Subject: T1 collimator valve solenoid coil replaced again 

On 23rd October we restarted the T1 and T2 water packages after the mini shutdown and after the site power outage. The rotary collimator was reporting no water flow and it was assumed the valve coil (B1A:T1:SVCOL) had failed again. T1 water package was uncovered the next day (24th) and we went to change the coil. Water flow was returned to the collimator and T1 water package was re-covered.

During the replacement, one of the nearby pressure sensor wires accidentally made contact with a nearby paddle wheel sensor shorting out the output connectors and making the flow read between 8 to 1999 GPM. The offending wire was observed and removed after going back down to have a closer look.

It is not believed the coil failed from the site power outage on the 19th. The water packages had been left off since the beginning of the mini shutdown (2nd of October?).
