GIF++ facility in EHN1
16.01.2013
Part Details
Gas area Hosts large part of the peripheral infrastructure and services (gas supplies and systems)
Preparation area
Area for detector preparation directly accessible from control room
Bunker (will replace present zone 154)
Contains 16.65 TBq Cs-137 source (662 keV gammas) and muon beam
Control room
Two separate control rooms for services and users in barracks R-B84 and R-A81 with direct access to the preparation area
Dorothea Pfeiffer
GIF++ in Secondary Beams Area, but due to presence of 16.65 TBq source and muon beam more dangerous than
other installations

General Requirements
Dorothea Pfeiffer
Personal access device: PAD People must be able to enter and leave the zone
(very frequently: at times every few minutes) Material access device: MAD
Large and heavy detectors must be brought into and removed from the zone by opening the roof or large concrete door (rarely, a few times per month)
Tools and other material must be brought into and out of the zone (several times per week)

RP Access System Requirements (EDMS Document 1233302)
Dorothea Pfeiffer
Source/beam interface requirements (details of source interface needed): Access must not be possible if the source (or the beam) is
operational Operation of the source (and the beam) must be inhibited and
it must be in its parking position if the PAD or the MAD is open or any shielding is removed (if any equipment interlocked with the source loses its SAFE condition, the source has to be sent to it parking position and then inhibited)
Access must be inhibited if radiation levels inside the zone are above a defined threshold which is determined by an interlocked RP monitor inside the irradiation cave

RP Access System Requirements
Dorothea Pfeiffer
Specific requirements for persons Controlled entry and exit of each person via a
personnel access device (PAD) which excludes the access of more than one person using only a single access token
Entry and exit granted only allowed after badging with a DIS dosimeter. Given the significant hazard posed by the source activity specific access rights might be of advantage to ensure that intervening personnel is aware of the specific hazard

Proposed Solution
PPG, Roof: If opened, patrol lost
PPE & Turnstile: Access rights of people checked, key released and people counted
PPE 2: Key that was taken at turnstile has to be used in key access mode (patrol not lost)
MAD: access for material up to PC size

Detailed access procedure
Dorothea Pfeiffer
Access without breaking the patrol Precondition: Zone is patrolled (number of people in zone = 0) User presents his DIS dosimeter in front of the PPE & turnstile,
gets a key from the key distributer, If permission to access is given, the key has to be turned to
unlock the turnstile to enter At the PPE 2 behind the turnstile the key taken before has to be
used in key access mode (like this one avoids that the key is turned at the turnstile, but then left behind so that a second person could enter using the same key)
The turnstile increments the number of users in the zone by one (the information who entered will be written to a database)
To leave the zone the person will badge again, put the key back and the name will be erased from the database

Open questions
Dorothea Pfeiffer
If the PPX, PPG or roof is opened, the turnstile/database combination cannot control the number of persons in the zone anymore (people could enter/leave via PPX or PPG) Patrol carried out before closing PPG or roof deletes old data
from database?Þ The database is not considered to be a device for
safety, only for users access control Possible to open PPE by turning the key, but then leaving it
there (in this case the next person could enter the turnstile but not take the key and subsequently use the key the first person left in the PPE)?
How can (accidental) removal of shielding block or opening of roof be detected? Special locking elements exist, only when veto in CCC is set moving of blocks possible.
