Nuclear Canister Filter Test System UPC Plan
LANL has purchased “Hagan” canisters and “SAVY” canisters from NFT Inc (Golden CO). This document provides instruction for calibrating a LANL-designed FTS Filter Test System. The FTS device measures the amount of oil droplet aerosol captured in filters of nuclear material canisters at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). The FTS device is intended to evaluate canister filters manufactured by NFT. The Los Alamos Standards and Calibration Lab (S&CL) does not support the calibration of aerosol generation or counting instrumentation. For operations inside the LANL TA-55 PF4 facility, the LANL FTS system could be potentially contaminated. LANL has constructed two (2) FTS devices, one in TA-55, the other in TA-3.
