TM2 has been disconnected in ITW (except vacuum lines). The vacuum system is still operating.

All water lines on TM2 and TM4 are purged for upcoming water lines helium pressure test.

Dan and I leak checked TM2 and ITW primary vacuum vessel. It was found a 1X E-7 atm.cc/sec leak on top T flange seal between TM2 and dump module in first time check. But it is not a repeatable leak. I checked the same spot and around area two more times with increased helium volume.It did not show up again. The first response could  be a helium drift to dry scroll pump. I will check it again later. The primar vacuum vessel on ITW and TM2 are leak free. 

Dan and I found a small  leak on ITW dump module  top flange seal. The leak detector got a response  to 7xE-9 atm.cc/sec when I spray the helium to west side of dump module top flange. We tested again, and got same result. The o-ring which seals ITW dump module top flange is deteriorating. It need to be replaced at a proper time. This is the only air to vacuum leak we confirm so far on primary and secondary vacuum vessel on TM2 and ITW. The module and station no other air to vacuum leak.

The TM2 water lines helium pressure tested started in ITW. The helium pressure 70psi. The result so far is: Window: good, GE: huge leak directly shoot over E-7 atm.cc/sec( need to be confirmed tomorrow), HS: good, EE: good, MSP: tiny leak which is response to 3-4xE-9 atm.cc/sec. Coil 1 : small leak which is response to 1.3XE-8 atm.cc/sec. Tomorrow, We will test the rest water lines on TM2which are TA+, TA-, Tube+, Tube-, and coil 2. And We will confirm the GE huge leak at the last.

Finished the helium pressure test on TM2 water line.70 psi helium, The result of the rests 5 circuits: coil 1: leak 7.2xE-8atm.cc/sec,Ta(+): small leak 1.7XE-8 atm.cc/sec, Ta(-) small leak 8.7xE-9atm.cc/sec,Tube(-) 1.5 x E-8 atm.cc/sec. Tube(+)small leak 3.7xE-8 atm.cc/sec.    We repeated the helium pressure test on GE. There is a huge leak on TM2 GE circuit. The leak detector shoot up to E-7  atm.cc/sec right after the helium was applied.It went up to E-6 range in less than 1 minutes.

TM#1 with UC#15 have been moved from the conditioning station to the west target station.

 All turbo -pumps are started.

After ITW HV test is done, TM1 has been connected to ITW. Water signals are checked in electrical room. They are good.

I did a ITW water signals interlock check with ISAC opp. They are checked once a year before first beam on.

2016-04-13 Same test is done on ITE also. Everything is good.

The ITW is configured to take proton beam.

I let isac opp switched off ITW turbo-pumps. The argon vent valve in electrical room is opened. The ITW argon venting will be started  soon.

TM#1 with UC#15 was moved back to the west station due to alpha concerns.

TM#2 with Ta#48 has been moved from conditioning station to the west target station.

TM2 has been connected in ITW by Dan.M and David.W. All turbo-pumps have been started. Everything is good so fine.

TM2 was disconnected in ITW and moved to SHC.

TM#2 with SiC#33 has been moved from the conditioning station to the west target station.

All turbo-pumps are started. Everything is good so far.

TM2 was disconnected in ITW yesterday and moved to SHC.

TM#2 with Ta#49 has been moved to the west target station from the conditioning station.

  ITW turbo pumps  have been started.

5shielding blocks have been transferred from ITE to ITE. ITW is configured to take proton beam.

TM#2 with Ta#49 has been moved from the west target station to the south hot cell.
