  The CC-18/9M cyclotron system has been designed, manufactured and delivered to JSC "NIITFA", Moscow to be operated in a pilot PET center. Acceptance tests have been conducted; design parameters of the updated cyclotron have been obtained: energy variation of accelerated proton and deuteron beams within the ranges of 12 - 18 and 6 - 9 MeV with currents of 150 and 50 mkA respectively. For the first time in NIIEFA practice the cyclotron is equipped with a target system intended for the production of F-18 and C-11 radionuclides for PET. At present the cyclotron system in the PET center is put into commercial operation.

  Experience of preparation of the water target device for the F-18 operating is presented in the present article. Processes of vacuum preparation, target coils, seals, a body of a target, deinstallation and installation of the target device are considered. So, by preparation for mounting of vacuum and target coils, as a result of flushing in a hostile environment (potassium permanganate) the material corrupting discloses at a stage of the vacuum target tests is revealed. Subsequently coil flushing was carried out in the deionized water. The derived development researches have revealed a need for refuse a hostile environment by preparation of target devices. Isotope operating results and the subsequent product synthesis based on F-18 showed an almost total impurity absence. The product yield after the module of synthesis constituted at least 60%. Besides, installation works with the target device has shown need of application of quick-detachable connections on the cooling target lines that generally affined with the high induced activity on the work place.
