A large (water?) leak opened up with target close to max temperature. Water lines were pressurized in an attempt to identify the leaky line. The test yesterday were not conclusive and was repeated this morning with no He response. The vacuum did not improve over night.

Friday, May 01, 2015, 10:08: Venting

Left coil line removed.

Friday, May 01, 2015, 11:10: Roughing

Friday, May 01, 2015, 11:41: Started turbos

With the leak detector pumping on the left coil line, a large leak could be confirmed at the soldering site.

 Power supply did not work after high voltage conditioning. On Friday May 1st John Chow replaced the power supply with a 12 V 100 A power supply temporary while the other supply is being repaired. EPICS controls have not been adjusted.

Everything shut down, while EPICS showed everyhing to be on.

Controls group (Dave Morris) has reestablished contact. System is operations.

TSG section vented for Source Tray work

NOTE: COIL PS is a 100 A supply, thus actual COIL current is 0.5x COIL set point.

Changed the FEBIAD connector blocks to have copper tubes exit below the block. Extended ANODE wire to allow it to be wrapped around Cu-tubes and keep it further away from the GE lines.

Wednesday, May 20, 2015, 12:55: Vacuum excursion during beam tuning. Stopped turbos.

A leak was observed on the left coil conductor again. After inspecting the service cap, it was found that there was no water flow going through the left coil line due to differences in routing between the TM2 and the Test Stand source tray. A new coil line will be made and the water and electrical connections on the service cap will be reconfigured.

 Likely caused by the PLC. e-fault  8139

Wednesday, May 20, 2015

Dave Morris re-established contact with controls. (PLC IOC was down).

 The service cap has been reconfigured (colling and electric) to be compatible with the TM2 Source tray. Coil- is E & F , Coil+ is G & H.
