Dan and I finished TM4 and ITE annual leak check on primary and secondary vacuum vessel. We found one leak on a KF25 blank off which is located on the top of the service cap. It is a low E-7 atm.cc/sec range leak. But, it is very close to turbo-pumps so ITE IG1 and other gauges are not affected by it very much. It is an easy fix. TheKF -25 center ring on the blank off will be replaced after vent . It be will leak checked again at CS after replacement. That is only leak we found on TM4 and ITE primary and secondary vessel air to vaccum leak check.
Dan and I also finished the helium pressure test on all TM4 using water circuits. 70 psi helium. base LR 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec. All of them are leak free. No any response has been found on leak detector during test. |
