Abstract :
The installation of all AGHS subsystems in compliance with a strict Quality Assurance Programme was completed in 1993. Installation was followed by end-to-end commissioning of signal and control loop connections to the Distributed Control System. Plant layout and function are described and results of process tests with hydrogen, deuterium and other test gases are presented. These tests have revealed some minor deficiencies on the subsystems for Cryogenic Distillation, Exhaust Detritiation and Impurity Processing which have been or are in the process of being resolved prior to commissioning with tritium, initially 3g of T2, due to start in 1994
