Scope

This document describes the safety plan for the Raven bench when located at theSubaru Telescope in Hilo and at the summit facility. The safety plan details the load-ing/unloading procedures at both facilities, the transportation plan to move Ravenbetween Hilo and the summit, and list the various hazards associated with Raven.

This document is intended to be used by the Raven team and sta� of the SubaruTelescope in order to ensure that (i) the Raven team and Subaru sta� members areworking in safe conditions around Raven, (ii) the Raven bench can be transportedwithout any damage occurring to the equipment. The Raven team is dedicated tomake Raven's operation, as smooth as possible, regarding Subaru Telescope .

The Raven bench is 1.2 x 1.4 x 1.75 m and weighs 896 kg. The bench is accompa-nied by a computer rack weighting 250 kg and various tools and spares. Due to thebench size and weight, it must be handled using equipment such as pallet jack, forkliftand crane. The bench is also equipped with cameras requiring cooling systems andelectrical equipment with high voltage wiring.

To begin the document, we present an overview of the shipping plan to transportRaven from the University of Victoria to the Subaru Telescope in Hilo in Sec. 1. Sec.2describes the loading/unloading/transportation of the instrument in Hilo and at thesummit. The lifting points are detailed in Sec. 3 and a list of hazardous materials isprovided is Sec. 4. Sec. 5 covers the working area needed around the bench in Hilo andat the summit. The storage needs are presented in Sec. 6. App. A, B and C containadditional material associated with Raven safety plan.

All safety requirements regarding Raven's operation and transportation have beenful�lled.

1 Shipping plan from Victoria to Hilo

The Raven bench and accompanying equipment will be shipped to Hilo mid-December.The delivery date is not known by the Raven team at the moment but arrangementwith the shipping company was made to ensure that the delivery date occurs laterthan January 6th, as requested by Subaru sta�.

To ensure the safety of the instrument during transportation, the Raven team hasdesigned custom crates and packaging to secure the load within a 20-foot container (6m long). The bench (with optics and stages removed) and supporting frame (with thescience camera computers in place) will be packaged in a custom-made crate equippedwith a vibration damping base, set on top of a pallet. The vibration damping baseis designed to be able to handle up to a 25 cm drop. The bench structure will bereinforced for transportation.

The computer rack, towers and monitors, will be contained in another customcrate, also equipped with vibration a damping base on top of a pallet. The rest of theequipment will be packaged in individual boxes set on several pallets to facilitate theloading/unloading process.

Other equipment will also be secured on pallets and can be moved with a palletjack or forklift.

Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show a SolidWorks model of the container setup.

Figure 1: Top view of the container.

All contents will be blocked and strapped to handle the possibility of a large pitchand roll angles occurring during ship transportation. All components will be sealed to

protect them from humidity.

The container will be delivered to the Subaru Observatory base in Hilo and willbe left on a trailer in the Subaru parking lot for four days, as requested by Subaru sta�.

2 Loading/unloading plan for Raven

Raven will need to be moved on several occasions after arrival (i) within the Subarubase facility building, (ii) within the Subaru summit facility building, or (iii) trans-ported between the base and summit buildings.

Instead of providing the list of hazards associated with the transportation of Raven,the following sections describe the various loading/unloading/transportation proce-

�RAV-SAF-13-001

dures.

All Raven teammembers and Subaru sta�s assisting with the loading/unloading/transportationof Raven will be required to wear the following PPE: a hard helmet, steel-toed shoesand gloves.

2.1 Subaru Telescope - Hilo base

Upon arrival at Subaru's base facility in Hilo, the Raven team and Subaru sta� willhave four days to empty the container. The container will be on a trailer (approxi-mately 1.2 m high). The crates will be moved toward the opening of the containerusing a pallet jack or a pull strap, and brought inside the SIM lab using the forklift.

Once the crates side have been removed, the bench must be installed in the cleanroom. The bench must �rst be craned up to remove the vibration damping base. TheRaven frame is equipped with casters. To set Raven in the clean room, the clean roomwill be lifted up using the crane and Raven will be rolled into position.

The computer rack is too heavy to be handled manually.The rack will be lifted outof it's crate with the crane. The rack has casters so it can be rolled into the clean room.

2.2 Transportation to Subaru Telescope

2.2.1 Loading Raven on the BSIT truck

To transport Raven to the summit, the bench will be moved out of the SIM lab cleanroom following the procedure previously described in Sec. 2.1.

A mounting frame has been designed by the RAVEN team to mount the RAVENbench in the BSIT. The BUSF with the nested cross-member will be mounted in theBSIT. RAVEN will then be lifted into place with the crane and secured with bolts.Finally, the BSIT cover will be craned into position.

The computer rack must be re-packaged into its original transportation crate andtransported to the summit using a regular truck. A fork lift will be used to load/unloadthe crate to/o� the truck. Other lighter equipment will be brought to the summit us-ing Subaru's SUVs.

2.2.2 Moving Raven from the loading �oor to the Nasmyth InfraRed plat-form

At the summit, the Raven bench will be unloaded using the 80T crane. The computerrack will be unloaded using a forklift.

To bring the Raven bench to the Cassegrain �oor, two options are available:

RAV-SAF-13-001�

UVic AOLabInstallation Plan Part 2: Transportation and Safety Sec. 3 � 8

a) The bench can be lifted up using the 80T crane.

b) The bench is equipped with casters and can be rolled to the elevator, then to thebottom of the Nasmyth platform.

Using the 80T crane would be the preferred option as it reduces the distance that weneed to roll the instrument. Once at the Cassegrain �oor, the bench will be cranedup to the Nasmyth platform and deposited directly on top of the Raven lower frame,already set on the Nasmyth �oor.

The computer rack will be brought to the Cassegrain �oor using the elevator. Then,the crane will be used to move it to the Nasmyth platform.

3 Lifting points

The Raven bench is equipped with four lifting points, as illustrated in Fig. 3.

Figure 3: Raven lifting points.

Each lifting point consists of a bracket assembly with a lifting eye. The lifting eyeis attached to the bracket with a high-strength bolt. The minimum factor of safety for

�RAV-SAF-13-001

9 � Sec. 4Installation Plan Part 2: Transportation and Safety UVic AOLab

the WLL of the eye, with respect to the static weight of the raven bench, is 11.6. Thebracket assembly has been certi�ed by a P.Eng to handle the loads associated withlifting the Raven bench (see App. A).

Raven will provide its own set of lifting slings to facilitate the craning operation.All lifting slings are certi�ed by the manufacturers. A spreader, provided by Subaru,will be used to crane the bench in Hilo and at the summit.

There are four lifting sling assemblies that will be used in conjunction with thelifting spreader to lift the RAVEN bench. Starting at the bench lifting bracket, whichis certi�ed by the design engineer, the following purchased hardware will be used:

· Bolt attaching the lifting eye to the custom bracket: grade 8 alloy steel hex head capscrew, zinc yellow-plated, 5/8"-11, WLL 5400 LB.

· Lifting eye: forged steel oval eye nut, 5/8"-11, WLL 5800 LB.

· Eye to sling shackle: galvanized alloy steel shackle with screw pin, 1/2" diameter,WLL 6600 LB.

· Sling: polyester web sling with �at eyes, 1" width, 36" length, WLL 3100 LB (verticalLift).

· Sling to chain shackle: galvanized alloy steel shackle with screw pin, 3/8" diameter,WLL 4000 LB.

· Adjustment Chain: grade 80 alloy steel chain, 5/16", 24" length, WLL 4500 LB.

· Chain to spreader shackle: galvanized alloy steel shackle with screw pin, 3/8" diam-eter, WLL 4000 LB.

· Spreader: Four point adjustable spreader, WLL 6000LB.

The lift stability calculations are presented in App. B.

The computer rack will be also craned to the Nasmyth platform. All lifting equip-ment (slings, shackles, and eyes) are well below their respective WLL. Where the WLLisn't marked on the device, certi�cation will be presented to the safety o�cer prior tothe lift.

4 List of hazards

The Raven science camera is cooled using a water-Propylene Glycol mix. The MSDSfor Propylene Glycol can be found in App. C.

All high voltage cables are listed in Tab. 1, 2 and 3.The bench is equipped with several remotely controllable motors. When the Raven

team is working on the bench alignment, all motion on the bench should be triggered

RAV-SAF-13-001�

UVic AOLabInstallation Plan Part 2: Transportation and Safety Sec. 5 � 10

by a team member who can visually verify that the path is clear in order to ensurethat no body parts get pinched.

Note:

a) No powered industrial truck will be brought by the Raven team into the Subarufacility.

b) Raven does not use compressed gas.

5 Work area

Two shelving units will be brought in the container from UVic and set up in the SIMLab clean room in order to store tools and spares. A �oor map of the SIM Lab cleanroom is provided in Fig. 4.

At the summit, Raven will be set on the lower frame connecting the bench to theNasmyth platform. As a result, the bench height will be raised by 36.3 cm. In order tosimplify the access to the bench optical component and facilitate alignment, two workplatforms or narrow gauge sca�olding will be set along the side of the Raven bench.A shelving unit could also be brought at the summit to store tools and spares.

6 Storage plan for Raven

Because Raven must eventually be shipped back to Canada, all custom shipping cratesand packaging must be stored.

All shipping material can be stored inside the Raven bench crate and the computercrate. The crates dimension are:

· Raven bench crate: 2.0 m L x 1.75 m W x 2.0 m H.

· Computer rack crate: 1.75 m L x 1.4 m W x 1.5 m H.

An illustration of the two crates, set up for storage is presented in Fig. 5.
