Continuation of yesterday's test with c. 300mBar of He
in the TUDA chamber.

20.20 +/-15V preamp power OFF
FTS RS44 set point +20 deg C
20.25 Bolts securing downstream flange re-installed
- finger tight only
20.45 Vent TUDA chamber to air, i.e. chamber contains He & air
See attachment 1. Conclude that the preamps can be operated with
the FTS RS44 recirculating chiller set point +15 deg C with 300mBar
of He. The S2-1 preamplifier thermocouple indicates that the preamplifiers
are operating at about ambient temperature with little apparent effect
on gas pressure.
N.B. For vacuum operation, the FTS RS44 set point should be +5.5 deg C
