	The SNS accelerator has been vital in delivering high-impact research for the world scientific community since 2006, with an availability of 99%. This high availability rate is crucial to the success of the facility, and after 16 years of operations, the aging of the components could start to impact this parameter. To mitigate this, condi-tion-based maintenance can be applied to areas of the LINAC to reduce or nullify the possibility of unwanted events that may damage the accelerator functionality. In this work, we describe the development of a non-intrusive leak detection methodology that verifies the health condition of the cryomodule isolation gate valve seals. In case of a sudden vacuum leak in a warm section between the cryomodules, these valves act as a final line of defense to protect the SRF cavities from atmosphere gases contamination, hence knowing their sealing integ-rity condition is paramount. Data taken from the ma-chine during different maintenance periods will be pre-sented, together with the analysis done, to verify the robustness of the numerical method vs. the experimental findings.

	Funding: Work supported by Fermi Research Alliance, LLC under Contract No. DEAC02- 07CH11359 with the United States Department of Energy The PIP-II Project will receive fully assembled cryomodules from CEA and STFC-UKRI as in-kind contributions. Damage to these cryomodules during transport is understood to be a significant risk to the project, so an extensive testing and validation program is in process to mitigate this risk. The centerpiece of this effort is the eventual shipment from FNAL to STFC-UKRI and back of a prototype HB650 cryomodule with cold testing before and after shipment to verify no functionality changes from shipment. Most recently, a test shipment to the UK and back using a cryomodule analog was completed using realistic logistics, handling, instrumentation, and planning. The process of executing this test shipment, lessons learned, and plan moving forward will be presented here.
