|
The following maintenance tasks were performed during mini-shutdown of 2022 with the goal of resolving the Fault 14966 (target water flow rate low).
Replace the o-ring, paddle wheel, and shaft on the following flow rate sensors:
Q1 (FGTGT)
Q2
Q4
Replace the demineralizing flow metering valve with a new needle valve (the old one was flaky and appeared |
Friday, September 23, 2022, 10:51, Matthew Gareau, Standard Operation, Target 2, Target, Target T2-MK2 moved to storage pit 
|
The T2-MK2 target was transported from the east hot cell to the storage pit at position 3.
As was noted in the past, position 3 is difficult to align. The flask alignment pins prevent the flask from positioning in the correct location,
and it is required to have the flask just above the pins to ensure that the pins did not restrict the flask movement. |

On Aug. 18, 2022, Operations informed RH group that an alarm activated for the full status of the MHESA B1 RCR1 Lab holding tank. Additionally another
alarm was reported in the RH control room regarding the RH sump full (Southwest Meson Hall Extension - Remote Handling area). However, there is an alarm
signal for the RH sump that was seen as OK at the MHESA Lab HMI. |

|
Today myself and Adam Newsome started the leak detection steps for a target exchange and notice that the Helium line was not connected/broken from inside
the hotcell.
A new line will need to be installed and the line attached to the helium wand. |
