|
TM1 was moved from SHC to the TCS. The mode took roughly 1 hour. During the move the north east corner of the containment box caught slightly on the
flange of the vacuum vessel and then slipped off. The contact was minimal but should none the less be noted. After sliding off of the flange the module
did not crash into the other sides of the vacuum vessel, this is why I believe the contact was minimal. It should be noted that the corner of concern is |

|
In the AM today David and I used the crane to raise the ground plate sheet metal into place. This afternoon when I attempted to return the crane to its
usual place I discovered that the crane no longer worked. Upon further inspection it appears that the PLC has lost power. I will follow up on this Monday
morning. The crane is not supporting any load at this point. |

TM4 was remote moved from the SCH to the TCS today. This was the first time the module was moved with the framework for the cage in place. The ion gauge
on the service cap is closer to the cage than anticipated and as a result the pins for the gauge were sheared off. Discussion as to how to repair the gauge
(both short term and long term needs to be had). We will try and rough down the TM tonight, it is not believed the vacuum will be affected. |
Wednesday, February 06, 2013, 14:34, Bevan Moss, Conditioning Station, Development, TM4, CS Test Target #1, 40kV All Common w/o Water Test 
|
Today the module was biased to 40kV in the conditioning station. The current draw was 0uA. Sparking started at 27 kV. I have attached the recording
from the strip tool of the vacuum while we were testing. After consulting Pierre if we should take the module to a higher voltage it was decided not to.
The purpose of this test we to check the interaction between the module, cover, new cooling line, EE and EINZEL cables. This test was considered a success |

|
Today while putting the cover on the cord that goes to the controller was bumped. This bent the connector down and caused a vacuum leak. I tried
to tighten the bolts in the hope the leak would go away but it did not and I sheared one of the bolts off. David is inquiring with Edi if the pump can
be repaired or if it needs to be replaced. The good news is that the interlocks work exactly as planned. Upon detecting a leak they shut the turbos down |

Today David and I moved the module from ITE to the SHC. Move went very smoothly, David operated the cameras and has had basic training in how to
manually lock out the controls. |

|
Dave Morris and I investigated the Faraday Cup today. It was found to be plumed in the wrong direction (fails in). This is not an issue for the
conditioning station as there is nothing down stream from the cup. Dave will change the controls to reflect this. |

TM4 with CS Test Target #1 was moved from the SHC to the Conditioning Station. All went well. The welding cables came a little close to the cage,
David will bend them in more in the future. |

Over the weekend Turbo pump one failed. It was attempted to restart the turbo in soft start but that also failed. Although the Vacuum was good
enough to operate both Turbos are required to pass commissioning. As such the pumps were turned off at ~10:00 today. Venting started at 12:00. |

The Model of the Power Supply (PS) is TSQLG 480-20/1500 and serial number is 2755.02.01.01.09.
We went to test the PS and supplied the required 480V and turned the local switch to on. At this point nothing happened, the
controls screen didn’t light up nothing. We tried to run the PS in remote mode as that is what it had previously been set at and again there was |

Turbo Pumps have been started and are in normal operation. TP1 which has recently been replaced was started in soft start and had no issues. TP2
was started normally and tripped prior to reaching speed. It was left for a while and restarted. When restarted it was still at 17KRPM, it reached normal
operation. |
