Chris has set up the M9 solenoid e-log at the above web address. Play with
it and let me know if it breaks. |
Sun Apr 25 21:41:00 2004, Willy Andersson, Quench Recovery, Trip on PL Temp.
|
Got pager call at 16:20 this afternoon. Solenoid had tripped on PL
temperature. Arrived at about 17:00. Did a print screen of the striptool
graph and solenoid screen. See files Prtscrn1_april25_2004.doc and

Mon Apr 26 07:48:46 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Series mode
|
Switching over to series mode. |
Mon Apr 26 08:12:30 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Power leads flow
|
Throttled back the LHe in until the power leads started to warm. My goal is
to flow "warm" gas (hopefully 80K) through the leads to drive any frozen
impurities out. |
Thu Apr 29 23:43:15 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Starting flow to solenoid
|
Solenoid quenched due to power leads at 9:00 tonight. Restarted flow in
parallel warm mode. |
Fri Apr 30 01:53:34 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, switched to parallel cold
|
|
Wed May 5 07:55:37 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Solenoid quenched on power lead temp
|
Solenoid quenched on power lead temp. I ran down and managed to recover it
with minimal temp rise in the solenoid. Coil temps are falling, liquid is
building. No flow to the power leads yet. |
Wed May 5 09:59:10 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, started flow to power leads
|
Started flow to power leads.
TIC121 into auto mode |
Wed May 5 23:57:38 2004, Willy Andersson, Quench Recovery, Powerleads warming up again.
|
Got a page from Don Flemming at about 18:50 wondering why the power
lead temperatures were rising. See attachment may5_04_1800.BMP It looked as
though the monitoring signals flat lined for about 2 hours for some reason.

Thu May 6 09:32:13 2004, Willy Andersson, Quench Recovery, Additional notes from last night power lead problems.
|
When performing last nights refrigerator adjustments I also increased the
compressor discharge pressure to 11.25 barA. Also the backup air compressor
was tripped off again and I reset it. Finally I opened the city water flow
|
Fri Jun 25 12:36:04 2004, Willy Andersson, Quench Recovery, Compressor unloaded etc.
|
At about 09:30 this morning I noticed the sound coming from the compressor
building seemed louder than usual. After entering the building I noted that
the compressor was unloaded to about 50% and the compressor suction was
|
Fri Jun 25 14:20:58 2004, Willy Andersson, Quench Recovery, Switch to series mode
|
At about 14:00 solenoid temps dipping below 8 K. Trace of LHe level (dense
gas) starting to show. Switching to series cooling mode. |
Tue Jul 27 23:33:27 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Solenoid quench 9:30
|
I was phoned at about 9:30 tonight with a solenoid alarm. After looking at
the display I found the system to be tripped off. When I came in I found
the compressor off and the solenoid quenched. There was no real indication
|
Wed Jul 28 00:04:30 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, started flow to solenoid
|
Solenoid temps were: C1 & C12 about 30K. C6 &C7 about 11K. Started flow to
solenoid in parallel cold return. Jumpered out the vacuum gauge for the
solenoid vacuum. |
Wed Jul 28 07:00:18 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, switch to series mode
|
Switching to series mode. Jumper on vacuum gauge removed. |
Wed Jul 28 21:26:19 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Double Power bump
|
Two power bumps tonight. Everything tripped of. Restarted cooling water
pump, diff. pump under solenoid etc. Computer stayed on! Starting
compressor. |
Wed Jul 28 22:01:31 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, Starting flow to solenoid

c1 28, c12 29, c6 11.6, c7 12.5 TI121 22.5 |
Wed Jul 28 23:07:01 2004, Doug Preddy, Quench Recovery, solenoid cooling
|
cooling rates for the solenoid are good. In parallel cold return. |
