Wednesday, July 11, 2018, 15:37 Cathode is still "cold" , at 325A and 250V the anode current is 15 mA. The way to obtained more current and to have better emittances readings is to increase the tbht current

Fernando Maldonado | | LP-FEBIAD | | | 41790-10 | 44378-5 | Failed | FEBIAD efficiency measurements | Thursday, July 22, 2021, 17:43: Roughing
New argon gas bottle installed.
Thursday, July 22, 2021, 18:16: Turbos on.
Thursday, July 22, 2021, 18:25: TP1A timed out. TSG:CG1A is larger than TSG:CG1, that is the roughing lines are higher than the vacuum chamber.
Thursday, July 22, 2021, 18:27: Bypassing TSG:BV1 to open it.
Thursday, July 22, 2021, 18:28: Turbo at speed.
Thursday, July 22, 2021, 18:28: Bypass removed.
Thursday, July 22, 2021, 18:28: IG1 on.
Friday, July 23, 2021, 09:16: IG1 @ 1.69e-6 T.
Friday, July 23, 2021, 09:17: Waterlines open. No vacuum response
Friday, July 23, 2021, 10:09: While checking the gas connections I found out that inside the faraday cage there are a couple of connections missing:
Coil PS chasis ground disconnected
Resistor between A and C (tbht pos and tght neg) disconnected.
Friday, July 23, 2021, 15:29: Gas system taken out to properly install a new "tee" union.
Friday, July 23, 2021, 15:29: IG1 @ 1.34e-6 T.
Friday, July 23, 2021, 15:52: Power/ sources on.
Friday, July 23, 2021, 15:54: Auto-ramping TGHT/TBHT to 580 A/ 280 A @ 2A/min
Friday, July 23, 2021, 15:58: IV4 open.
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 13:07: IG1 @ 1.25 e-6 T.
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 18:34: BIAS / EE / EZL @ 30 / -1.5 / 13 kV. One spark when Bias reached 30 kV.
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 18:36: Two consecutive sparks. Lowering to bias 29.5 kV to let it conditioned there for at least 10 minutes.
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 18:46: Bias to 30 kV. No sparks.
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 18:59. No sparks. IG1 @ 1.16e-6
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 19:26: Anode gets current limited as of 2 V. Maybe there is a short somewhere else either inside the vacuum box, or on the service cap. Will check tomorrow
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 19:30: BIAS / EE / EZL @ 0 kV.
Saturday, July 24, 2021, 19:30: Auto-cooling to 0 A @ -2A/min
Monday, July 26, 2021, 09:00: IG1 @ 4.58e-7 T.
Monday, July 26, 2021, 09:17: No visible sparks
Monday, July 26, 2021, 09:22: Power sources off.
Monday, July 26, 2021, 13:20: After some tests I can conclude a couple of things:
- Anode/Cathode voltage power supply works fine and draws the right current for a 100 kOhm resistor.
- When all cables are disconnected from TBHT and TGHT F/Ts there is continuity between them and HV common.
Monday, July 26, 2021, 14:52: IV4 closed
Monday, July 26, 2021, 14:53: Turbos off.
Oops!, forgot to turned off IG1 but interlock did it for me :p
Monday, July 26, 2021, 17:19: After opening the vaccum chamber I found the portion of the capillary that goes to the target was touching the heatshield. Confirmed continuity with a multimeter.
Manually move it away and no continuity confirmed with multimeter.
FTs A-D recconected.
Bypassing anode interlock to check there is no short. Confirmed.
Preparing to close and pump.
