If not then epics will stop you from doing something stupid and you can't open valves and turn on pumps if the conditions are not right)</p> <p>Pump down:</p> <p>- Check manual valve to turbo pump and vent valve are closed.</p> <p>- All interlocks should be closed except PV5 and RV5.</p> <p>- Pump down using roughing pump first, BP5.</p> <p>- Open manual valve to roughing pump slowly.</p> <p>- Once CG5 is &lt; 250 mT you can turn on turbo. Close RV5 first then turn on TP5, the turbo pump, and open BV5.</p> <p>- Turn on PNG5 ion gauge when vacuum is good enough.&nbsp;</p> <p>- When PNG5 is &lt; 1.e-5 T it's ok to turn on cryo pumb.</p> <p>- For cryo pump CG5C has to be &lt; 150 mT. Turn on CP5 and open GV5..</p> <p>- If CG5C is not low enough in pressure then open RVC5 while monitoring TURBO V-550 monitor and making sure Power &lt; 55W. You should see the vacuum pressure on CG5C going down.&nbsp;Close CG5C is turbo power is &gt; 55 W and wait for it to go down to 27 W or lower. Repeat process till pressure is low enough to turn on cryo pump CP5/</p> <p>Cooling:</p> <p>- Turn on chiller by switching on and setting temperature to - 15 deg C or something low.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Venting:</p> <p>- Bring back chiller to room temperature. If broken then turn off and wait 30 min. Preamps should be turned off.</p> <p>- Close BV5 and turn off TP5, turbo pump.</p> <p>- Close GV5 and turn off CP5, cryo pump.</p> <p>- Turn off PNG5 ion gauge.</p> <p>- All interlock should be closed to the chamber.</p> <p>- Close manual turbo valve and check manual vent valve is closed.</p> <p>- Open VV5, the vent valve.</p> <p>- Wait 30 min for turbo to spin down 10%. Turn open manual vent valve slowly by observing pressure on manual meter and CG5 pressure gauge.</p> <p>NOTE: If you're venting while preamps are still a little cold use dry nitrogen gas when venting.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Some info on previous pump down and cooling times:</p> <p>https://elog.triumf.ca/Tuda/ISACII/185 (first pump down)</p> <p>https://elog.triumf.ca/Tuda/ISACII/188 (subsequent pump downs)</p> Encoding: HTML   ELCode   plain   Suppress Email notification          Resubmit as new entry Attachment 1:        TUDAepics.png  Original size: 683x779 Attachment 2:
