Maintenance & Obsolescence

  • Laurent Nadolski (Synchrotron SOLEIL)

Description

All accelerators have reliability expectations. A data driven approach to maintenance has become a necessity as new accelerators increase in size and complexity. This can become more complex over the lifecycle of accelerator facilities when upgrades mix new and old components.
• What approaches work best for maintaining high reliability your facility?
• Have these approaches been shown to improve reliability and availability?
• How do you handle obsolescence issues?
• What are biggest struggles with optimizing maintenance activities and scheduling repairs?
• Are there different approaches for new facilities vs new or upgraded facilities?

    Maintenance & Obsolesence
    Oral

    Construction, commissioning and validation of the Linear IFMIF Prototype Accelerator (LIPAc) are carried out in the framework of the IFMIF/EVEDA project. The LIPAc in its current configuration operates with D+ and consists of a 100 keV injector, a 5 MeV RFQ accelerator, a medium and high energy beam transport lines and a beam dump. In its final configuration it will include a Half-Wave...

    Maintenance & Obsolesence
    Oral

    The Canadian Light Source (CLS), a 3rd generation light source operates since 2004 and is comprised of a 250 MeV Linac dating from 1964, a booster and a Storage ring built in 2003 and having seen completion of its last beamline(BL), #22, in 2019. For many years focus on BLs has put the maintenance of the machine in a dire position. With the completion of the last BL the Machine division can...
