Table 5 Safety
  • danger
  • electric shock hazard!
  • HIGH voltages are present in the 1.5T RF Amplifier and PEN Cabinet.
  • Lock out and tag out the 1.5T RF Amplifier and PEN Cabinet before proceeding.
Notice Image
  • danger
  • Possible personal injury or equipment damage!
  • The RF AMPLIFIER could fall while using the hoist.
  • BEFORE PUTTING weight on the hoist, be sure that the hoist chain links are aligned properly. this will help keep the chain from binding up or becoming kinked, which is nearly impossible to correct when the chain is under tension.

Overview

There are three versions of the PGR cabinet. The table below shows which procedure to use to replace the RF amplifier.

For PGR Cabinet Containing: See Illustration: Use Procedure In:
Power Distribution Module (PDM), Cronus Chassis, and SRFD2 RF amplifier (P/N 2230683) Figure 1 Systems with PDM, Cronus Chassis, and SRFD2 Amplifier
No PDM, but has Cronus Chassis and SRFD2 RF amplifier (P/N 2230683) Figure 2 Systems with Cronus Chassis and SRFD2 Amplifier (No PDM)
No PDM or Cronus Chassis, but has XRFD RF amplifier (P/N 5317905-16) Figure 3 Systems with XRFD RF Amplifier

Removing SRFD2 Amplifier

Procedure

  1. Power down the host PC.
  2. Perform lockout/tagout (LOTO) on the PGR PDU/gradient subsystem. See the MR Service Safety Manual, PN 5452735.
  3. Disconnect cables from J2, J3, J11, J21, and J22 on the RF amplifier service bracket. Move these cables up and to the right of the service bracket.

    Figure 4. RF Amplifier Service Bracket

  4. Remove eight screws and washers securing the RF amplifier to the cabinet mounting rails.

    Figure 5. RF Amplifier Screw Locations

  5. Slide the RF amplifier and service bracket out of the PGR cabinet.
    note:

    The sliding amplifier is a pinch hazard. Wear proper work gloves while performing this procedure.

  6. Remove tie wraps securing MGD/CAM cables to the service bracket.
  7. Cut the cable ties securing the power cable to the cabinet, and remove the power cable from the cabinet.
    note:

    The power cable remains secured to the rear of the RF amplifier. Note how this cable is routed in the cabinet.

  8. Mount the hoist service kit to the top of the RF side of the cabinet. See Hoist Service Kit and Lifting Accessories.
  9. Connect the lifting hooks from the hoist kit to the service bracket.

    Figure 6. Lifting Hooks Connected to Service Bracket

  10. Remove the tie wraps from the front of the service bracket. Move the cables going to the front of the MGD to behind the lifting hooks and spreader bar. This allows for the amplifier to be removed and placed on its skid without having to disconnect the cable from the MGD when removing the service bracket from the amplifier. (Cables may remain on top of the amplifier at this time.)
  11. Using the hoist, apply tension to the lifting chain until the weight of the amplifier is supported by the hoist.
    12. Notice Image
    • notice
    • Tie up the cables going to MGD/CAM to prevent damage to those cables.
  12. note:

    It is recommended that you cut the cable ties before disconnecting cables from the RF amplifier. This allows the amplifier to be fully removed from the cabinet, making it easier to disconnect cables from the amplifier.

    Cut the cable ties securing cables to the rear of the service bracket.
  13. From the power distribution module in the RF side of the cabinet, disconnect the power cable from the mounting studs.

    Figure 7. Power Cable Mounting Studs

  14. Remove eight screws securing the service bracket to the slide rails.

    Figure 8. Slide Rail Screw Locations

    note:

    One screw on each side is accessible through a hole in the slide rail. If necessary, you can remove the right side cabinet door for better access to the screw on that side.

  15. Remove the top of the crate containing the replacement amplifier. The top of the crate for the replacement amplifier becomes the bottom of the crate for returning the failed amplifier.
  16. Place the removed crate top under the failed amplifier with the pads facing the floor.

    Figure 9. FRU Crate Top

  17. Using the hoist, lower the RF amplifier onto the crate top.
  18. Disconnect cables from J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, J8, J9, J10, J13, J14, and J18 on the rear of the RF amplifier.

    Figure 10. Cable Locations on RF Amplifier (Rear View)

  19. Disconnect the lifting hooks from the service bracket.
  20. Remove the service bracket from the RF amplifier by removing eight screws.

    Figure 11. Service Bracket Screw Locations

  21. Move the defective RF amplifier you removed away from the cabinet.

Installing New SRFD2 Amplifier

Procedure

  1. Move the new RF amplifier near the cabinet. Attach the service bracket to the new RF amplifier using eight screws. See Figure 11.
  2. Connect the lifting hooks to the service bracket. See Figure 6.
  3. Using the hoist, lift the replacement RF amplifier up to the level where the holes for the rail mounting screws align with the holes on the slide rails.
  4. Route the power cable from the RF amplifier to the cabinet power distribution module and connect the cable to the mounting studs. See Figure 7.
    note:

    The cable routes inside of the slide rail for the RF amplifier, up the side of the cabinet, and then across the top of the cabinet. If you route the cable outside the mounting rail, you will not be able to slide the RF amplifier into the cabinet.

  5. Connect cables J3, J4, J5, J6, J7, J8, J9, J10, J13, J14, and J18 to the rear of the RF amplifier. See Figure 10.
  6. Secure the RF amplifier to the slide rails with eight screws.
  7. Remove the lifting hooks from the service bracket.
  8. Remove and stow the hoist service kit. See Hoist Service Kit and Lifting Accessories.
  9. Slide the RF amplifier into the cabinet, and secure it to the cabinet mounting rails with eight screws and washers.
  10. Connect cables J2, J3, J13, J21, and J22 to the front of the service bracket. See Figure 4.
  11. Secure the cables that were tied with cable ties.
  12. Go to the Step Finalization section.

Systems with XRFD RF Amplifier

Removing XRFD Amplifier

Procedure

    • caution
    • Possible injury!
    • The XRFD amplifier weighs 45 pounds (20.4 kg). Improper lifting of the amplifier may cause injury.
    • Use the hoist to lift the XRFD amplifier.
  1. Power down the host PC.
  2. note:

    The lights on the amplifier will remain on for up to 10 seconds after power is locked out.

    Perform LOTO on the PGR PDU/gradient subsystem. See the MR Service Safety Manual, PN 5452735.
  3. Before disconnecting any coolant lines on the front of the RF amplifier, shut down the Power Electronics Pump (PE) at the HEC by pressing ▲ and F3 simultaneously. Then switch the PE circuit breaker to OFF.

    Figure 20. Power Electronics Pump OFF

  4. Disconnect the coolant hoses from the XRFD amplifier. Wipe up any drips with a cloth.
    5. Notice Image
    • notice
    • Failure to purge water coolant from the amplifier can result in severe damage to the amplifier due to freezing during return shipment.
  5. Drain the coolant from the XRFD amplifier. See Coolant Draining.
  6. Disconnect the cables from the XRFD amplifier. Move the disconnected cables so the amplifier can slide freely out of the cabinet.
    note:

    Remove the head transmit and body transmit cables last. If you require a wrench to remove these cables, take care to not damage other connectors on the front of the amplifier.

  7. Remove four screws and washers securing the XRFD amplifier to the cabinet mounting rails.

    Figure 21. Screw Locations for Securing RF Amplifier to Cabinet Rails

    • caution
    • Pinch Hazard!
    • The sliding amplifier is a pinch hazard.

  8. Slide the XRFD amplifier out of the PGR cabinet.
    9. Notice Image
    • notice
    • Do not use the handles on the front of the amplifier to lift it. Use the hoist brackets to lift the amplifier.
  9. There are two hoist brackets included in the amplifier FRU. Attach the hoist brackets to the top of the XRFD amplifier. Each bracket is secured with three screws.

    Figure 22. Hoist Bracket Screw Locations

  10. Mount the hoist service kit to the top of the RF side of the cabinet. Refer to Hoist Service Kit and Lifting Accessories.
