Entry  Thu Oct 30 13:14:51 2014, Brian Minato, Other, Other, OLIS Update 

MCIS-

a new oven assembly was installed on the MCIS yesterday.  The cart has been installed in the cage and is connected.

The power is connected to the cart oven as is the MCIS bias.  it is currently on and being tested for Se

MWS-

Keerthi removed the Be electrode and installed the quartz beaker.  There is quite a bit of a copper coating inside the source.

 

Entry  Tue Oct 28 13:30:47 2014, Brian Minato, Other, Other, MCIS Update 

MCIS-

the cleaning has been completed.  The oven assembly is removed and the gate valve closed.

The quartz tubes on the ground electrode have been installed with the larger diameter tube pushed as far downstream (toward the optics box) as possible.  The smaller tube has been positioned to extend 1-3/4" into the plasma chamber w.r.t. the insulator flange.

Currently the turbos are running and the source is pumping down.

Note-

there was a Controls problem when trying to operate the source.  They tracked the problem down to a bad ethernet communication cable.  A temporary cable is in place while a new one is being prepared.

Entry  Mon Oct 27 15:13:18 2014, Brian Minato, , ,  

MCIS-

cleaning out source to remove potassium and calcium.

Areas cleaned with scotch-brite and then wiped with methanol:  plasma chamber, tuning chamber (ports opened for access), TP3 tube.  The inside of the ground electrode tip has been removed and sand blasted clean.  The inside of the ground electrode has been wiped as much as possible (very limited access).

 The ALGA amplifier has been unplugged and moved.

Entry  Fri Oct 24 10:50:20 2014, Brian Minato, Other, Other, OLIS Update 

The nitrogen bottle needs to be replaced.

 

MCIS-

Does not appear to be producing very much Se.  There is a lot of calcium and potassium.

Cart is removed.  Unplugged CPI amplifier.   No extra time for investigation.  Set-up required for MWS.

note:  one cart wheel is damaged.  will need to service, or replace in s/d.  other wheels will need to be check as well.

 

MWS-

Changed to Be plasma electrode for upcoming experiment.

Entry  Thu Oct 23 10:52:21 2014, Brian Minato, Routine, General, ALGA Amplifier 

The ALGA amplifier and its signal generator have been turned off at the request of Controls.  They have had communication issues and are looking for any recent changes.

Entry  Wed Oct 22 07:58:32 2014, Brian Minato, Other, General, MCIS Work 

The remaining connections were done on the MCIS. 

A piece of 1/8" teflon was installed between the back of the sputtering tube/motor and the HV cage.

Ray confirmed the cart power supplies (heater and sputtering) Epics page readouts for Voltage and Current are okay.  The Heater p/s was left plugged into the cart receptacle.  The Sputtering p/s's are unplugged.

The MCIS:FC0 OUT limit was not actuating.  It was adjusted.

Keerthi tested the oven last night and was getting Se (14/10/24 it appeared to be Se, but the Prague magnet was not working.  Further investigation revealed it was not).  The oven supply is currently bypassed and ON.

 

Evigeny is working on the Alga and CPI amplifiers.  Both signal generators and the amplifiers are powered ON and connected.  Alga to the dummy load and CPI to the MCIS.

Entry  Tue Oct 21 07:14:26 2014, Brian Minato, Other, General, OLIS Work 

MCIS-

the cart was moved into the HV cage.  The facilities will be connected and an oven will be tested for the upcoming Se experiment.

Will take measurements for installation of key interlocks on cart power supplies.

SIS-

the filament assembly was removed for inspection.  When increasing the ionizer current it would work correctly until about 20 amps.  Then the current would stop (like an open cct).

MWS-

will prepare for Be later this week.

This entry was incorrectly added to the OLIS logbook.  it has been moved to the I3 logbook.

Entry  Fri Oct 10 14:02:56 2014, Raymond Dube, Routine, General, Test with new Alga, ALPA 50W RF AMP ALPA-RF_AMP-50W.pdf

We did a test yesterday with the new Alga Microwave RF AMP, model # ALPA 50 Watt, serial # 130684 to be used for the MCIS.  We used the RF Generator from MISTIC and set the frequency to 13.80 Ghz, note that the RF Generator was/is  limited to 16DB maxiumum RF output.

The RF cable that we used was from the 200W RF AMP, it has a 20DB SMA attenuator at the Generator end, so we could only get about 25 Watts maximum output.

Entry  Tue Sep 16 11:55:28 2014, Raymond Dubé, Routine, General, MCIS info Cart-Power1.pdfSuperNanogan_Control-R1.pdfSupernanogan_Interlocks-R1.pdf

I found these files about the MCIS in Geoff folders in M:\ISIS\Geoff-110715\OLIS\SuperNanogan

Entry  Wed Aug 13 15:09:42 2014, Raymond Dubé, Routine, General, OLIS Attenuators #2 fixed, #1 gone! 

Today Probe group (Scott K.) installed the OLIS Attenuator, they fixed the vacuum leak on Attenuator #2,  Marco M. asked them to remove Attenuator #1 because it is not needed and confusing for Ops;

 

Attenuator #1 was an experiment that Marco M. asked for, it was the same as Attenuator #2 but with 45 degrees offset, the results were not good and he decided to remove it.

Entry  Wed Aug 13 15:04:05 2014, Raymond Dubé, , , OLIS Bender Magnet PS (0-500 amps) 

Arthur and Derek had a look at the OLIS Bender Magnet P/S and found a problem with the Polarity Switch, it was set up upside down, they fixed that.

Note: We do not need a Polarity Switch for OLIS may be we should remove or bypass it, at the moment when the PS goes OFF we need to use the reverse Polarity to Bend the Beam the right way.

Entry  Wed Aug 13 15:00:27 2014, Raymond Dubé, Routine, General, OLIS Surface Source broken Ionizer Coil ISK4386D-rev5.pdfISK4583D-rev7.pdfISK4584D-rev1.pdfPE-R5-FAN_ON.jpg

We spent most of the day looking at OLIS to find out why the "Ionizer Coil" keeps breaking down, we found the following:

1.  The FAN to cool R5 (ref: ISK4583D rev.7) a 25 Ohm 200W Resistor (2x50 ohm/100W ea.) was not ON, the nylon insulator (also the plastic tube across to the HV Terminal) was burnt and not holding the R5 resistor properly, I replaced the plastic insulator with a ceramic insulator.

Note that if the PE electrode is open it will charge up to the beam energy and start sparking.  Also I used a red heatshrink tubing to prevent the BNC connector (it sits at Common) to touch the Cu pipe for the Plasma electrode water cooling.

Attached is the scheduled work for OLIS next week.

Entry  Wed Jan 29 12:27:57 2014, Raymond Dubé, , , OLIS Skimmers BOP & Labels isk4363d-rev4.pdfisk4365d-rev2.pdf

I updated 2 drawings that show the OLIS skimmers.

A.  ISK4363D for the OLIS Skimmers BOP connections, we have 7 skimmers cables (6 wires per cable) going in and 16 skimmers channel going out to Controls.

B.  ISK4365D that shows the skimmers cables location along the OLIS beamline.

Entry  Fri Jan 24 09:15:10 2014, Raymond Dubé, , , New ISK4586D for OLIS with 3 Ion Source ISK4586D-rev1.pdf

I created a new drawing: ISK4586D that shows the Optics for OLIS with 3 Ion Source.

Entry  Thu Jan 23 12:56:14 2014, Raymond Dubé, , , New & updated drawings for S.S. ISK4478D-rev5.pdfISK4585D-rev2.pdfISK4583D-rev5.pdf

I updated an old drawing ISK4478D (MS & MCIS Optics) and created 2 new ones: ISK4583D (Electrical Diagram for SS & MS) and ISK4585D (SS & MS Optics)

If you see any errors please let me know.

Entry  Wed Jan 22 10:34:58 2014, Raymond Dubé, , , IN-line 100K for IOS:YCB1A removed 

Last January 17th 2014 we removed an in-line resistor (100K 10W) from IOS:YCB1A because we do not think that it is needed.

 

Entry  Mon Dec 17 14:10:22 2012, Keerthi Jayamanna, , , Gas flow controller fault 

Controls group may need some assistance from OLIS group in order to trouble shoot the problem.
