While in use in the OAB (Optics Assembly Building), the Spreader Bar ‘Assembly will be manipulated by the NOID (New Optics Insertion Device). ‘The other critical components of the assembly are the three angular contact bearing swivels that attach the spreader bar to the lifting mechanism and the comer clamps which are used to capture the Cell Housing. Section B: Operational Hazards The lifting fixture is the only support for the midplane and the PEPC Cell Assembly while it is being manipulated by the NOID. For this reason, it must provide reliable support in al lifting situations. The midplane and its fixture will be well above the ground so there is a critical need for a robust supporting structure. A failure of the unit would represent a probable hazard to personnel and equipment. Section C: Procedures The spreader bar was designed for two specific uses. One use is in lifting the midplane transportation fixture, which holds one midplane assembly. ‘The other use is in lifting the PEPC Cell Housing. When the midplane assembly is to be lifted, the operator shall first establish that the corner clamps/lifting lugs have been removed from the assembly. The midplane will be connected to the spreader bar directly to the bearing swivels using the pins provided along with the bearing swivels. ‘When the fixture is to lift the PEPC Cell Housing, the comer clamps/lifting lugs MUST be attached. They were designed to seat into the cell housing without damaging the payload. The hex-head bolts used to attach the cell shall be tightened to 45 N-m before every lift. Despite the fact that the fixture has been certified to lift the mass of two cell halves at a time, it shall only be used to lift one cell half during normal operation. ection D: Summ: Factor Table 1 lists the calculated safety factors and required safety factor for the static 9- kilonewton design load for the different components of the lifting fixture. The calculations used to arrive at these results can be found in Appendix 3. -2- ‘This work was performed under the auspices of the U. S.
