Due to the differences in the use of the graphite foils in past SiC targets (C-grv foil from Alpha Aesar) and the newly prepared SiC#27 (C-grv
foil from Ceramaterial), the out-gassing period for SiC#27 took over 6 days compared to 3 days for the vacuum to come down (see https://elog.triumf.ca/TIS/Evaporator_1/47). |

Evaporator was cleaned Nov 11 from after target was conditioned up to 175A. There was significant condensation of oily fluid on the left side where the
target container was open (D-shaped end cap). There were also deposits in the hole for the ionizer, but the ionizer itself seemed to be clean. |
