Willy Andersson | Start Up | Quick check on system |
System in good // warm return mode, temps coming down nicely. BCP2 cryopump
does not look too healthy, temperature is just over 20K, very close to low
set point.
TIC121 down to 120K, Mu1 return temp at 164K, Mu2 return at 273K, T1 inlet
temp at 208K. Cooling looks good for overnight. |

Willy Andersson | Quench Recovery | Compressor trip, 09:50 this morning. |
Main compressor tripped, refrigerator shutdown. Checked with experimentors
and main control room, no indications of power bump etc.
Restarted compressor, // warm then // cold return. One of the MV5x valves
frozen open, had to de-power valve a couple of times to get it to seal. |

Willy Andersson | Quench Recovery | Energized solenoid. |
Switched to series mode about 6 hours ago. Cooling continued including
power leads until LHe level at about 50% and powerleads appeared stable. |

Willy Andersson | Quench Recovery | Powerlead overtemp |
02:30 this morning got page from operations.
Looked at system online, appears that there was a powerlead overtemp
that caused the quench. Compressor still running. After arriving to
work set system to // warm return mode to cool down transferlines. Lhe
level starts to boil away. Switch to // cold return mode. Discovered that
seem to get better cooldown rate by not opening supply valves to solenoid
fully. // cold return valves are fully open but both CV143 and CV146 are
only open to 0.55 giving mu1 and mu2 inlet pressures of 2 barA. Getting
good cool down rates and even building LHe level.
04:25 C1 down to 8K, C12 at 7.5K, C6 at 7.5K, 6KS_M at 10.5K |

Willy Andersson | Quench Recovery | Still in // cold return mode. |
Leaving system cooling in // cold return mode, cooldown rates still good.
Had flow on to powerleads since re-starting cooling flow to solenoid.
Either I (when I return to work later this morning) or Doug will do the
switch to series mode. |

Willy Andersson | Quench Recovery | powerleads cold, energizing solenoid |
Powerlead temperatures have bottomed out, energizing solenoid to 300
amps, ramp rate 60. |
