Just a quick check at the Test Stand:
1. The system operational ( white out not present ) with TSH:TBHT heating in progress.
2. Started the Archivers: for Source and Optics. |
|
Thursday, June 28, 2012, 17:00, Pierre Bricault, , LP-FEBIAD, , , , , In progress, Cathode heater reached its value of 230 A and stoped. good test.
|
Now ramp cathode current up to 290 A. The total current out is 1.e-7 A.
|

Thursday, June 28, 2012, 17:18, Pierre Bricault, , LP-FEBIAD, , , , , In progress, Leave the cathode heater at 275 A overninght.

Friday, June 29, 2012, 08:57, Pierre Bricault, , LP-FEBIAD, , , , , In progress, Continue cathode heating
|
This morning the pressure was 3.5E-7 T. Current at 275 A is 30nA.
Continue cathode heating to 290 A during meeting.
Start seeing some electron current from the cathode around 275 A. |

Replaced grid containing ring (target side) with new ring. No contact between target and anode measured in lab.
NOTE: While closing up the VCR fittings the tube rotated causing the tube to flatten in a bend. This may reduce water flow on the heat shield circuit.

Found some water tripping in front of the high voltage power supplies rack from the water lines at the ceiling. Plastic sheets have been put on top of
the racks and MCR has been informed. |

The current at the magnet power supply TMS:MB1 shows fluctuations every 1-2 minutes. The same can be seen in the Hall probe read back and in the beam
current at Fc6. |
