Pressure around 140 mTorr. The pressure started increasing early November 2nd. Will continue to monitor.

Tuesday, November 12, 2013, 09:51 UPDATE
 Backing pressure further increased to ~ 350 mTorr over the weekend. Vacuum group has been informed and will replace the pump this week.

 

 The backing pump (TSG:RP1) was replaced yesterday by Anthony Ip. Backing pressure is down to 1 mTorr on TSG:CG1A

Finished evaluating emittance rig installation.

Friday, January 24, 2014, 14:25: Roughing.

The Cu-tubing for cooling the Turbo pumps broke off during disassembly. New ferrules could not be located on site and may have to be ordered.

The system will be left under roughing vacuum over the weekend.


Wednesday, January 29, 2014

Cooling for Turbo pumps reconnected.
