Subject:	NBI Upgrade Weekly Status 6/3/11

Mike

NBI Upgrade:  Chit resolution continues on the three NBI Peer Review chits. Two have been 
resolved. WAF revisions are in progress or complete. Job status was held with all jobs reporting 
and no new issues. Updates on the VV reinforcements continue including analysis for Bay K and 
L. Evaluation of in house CFC material for armor tiles took place last week. CFC will be 
incorporated into overlap areas on the armor as planned. Efforts on drawings continue. 
Preparations continue for the FDR dry run meetings and the FDR later this month.

NBI Refurbishment:  Machining of the new full energy ion dump plate continues in the shop. 
Additional materials were ordered for the calorimeter upgrade parts fabrication required to 
update the calorimeter to the double bellows design. Refurbishment activities were curtailed due 
to operations support for NSTX start up activities and the rad shipment last week. Plans are 
underway to clear the CS high bay area by moving some equipment into the TFTR Test Cell. 
After these logistics activities are complete, refurbishment activities will resume in earnest. HP 
coverage and periodic maintenance continues as needed to support access to the Test Cell.


Regards,

Tim
