Chad and I did the leak check   on TM2 tube heater (+) water line  with blank off and C-seal  installed on  WB at South Hot Cell.The line was easy to pump down to 0.0xE-9atm.cc/sec and 0.0XE-4 torr on leak detector. Chad flushed lot helium around the water block (10 sec spray). No response had been found on leak detector.

I did the helium pressure  test  on TM2 tube heater (+) water line  with blank off(C-seal) installed on  water block at CS.The leak detector was hooked directly to the top of the module this time. So base leak rate and base pressure were at the bottom scale on LD. 30 -80 psi helium was applied to the D lines(both side)  with10 psi   increasing each time. There is no any tiny response hasbeen found during the test. The lines are perfectly sealed. Also i sprayed the helium on the top of the service cap .All  air to vacuum seals on the top are good either. See attachment pictures.

TM1 has been successfully moved from silo to CS. The CS vacuum system is connected  to TM1. Turbo pumps on TM1 and CS have been started yesterday afternoon . The starting of TM1 turbos was easy. The pumping down over night is good so far.

ITE and TM3 Turbo pumps have been started successfully yesterday. The vacuum reading on all ITE high vacuum gauges are at low E-6 range after one night pumping down which are good so far. There is no any sign of leak on BL2A window and the flange seal on ITE side. Yesterday afternoon, Ron , Edi ,and I  did a leak check on the ITE BL2A window flange(2aTunnel side). The leak detector was hooked onto BL2A in tunnel. Ron and I supplied helium from TH  to the helium test line(located in  ITE pit) which  we have on ITE BL2A window flange.   The helium test line end nozzle is just located under  the bottom of the 2A window flange. Edi was in BL2A tunnel checking the leak detector. We supplies 10- 15 psi helium 3 times to the test line. Each time for 10 seconds. The helium flow was checked twice and they were good. The LD base LR was 2.2xE-5 atm.cc/sec, After 70 seconds , The leak rate on LD was increased to 5.3 xE-5 atm.cc/sec. The leak rate reading  recovered after 20seconds. There is no obviously conclusion where the leak is. At that moment, Ron said, he and Edi would like to do  some further leak check  in 2A tunnel,and I went back to my job.

Restarted TM1 and CS turbo pumps after the power off. Everything is fine .

TM1 air to vacuum and water lines leak check at CS are finished this afternoon. The leak detector  is hooked directly to TM1 service cap so the base LR at LD is 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec. I sprayed helium to all air to vacuum seal on the service cap, also applied 70 psi to all water lines(except HS) for 2 minutes each. There is no any tiny response had been found on LD. So All TM1 water lines(except HS) and air to vacuum seals are leak free. The HS circuit can not be tested at this time since the VCR caps are not installed. The turbo pumps at CS and TM1 will be turned off before I leave.  See attachment pictures.

With TM3 located in ITE, All air to vacuum seals  on ITE primary and secondary vacuum vessel have been leak  checked with leak detector hooked directly on the TM3 service cap.The base LR :00xE-9atm.cc/sec. The ITE IG1 was 1.6xE-6 torr which was good. No leak has been found during the checking.Also, the TM3 water lines(except HS) had been  pressurized with 70 psi helium on each for 2 minutes. There was no response during the test. The ITE and TM3 are good on leak checking.See attachment pictures

I connected ITW  vacuum system to TM4. TM4 and ITW turbo pumps have been started successfully. The pumping down is good so far.

With TM4 located in ITW, All air to vacuum seals  on ITW primary and secondary vacuum vessels have been leak  checked with leak detector hooked directly onto the TM4 service cap.The base LR :00xE-9atm.cc/sec. The ITW IG1 was 1.16xE-6 torr which was good. No leak has been found during the checking.Also, the TM4 water lines(except HS) had been  pressurized with 70 psi helium on each for 2 minutes. There was no response during the test. The ITW and TM4 are good on leak checking.See attachment pictures

Chad and I leak checked TM4 HS line with Ta#42 target on the module. The leak detector base LR 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure0.0xE-4 torr. Chad applied helium to the joints, and flushed the helium around the target. No leak has been found.I will do helium pressure test on this circuit at CS later.

This Monday morning, Chad and I leak checked heat shielding circuit on TM3 with new target installed. The base LR on LD :0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec, base pressure 0.0xE-4 torr. Chad sprayed helium twice on the VCR joints. No leak has been found. The circuit will be pressured with helium at CS.

The helium pressure test on TM3 HS water line with new Ta target is finished at CS. The circuit is leak tight.. No any response on LD. See pictures.

I reconnected the entrance module back to the ITE station. All diagnostic cables, turbo- pump, air lines, water lines on ITE entrance module and BL2A3 window are connected back.

ITE target module flange seal has been replaced.The flan surface and the o-ring groove have been cleaned with Acetone before the new seal is installed. See attached picture.

ITE entrance module has been disconnected and the lifting yoke is installed for module move. See attached pictures.

ITE entrance module flange seal had been replaced yesterday.The flange and the seal groove were cleaned with Acetone before the new seal is installed. See pictures

ITE TM3, entrance module, and 2A3 window flange seals have been leak checked this morning after 2 new seals replacement.The LD base leak rate was 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec,  base pressure was 0.0 XE-4 Torr. I sprayed lots helium around the TM3, entrance module and 2A3 flange seals. No any response had been found on LD during the  spraying. All three flanges are sealed perfectly now.

Anders and I opened the HV cover in ITE and did  a visual check inside ITE HV  cover and top of TM3.Bill was with us and took the pictures. There was nothing obviously wrong when we opened the HV cover in ITE. We disconnected TM3 high current cables from ITE. Then we did an electrical check on TM3.The TM3 was good and passed megga test (465Mohm at 500V). The module was good and was separated electrically from the ITE at that moment. Then, we went back to electrical room and measured the resistance between bias and ground with ground bar opened and power supply disconnect. It was still shorted at that moment .We thought the short is located inside HV chase between electrical room and ITE. Then, we went back to ITE again and reconnected TM3 back to ITE. We wiped two blue nylon insulators between bias and ground, and no obviously spark track or dirty on them. We put HV cover back in ITE locked area, and went back to electrical room again.We decided to do a final electrical check there. We thought the short should be still there and we just want to confirm it . But this time the short  is gone. Everything goes back to normal.   The short disappeared and We test bias to 5KV and the current looks normal now.  

Chad and I leak checked TM1 HS and UC9# VCR fittings. No response had been found on leak detector during the test. I will do helium pressure  test on it at CS later.

TM1 and CS turbo pumps have been started. The vacuum readings are fine on all gauges.
