Subject: leak check coil line(R,U) on TM2 at SHC  

Chad and I leak checked coil line(R,U) on TM2 at SHC yesterday. The leak detector was pumped down to 0.0Xe-9 atm.cc/sec before the check. Chad sprayed helium on the soldering joints connecting the cooling copper lines to the small holding blocks for the coil terminal(R,U).  After sprayed helium 2 seconds, I saw the leak rate on LD started to climbed up. The highest leak rate is 4.0xE-8 atm.cc/sec. It is a very positive response. We waited the leak detector pumped back to 0.0xE-9am.cc/sec, and tested again on the same joints. The result is same. Chad also sprayed helium on the R,U water blocks to check the C-seal. I saw a delayed tiny response on LD ( from 0.0 to 1.3xE-9atm.cc/sec). We think this tiny response is caused by the helium drifting to the leak soldering joint, but not a real C seal leak.
