Subject: leak check ITE primary and secondary vacuum vessel. 

2018-02-27: Anders and I finished leak check on ITE primary and second vacuum vessel seals. LD connected to ITE BV2 valves between. LD, Base Leak rate 1.2 xE-9atm.cc/sec, base pressure 0.0XE-4torr. There is a leak has been found on TM4 service cap KF25 blank off. The o-ring on the blank off will be changed later. It is an easy fix . Other seals are good. The big T tank seal on secondary vessel is leak checked as well. It is still fine.  Helium pressure on TM4 water lines will be fulfilled at TCS to save dose.

2018-02-28 Leak checked ITW today, LD connected to ITW BV2 valves between LD base LR0.0XE-9 atm.cc/sec. base pressure 0.0Xe-4torr. There is leak has been found on exit module 1 service cap  on  topcover plate   o-ring. The leak is located on the south side of east edge on exit 1. This is the side module 2 is close beside. The leak rate is up to middle of E-8atm.cc/sec  range with 1-2 second helium spray. The leak and leak position are double checked and confirmed.  To completely fix this leak, the o-ring for top cover plate need to be replaced on service cap.It will be a major shut down job.  The  leak is close to ITW TP3 so it is less affect on beam line elevation vacuum.  Vacuum group experts will be consulted to see if we could leave it to next year shutdown.  Other seals are good including big T-tank seal on secondary vessel. TM2 source tray will be replaced this yea rso no helium pressure test on water lines is needed at this moment.
