Abstract Many of the SRF activities involve interactions to cavities which presents risk for particulate contamination to RF surfaces. In order to understand and reduce contamination in cavities during cleaning, vacuum pumping and purging, and in-situ cryomodule repairs, a Quality Assurance (QA) studies were initiated to evaluate these activities and improve them where possible. This paper covers the results of investigations on the effectiveness of the SNS ultrasonic cleaning systems, particulate control during pumping and purging, procedure development for in-situ cryomodule repairs, the application of these studies to the repair of a linac cryomodule, and discussion of further improvement in these areas.
