Critical-path Torus Re-coat Project
Project Scope:
- Provide a temporary ventilation system to support this critical-path torus re-coat project.
- Design to support grit blasting, application of the new coating system, and accelerated curing to ensure critical-path performance.
- Design, fabricate/procure system components, supervise installation, and provide ongoing engineering support for the coating operations.
Description:
- Maintained a sufficient air-exchange rate within the torus to minimize the airborne DAC levels.
- Maintained the torus volume at a lower negative pressure relative to the torus room and the floors above.
- Generated a sufficient capture velocity across the manway access to minimize the migration of contamination across that boundary.
- Controlled temperature and humidity to support the coating application and minimize the cure time.
- All system objectives were achieved for this critical-path project with no malfunctions or time lost.
