  1179   Wednesday, March 23, 2016, 11:32 David WangSouth Hot-CellRepairTM2 TM2 Helium spray leak check on GE and MSP lines at SHC

  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.

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

  1182   Tuesday, March 29, 2016, 08:38 David WangConditioning StationStandard OperationTM1 TM1 water lines helium pressure check at TCS

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:

 

 

Ta+   0.0 X E-9 atm.cc/sec 3minutes stabilizing
Ta-  0.0 X E-9 atm.cc/sec 3minutes stabilizing
Tube-  0.0 X E-9 atm.cc/sec 3minutes stabilizing
Tube+  0.0 X E-9 atm.cc/sec 3minutes stabilizing
MSP   0.0 X E-9 atm.cc/sec 3minutes stabilizing
EE   0.0X E-9 atm.cc/sec 3minutes stabilizing
HS  not tested without caps.  
Window  E-5 range,leak on stem as we knew before.  10seconds to E-5

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.

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.

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.

  1200   Friday, April 08, 2016, 08:13 Anders MjosITE/ITW CoolingMaintenance  High Active Water Resistivity

The high active water resistivity took a long time to recover after the upgrade to the water cooling circuit. The system needed about a month (from end February to end March) to recover to nominal values. See attached plot of archiver data.

TM1 has now been connected in ITW and the water resistivity remains > 8 MOhm cm, which should allow normal operation. However, the resin is suspected to be approaching end of life. Work is ongoing to get a new replacement resin tank.
