A short in the anode has developed during the heater ramp up. Increasing the current limit did not cure it. Start heater ramp down to investigate.

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.

Entry  Thursday, July 05, 2012, 18:02, Friedhelm Ames, , , , , , , Problems/Solutions, fluctuations in magnet current TMSMB1_2012_07_05.PNG
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.

Entry  Friday, July 06, 2012, 11:04, Friedhelm Ames, , , , , , , , source tripped off over night 
A big vacuum excursion tripped the source off at about 1am. The vacuum did not fully recover afterwards only down to about 1.3e-6T. Ne leak has been
closed and vacuum went down to 6e-7T within a few minutes. After the trip the current of the magnet stayed constant. Fluctuations may have been caused
by high voltage sparks.

Restarted the PC at the Test Stand.
Restarted the Archivers; currently pumping down the separator area.

Entry  Tuesday, July 10, 2012, 16:01, Anders Mjos, , , , , , , Problems/Solutions, Turbo replaced - cleaning chamber recommended 
A new turbo has been installed. Eddie said the other one had       crashed but not catastrophically. He recommends the test stand
be       wiped clean before pumping because there is a fine layer of       Aluminum dust on the chamber base.
