3. Overview 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL, LNGS3 In April 2008, studies were started to define the Clean Room requirements and develop Radon abatement strategies. In addition to reviewing requirements imposed by assembly and operation scenarios, PSA storage in the Clean Room area was also studied. Clean Room design and Radon abatement were eventually approached as separate problems each with unique requirements. A general Clean Room specification was developed, and Radon abatement was expanded into three competing strategies

4. Crystal Assembly Layout 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL, LNGS4 Starting point is the layout from Silvio Morganti’s assembly scenario shown in the ‘zeropuntquindici’ document. Crystal and Tower assembly is done under N2 glove boxes. During this time, the Cryostat is being assembled and tested, and the Cryostat room is open to outside air at several times for loading assemblies and major components

5. Tower Integration Layout 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL, LNGS5 Detector assembly is also done under N2 glove box, then moved into the Cryostat room for mounting to the Cryostat. Early plans were to do this in open air with exposure limited by time.

6. PSA Layout studies-3 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL6 In mid April 2008, a series of studies was conducted to attempt to accommodate the desire to place the place the Permanent Storage Area (PSA) in or near the CUORE clean room assembly area. The intent was to evaluate the feasibility of placing the PSA in a clean room/Radon- free environment, if possible. With discussion, an additional requirement evolved to keep the PSA and assembly areas separate to avoid traffic and possible interference between Storage and Assembly operations.,

7. Typical PSA cabinet used in these layouts is based on a Type A, Series 400 Stainless Steel unit from Terra Universal. 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL7

11. Extended Clean Room layout with PSA cabinets. The cabinet arrangement is arbitrary and is only one of many studied. This layout includes a separate Gowning chamber and is consistent with the desire to keep PSA storage out of traffic areas during assembly operations. 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL11

14. Cat walk study and extended Clean Rooms Alternative PSA storage was considered in the Cuoricino clean room level and included the desire to transport crystals and sub assemblies safely from the Cuoricino deck to the Cuore deck with out the risk of using several stairs and level changes Early June, requirements for PSA storage in the Clean Room were ruled out, however an expanded Clean Room was approved as additional assembly space. 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL, LNGS14

29. As-built 09 April 2008 Cuore concrete support structure with jack screws in place Cuore site with elevator deck ready for installation 29 Robin Lafever CUORE Structure assembly sequence RIGHT NOW, the Cuore experimental area is under construction. Many construction details are still being designed, Including clean room and Radon mitigation strategies. Timing may well limit the options being considered for the installation of a Radon barrier and clean room modificatios.

30. Superimposing the CAD model illustrates how the build-up sequence has influenced the choices for an appropriate Radon barrier because of access and installation constraints TimingBuild-up sequence Support structure with major structural elements in place, including the elevator deck 30 Robin Lafever CUORE Structure assembly sequence

31. At this point, the only options for installing a Radon barrier will be limited to the INSIDE surfaces of the clean room. 31 Robin Lafever CUORE Structure assembly sequence

32. 32 Hut carpentry will probably precede clean room installation, But access to the clean room exterior is clearly restricted

33. TimingClean Room idealized The electronics bay currently has no requirement for either particle count or Radon exclusion, but, further restrict access to the clean room roof. 33 Robin Lafever CUORE Structure assembly sequence

34. TimingClean Room idealized The current clean room geometry is shown here as an ‘ideal’ layout with no interfering structure around it. Assuming a Radon barrier is applied to the outer surfaces of the clean room, this is the time to do it. However, this is not a real possibility. Therefore, we must consider methods for installing a barrier before the clean room construction. Or, modifying the clean room panels such that they ARE the Radon barrier. 34 Robin Lafever CUORE Structure assembly sequence

35. Radon-free strategies 9/18/2015Robin Lafever LBNL, LNGS35 Radon Box The ‘Radon Box’ is a welded membrane which includes all air-handling and ductwork. The concept is to conserve and reuse Radon-free air and is sensitive to permeability and leaks. In conflict with minimum room air changes (5/hr) required for Clean Room operation. To realize this concept in our application requires reducing the Radon- free volumes into small zones and May require negotiated safety equipment and waivers. It will be expensive. All N2 Assumes all work is done under N2 with NO radon-free air supply. Preferred scenarios use soft enclosures and glove enclosures. Extreme scenarios involve working in N2 atmosphere with Oxygen masks Local Radon-free zones Uses temporary enclosures around work area supplied with Radon-free air. Depends on high flush rate in small volumes. Less sensitive to leaks and permeation. More sensitive to air exchange rates
