Controlled Entry and PPS Safety Training¶
Occasionally MICE collaborators will need to enter the MICE Hall when it has been searched and secured.
Since search and secure can take up to an hour a procedure has been put in place to allow controlled access.
Pre-requisites¶
Personnel can only be allowed to carry out a controlled access if
- they have already received CDM training
- they have been trained in procedures for working in the MICE Hall magnetic field environment
- they have been trained in the controlled access procedure
Controlled access procedure is governed by
- the Controlled Access checklist (if no SC Magnet permit is active)
OR - the Controlled Access with SC Magnet Permit Active checklist (if the SC permit is active)
Shifters should be aware of both checklists and should follow each step during the access.
THREE people are required to carry out a controlled access:
TWO workers or more who will make the access and be present in the hall. Both must have been trained in the Controlled Access procedure.
ONE Door Operator to manage the access and keep a log of entries and exits.
Shifter Controlled Access Training¶
This training will qualify the recipient to enter the Hall in a Controlled Entry state, and to act as the Door Operator
The following aspects should be covered:
- PPS system principles - Hazards managed by the PPS and those outside of the system (like Stray magnetic fields, ODH, neutron monitor, LH2 beacon & PPE), show crates, door sensors etc and mimic operation
- PPS safety aspects - Beam off Buttons, Crash outs, Status indicators by doors, Operation under Blue lights, Use of walkie talkies and requirement to take CE logbook under evacuation
- Run through the "Shifter Controlled Entry checklist"
- Go through procedure from "Hall Ready" status to "Controlled Entry" status (PK00 run key)
- Perform Controlled Entry

- Demonstrate SC permit beacon by dropping CE door bypass. Explain need to reinstate the Hall Search or Cancel the SC permit if access is required
- Cancelling the PPS search down to "Free Access" using the "Start search" key in the main SCP.
PPS Hall User Training¶
