######### EXPERIMENT SAFETY REVIEW FORM

#  REVIEW NUMBER (supplied by ERC): PO2004-097

**I. DEFINE THE SCOPE OF WORK**

######## Description

*Describe the experiment purpose/scope. Identify all apparatus that will
be used, and associated requirements. List special equipment (X-ray
generators, lasers etc.) that will be used during the project. Identify
measurement and test equipment, apparatus operating conditions, and
required maintenance procedures as appropriate. Include calibration
frequency for formal [calibration
requirements](https://sbms.bnl.gov/standard/05/0500t011.htm). Attach
supporting documents such as engineering calculations, drawings and
specifications.*

*Indicate if modification of facility is required. Include the setup and
decommissioning phases of the experiment. The Work Permit Process/Form
may better address the hazards & controls of the set-up and/or tear down
phases. Indicate if a Work Permit will be used.*

The purpose of this ESR is to document and ensure the safety of a
procedure used in testing and perfecting apparatus which will be used by
the ATLAS LAr calorimeter group. The testing described here will be done
in building 832. The apparatus consists of a LAr (liquid argon) bath,
with less than 1 ft^3^ of LAr when full, and a small test cell immersed
in the LAr. The tests will be done first with LN2, then repeated with
LAr.

There is no possible oxygen deficiency hazard; calculations show that an
instantaneous release of the entire volume of LN2 (less than 15 liters,
or 10,000 liters gas) into the lab in 832 (room volume greater than 2.5
million liters) would reduce the oxygen concentration from 21.0% to
20.9%, assuming no ventilation. This yields a fatality factor of zero
under the SBMS ODH rules. The result is similar for LAr instead of LN2.

The LAr bath will be filled to a level about 6\" below the top of the
container. The cell will be cooled by immersion in the bath and will be
evacuated before filling or cooling. When the cell is in position in the
setup, immersed in the LAr bath, it will be connected to clean, gaseous
Ar at a pressure of 0.5 bar gage. The pressure and flow rate of the Ar
into the cell will be monitored. When the flow goes to zero and the
pressure gage is stable, we can assume that the cell is full and the
fill line can be closed. The pressure in the cell will be monitored
throughout the test, and it has a relief valve.

2 kV will be applied to the cell with a standard NIM-crate HV supply,
which has a current limit of less than 1 mA. Only SHV connectors will be
employed, and there will be no exposed HV conductors.

After one hour and 15 minutes, we will push out the liquid in the cell
with a small over-pressure of He gas and condense the liquid into a 1.7
liter Al cylinder rated at 2015 psi (cylinder specification DOT-3AL2015)
immersed in the same liquid as the test cell and therefore cooled to the
same temperature. We will also transfer the liquid through cryopumping,
in which we will allow the LAr in the test cell to move into the Al
cylinder (chilled in LAr) under its own pressure, with the idea of
comparing the two procedures. The cylinder will be sealed off, removed
from its bath and warmed up. We estimate, and will verify, that there
will be about 20cc of liquid in the cell, and another 30cc in the
plumbing and that the pressure in the cylinder will rise to about 600
psi. The cylinder will be fitted with a 1900 psi rupture disk. The
rupture disk used is R.S. Crum & Company part no. SS-RTM4-F4-1, "Rupture
Disc Tee", 1900 psig burst pressure, 316 stainless steel.

For the method which employs helium to push the LAr out of the cell, the
He in the cell will rise in pressure to about 35 psi gage when we seal
off the cell and warm it up. For the method which employs cryopumping to
empty the cell, there will remain in the sealed-off cell less than 1 atm
pressure.

Under a limited work permit, we have cold-cycled and leak-tested the
apparatus 3 times, including the Al cylinder, and have found no leaks.

######## Materials Used /Waste Generated

Ordering/using the smallest amount, using recycled material substituting
non-hazardous materials. The [**Pollution Prevention and Waste
Minimization Subject

plan, conduct, and closeout work activities to eliminate or minimize the
impact of their activities on the environment.*

**III. DEVELOP AND IMPLEMENT HAZARD CONTROLS**

*For each hazard identified in the previous section, describe how that
hazard is controlled. Identify the **Engineering Controls (e.g.,
interlocks, shielding), Administrative Controls (e.g., procedures, RWPs)
or Personal Protective Equipment (e.g., respirators, gloves; see the
[Personal Protective Equipment Subject
Area](https://sbms.bnl.gov/standard/2r/2r00t011.htm)**) that will be
employed to reduce hazards to acceptable levels.*

*The Experiment Review Coordinator, along with the **Principal
Investigator** (PI) and Building Manager, as appropriate, will evaluate
this experiment for impacts that will require an update to the Facility
Use Agreement (FUA), and or Fire/Rescue Run Cards.*

*The **PI** develops and implements hazard controls in consultation
with, and using feedback from, the personnel who will be performing the
work.*

**IV. PERFORM WORK WITHIN CONTROLS**

All work shall be performed within the controls identified within this
document. It is the PI's responsibility to ensure that this document is
kept up to date. The PI should consult with the ERC as appropriate to
determine if changes to this document are significant enough to require
a new review/document.

If a hazard assessment may be required for this experiment, the PI
should contact the ES&H Coordinator and/or the ERC for assistance. The
PI should document any hazard assessments performed for this experiment
in Section VI.

###### A. Training

List all project personnel, indicating they are authorized and competent
to perform the work described. List the training required for each
individual. Identify any certifications or experiment-specific training
required. Indicate if any project personnel are minors (under 18 yrs. of
age). Contact your Training Coordinator and ES&H Coordinator as
appropriate for assistance.

*It is the responsibility of the PI to maintain a complete up-to-date
list of personnel and their full training requirements, and to ensure
that training and qualifications are maintained. A [sample ESR signature
form](http://www.phy.bnl.gov/~safety/documents/ReviewFormsLink.html)* is
available.
