The Online Scintillator Internal Radioactivity Investigation System (OSIRIS) is a 20-ton liquid scintillator detector currently under construction at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) in Kaiping, China. OSIRIS* main goal is the monitoring of the purity of the liquid scintillator during the filling phase of the JUNO main detector. The construction of OSIRIS was performed between September *22 to January *23 and involved both, Chinese and German personnel. During that time all auxiliary systems (e.g., liquid handling), (digital) infrastructure (e.g., network devices) as well as scientific equipment was installed. This talk will report on the procedures, systems, challenges, and results of this installation work. This work is supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft.
