The Monitor remote handling system was especially developed to perform in situ remote maintenance operations on Line A at the Clinton P. Anderson Meson Facility (LAMPF). Previous papers have traced the development of the system from prototype unit thru the more sophisticated Monitor I and Monitor II systems now in use. The Monitor I and Monitor II systems have served well in performing all necessary maintenance; however, future major improvements and expansion of experimental facilities call for development of a third system. Monitor III is a more portable system which will be able to support major disassembly and reconstruction of facilities remote from Line A. The system will include a large trailer mounted cask for safe transport of obsolete radioactive beam line components to the disposal site.
