The cooling package and vacuum was stopped today at 9:26 so the module can be move.

After few hickups the TCS was successfuly commissioned. In the morning, in the middle of the heaters conditioning: 360A/250A for the TGHT/TBHT, the target heater PS tripped and it didn't recover immediately.  I cannot tell if the card is still OK. Before this even, there were few bias current sparks created when the ionized tube was raised above 250A; this also tripped the Einzel lens. Re-started the Heaters, and did the conditioning with the rest (HV, Optics) Off. After the heaters were at nominal values, raised the rest: HV to 30kV and the Optics. And everything held fine. The current on the FC was 3micro-Amperes. The water temperature levels stayed below 25 deg Celsius. The problems that need to be fixed: 1. The biggest problem was created by the target power supply: the new card is not calibrated, the voltage is not regulating, but the main problem is the grounding of the output of power supply. Friedhelm measured 0.2V across the return and the cage (200mili-ohms resistance) .  This was probably overlooked. 2. The Auto-ramping routine didn't work. Controls would need to fix this. 3. The RGA didn't want to connect from the account Don created for me. So, we have only a RGA scan taken on Friday by Don, when the target was cold.

 Response to item 1. 

This morning I investigated the output of the TGHT power supply. The negative output of the power supply is tied to common as per ISK4574D Rev 7 (attached) and the released drawing IRH1511 Rev A (PDF attached but officially located in the SW vault). If this is not the intent of the IRH1511 should be released to Rev C reflecting the desired configuration. 

 In regards to the calibration of the card I will inform the PS group. 

TM#4 with the CS Test target has been moved from the conditioning station to the south hot cell. Move went well.

 Roughing started at 12:06. It was believed there was a problem with the compressed air but there was none, TM1 doesn't leak and so you cannot hear that the connection is made.

 Roughing stopped as the module and cover requires modifications that require the vacuum to be opened.

TM#1 with Ta#39 at the conditioning station, has failed its electrical test see attached pdf for details. Also while setting up for the electrical test one of the high powered flexible connectors popped out its crimp and another is working it out its crimp.

TM#1 with Ta#39 had the electrical check done on it again it passed, changes this time were the water lines were purged and it was under a better then roughing vacuum. See the attached pdf for details.

 TM1 started venting at 4:15 pm with Argon. I will leave the valve open over night.

TM#1 with Ta#39 has not passed it electrical check again, while sitting at the conditioning station at air. The readings have not been consistant. See the current PDF for details.

TM#1 with Ta#39 electrical check at the target station see attached PDF (CHK 4).(April 9th 2013) PASSED

TM#1 with Ta#39 electrical check at the target station see attached PDF (CHK 5).(April 10th 2013) PASSED

On April 08th, all water lines in TM1 had been helium pressure tested(70psi) at conditioning station. No leak had been found.

TM#3 with no target has been moved from the south hot cell to the conditioning station. Move went well. The fields around the module was 1.6mSv/hr.

 Both Turbo pumps on TM3 have failed. They were both attempted to start in soft mode. TP2 could only achieve ~19kpm and TP1 ~10kpm. I have turned off the scroll pump and vented through the turbo pumps.

 Turbo Pump 2 has been replaced on TM3. I got a count of 350 on the sleeve of my tank suit.

With the Turbo pump replaced I have started roughing at 10:48

 Both Turbo Pumps are now operational.

 Turbo pumps 1 and 2 both found randomly off, have been restarted

TM3 leak check at conditioning station without target: TM3 all air to vacuum seals have been leak checked . They are all good. Water lines TAR(+-), TUBE(+-), GAS, MSP , COIL2(+-), EE, HS(1,2) , GE,and WINDOW have been helium pressurized to 70 psi for 2 minutes each . No response had been found on leak detector. They are leak tight.. Leak detector BR 0.0xE-9atm.cc/sec, BP 0.0xE-4 torr. TM3 and CS vacuum: PNG15.2xE-6 torr, IG1 8.8xE-7 torr,IG2 2.8xE-6torr, IG1S 1.3xE-6 torr.      

 Cooling Package was started at 9:25 this morning inlet conductivity is 0.08 Mohm at 22.9C. Resistance reached 5.33 Mohm by 11:30

 The flow meter on the primary side (TCS:DIF2) of the conditioning station is broken. I investigated and there is flow, the gauge is not fouled, and the PLC does read back when current supplied. The gauge is also reciving 24V but the output is 0V and 0mA. I will contact ESC and the supplier.
