
Final inspection took place with Pierre, Grant, Friedhelm and Anders present.
Two action items were raised:
1) check routing of 9 pin connector line
2) Check orientation of 9 pin water block
Chad pointed out concerns on clearances between a target and conductor block waterlines, possible optics tray alignment issues (that it had changed slightly from the initial alignment), and gap between steerer housing and ground electrode due to alignment. |
|
Tuesday, June 09, 2015, 09:49, chad fisher, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , TM2 Source Tray Final Alignment Check
|
Final alignment continued this morning.
Steerers have been aligned to 0.001 low, 0.000 left/right wrt master jig.
Optics tray required some adjustment as well and is now at:
Front 0.000 left/right, .001 high wrt master jig
Back 0.001 high, 0.000 left/right wrt master jig
Febiad coil conductor blocks have been reset with the master target jig as well...as they have been on and off during the test stand test.
A few components have been removed during the test stand test (such as feet required for tranfser jig) which I will now hunt down.
Otherwise i believe we are ready. |
|
Monday, June 08, 2015, 14:40, chad fisher, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , TM2 Source Tray Final Alignment Check
|
Final Alignment checks of the TM2 source tray took place today.
Mater Jig: Front - 0,0 Back - 0 left, right, .005 low
Tray: Front .001 High, .001 right Back - .001 right, .008 low
Which equals Tray: front .001 high, .001 right back: .001 right, .003 low in comparison to the master jig which is both within spec and within reason to pre-soldering numbers.
Steerer was out significantly and currently sits at .003 high, .002 right wrt. master jig.
More refinement on the steerer tomorrow and check on the optics tray as well. |
|
Thursday, June 04, 2015, 08:27, chad fisher, Assembly/Bench Test, Repair, TM2, , TM2 Source Tray C-seal removal and inspection
|
Source tray for TM2 has been moved to the alignment area by Dan and co.
This morning Dan removed the c-seals used during the test and he and I inspected the sealing surfaces to determine if they need to be cleaned...they do..trace indium was present on all blocks.
Surfaces will be cleaned before final alignment check.
|
|
Thursday, June 04, 2015, 07:44, Dan McDonald, Assembly/Bench Test, Development, TM2, , Movement of TM2 source tray to alignment area in ISAC
|
Once the test stand was vented and all lines purged Anders Mjos and myself jigged up the water blocks and proceeded to remove the TM4 SiC#31 target used during the testing, Einso lens and steerer. Once these components where removed we transferred the source tray to the transport plate and moved it to the alignment area. |
|
Wednesday, June 03, 2015, 13:51, David Wang, Conditioning Station, Standard Operation, TM4, SiC #31, TM4 is connected at CS
|
TM4 has been connected at CS. CS HV cover is installed.I made a pair of new cooling lines for TM window cooling at CS. The TM4 containment box window cooling line is connected to the HVC spare circuit now. I checked water flow visually, and it is good. The TM4 is ready for conditioning.See attachment for window cooling modification.
