Subject: T2 Thermistors Replaced 

The Inlet (T1), Outlet (T2), Col.A (T6), and Col. B (T7) thermistors at the T2 cooling package all gave intermittent faulty readings at various times between Oct - Dec 2014.  It is suspected that this was caused by a water leak in the area causing the terminals to get wet.  Inspection of the sensors revealed that they are in poor shape and that the readouts sometimes fluctuate when the probe or connectors are handled.  All four thermistor probes have been replaced.  The plastic interior of the Lemo connectors were found to be crumbling, and were replaced with crimp connections.  All T2 thermistors now appear to be functioning normally.  The T2 cooling package was started (with a bypass instead of the target assembly).  Flow through Collimators A and B has also been started.  The T2 package was inspected while running and no leaks were found.

Cyclotron Fault #7722 has been returned.
