LD base leak rate, 0.0Xe-9atm.cc/sec. Helium pressure, 70psi. 5 minutes each circuit. No response on all water line except containment box window which has a VCR leak issue now. Window line leak rate, 2.3Xe-4 atm.cc/sec.

TM4 is moved from TCS to SW silo this morning. The move is good.

TM4 HS and window line are helium pressure checked at TCS. 70 psi helium 5 minutes. No response @1.2XE-8 atm.cc/sec. They are leak free.

TCS is argon vented. TM4 is disconnected at TCS.

Tuesday, October 01, 2019, 15:15: Started roughing.

Tuesday, October 01, 2019, 16:30: Started TPs

Tuesday, October 01, 2019, 16:34: All TPs at speed

Conditioning completed over the weekend by RIB operations. The shutter was left closed on the module, so no beam could be seen on the FC. Conditioning otherwise OK.

TM2 has been connected at TCS this morning. helium pressure test on Tm2 HS line is done. No leak.

Yesterday a leak was discovered in the ISAC-I experimental hall. The leak appears to be at the connection between the evaporator and the return water line. 1 in of water was lost from TCS:TK1. The water is currently valved off to prevent further leakage.

A fault reportt has been submitted to mechanical services - awaiting response.

Leak repaired by Mechanical Services. A brass fitting had cracked and was replaced with a galvanized fitting.

Helium pressure leak check on TM2 HS line at TCS is done. No leak. Also, Helium are sprayed to gas line adapter and fittings. No leak. TM2 is connected at TCS. Anode plug on TCS is connected to module 52pin connector. Water system is started. Vacuum pumping down is good. HV cover will be installed today.

Thursday, November 07, 2019, 10:35: Tested source to 30 A on TGHT, TBHT and COIL. ANODE at 100 V.

Tuesday, November 12, 2019

The FEBIAD source worked well over the weekend. The anode current limit was adjusted twice to stop voltage limiting. About 5E-8 A on the FC with TGHT=580A, TBHT=300A, ANODE=200V,150 mA, COIL=50A. Bias was conditioned to 30 kV

TM2 was disconnected in ITE yesterday.

 TM#3 has been moved from the south west silo to the conditioning station.

I started TCS roughing pump. TM3 TP1 and TP2 will be started tomorrow morning.

Using a long pole with a probe to spray helium on TCS vacuum seals and joints which are installed in  TCS service pit. No response has been found on leak detector during leak check. TCS is leak free.

TM3 TP1 and TP2 work  fine in past 4 days. During operation, The current draw on pumps were 0.7A to 0.8 A. TM3 will be moved back to silo tomorrow.

 TM#3 has been moved from the conditioning station to the centre east silo.

TM4 has been moved from SHC to TCS. No target on module. The move is successful.

TCS MP1 is started to rough out TM4 and TCS. TCS and TM4 will be under roughing only today and tomorrow. No plan to start TCS and TM4 turbo pumps this time.

 TM#4 with dummy target has been moved from the south hot cell to the conditioning station.

All turbo pumps are started. 

TM4 has been moved from TCS to SW silo. The move is fine.
