7. Residual dose rate around target station I air concrete air iron Handling Area Restricted area („Sperrbereich“) Controlled area („Kontrollbereich“) Monitored area („Überwachungsbereich“) max. 0.5 µSv/h BEAM Input parameters: 5e12p/s, irradiation time: 3.16E7 s Determination of residual dose rate important for operation permission!

8. Transport concept in the pbar building Transport container pulls out component (1) Moves to the shaft (2) Carrying frame lifts up the component (3) Shielding flask is closed (4)

10. Bring the target out of the target station Top view, beam from left to right. Inner part of target station is always shielded

11. Target station and transport container in tunnel Process sequence: Transport container is placed in front of target station. Door of target station and transport container are opened. Component is gripped by a quick coupling system. Trolley moves the component via rail system into the transport container. Doors are closed.
