Contacted Graham W. (controls) to have a look. It turned out to be a limit switch problem. Removed and reinstalled limit switch solved the time out issue.

 by vacuum group. The pump was making more noise than usual.

The keensert has been worn out and will be replaced.

The keensert was re-tapped and the block re-installed. New bolts used for TGHT connection (2x). Swagelok T connections shortened (pluged).

Will went chamber to replace the filament.

 It seems the exhaust line is blocked which caused pressure to build up and eventually forced the exhaust tube off RP2 as RP1 was roughing down the vacuum chamber.

Vacuum group has been notified and will ask plant group to investigate.

Plant group has removed the blockage. Exhaust lines are reconnected to the roughing pumps.

Mico replaced the T's with copper tube and leak checked.

To recover performance

No supply of N through the piping due to work on the N tanks. Confirmed with Geoff Hodgson. ISIS supply is shut off. Using a bottle until the supply is returned.

The new controller (XGS-600) installed for IG6 use a different voltage to pressure conversion than the previous models. This causes a discrepancy between values in EPICS and the value displayed on the controller. An e-fault has been submitted.

Friday, December 18, 2015, 14:40: EPICS updated and restarted.

 The Swagelok fitting on the return side of the flow sensor for the HS circuit was tightened to stop the leak. See e-fault 8650
