replace T85 surge arrestors

No machine impact (In Progress)Tuesday, August 6th replace T87 surge arrestorsNo beam during work 8-10 hoursAfter replacement, test both T85 and T87

There will be a 20 minute MI conventional power outage to remove the

We have removed all of the antiproton equipment, which comes to over 1,400 feet of beamline components.Electron cooling removalStochastic Cooling tanks removal from the 200 and 100 tunnel locations Decommissioned

the two Recycler Pbar

injection and extraction lines (~1,000

ft.

  of beam line

components).

The A150 Beam line was decommissioned (~800 ft. of beam line)

More than

~1.3 Million feet

of cable have been pulled to support the new transfer lines and

instrumentation upgrades.

~500,000

feet was a complete  replacement of the Recycler BPM

system

~700,000 feet of new cabling for instrument cabling

IPM’s, Toroid's, DCCT’s, Multiwires, Schottkies,

~10,000 ft. of RF cabling

~10,000 ft. of 500 MCM cable

~12,000 ft. of 350 MCM cable~25,000 ft. of correction element cables ~6,000 ft. of radiation damage cable

~

25,000 ft. of kicker system cables

We have installed a new transfer

lines; a new Injection line into the Recycler and a new transfer line out of the Recycler Ring into the Main Injector

New injection line spans from the MI-8 line Q848 location to the Recycler Q104 location

New extraction line spans from Recycler Q230 to Q308 in the MISlide11

Approximately 590 tons of material has been moved~ 40 Tons of lead blankets were installed to reduce the radiation levels to reasonable levels such that work can be completed (~25 tons in the MI30 straight section, ~5 tons in the new injection line and ~10 tons in various other locations around the ring.Installed 3 shielding walls ( 2 for MI-31 stub and 1 at the 304 tunnel location ~ 20 tons each)

~

490

Tons of magnets moved

3

ILAM we moved/relocated

6 3Q120 magnets were removed from the A150 line reworked and reinstalled in the NuMI beam line to replace existing magnets

1 MI wide aperture Quad was relocated

1 new Wide aperture C Magnet was installed in the MI abort line

~40 20 inch Quads were removed from the RR30 Cooling insert

3 ADCW were installed ( main vertical bend Magnets)

Entire Ecool Cooling section and return line were removed

18 20 inch Quads were installed in the RR 30 section

10 20 inch Quads were installed in the new RR extraction line

20 20 inch Quads were relocated/installed in the RR injection line

Removed/installed/relocated a total of 14 cavities

2 old RR RF cavities/6 MI coalescing cavity/ 2 MI studies cavities/ 2 new MI RF cavities and 2 new RR cavities

~30 tons of stands and misc. parts/components were removed and or installedSlide12

Keeping true the Recycler name, we are reusing ~70 percent of the instrumentation, ~30 percent of the vacuum components ~85 percent of the magnetsA completely new 53 MHz RF cavity system was installed into the Recycler

2 New RF cavities were installed a place holder for a third

Relocated

and

repurposed

the 3 existing

Recycler wideband RF cavities into a damper system

.

A

complete rework of the Recycler Abort system to allow full turn proton abort along with gap

clearing.

5 Gap clearing kicker and 2 new Full turn kickers were relocated from the Main Injector to the Recycler

The RR30 straight section was rework from a cooling lattice back to a standard FODO

lattice

~45 Recycler 20 inch quads were removed

~900 feet of beam pipe was removed and reworked for the new Lattice configuration

New insert was prepped for 2.5 MHz RF cavity system to be installed in the Recycler 305-306 region.

Relocated radiation sensitive equipment from the MI/RR 30 straight section to minimize future radiation dose to equipment and Technicians.

MI and RR Coasting Beam safety system

MI and RR DCCT’s

RR schotkies

Installed 2 new 53 MHz in the MI

Relocated 4 RF cavities to make roomSlide13
