Following overnight pumping by Leybold turbo pump
09.12 6.26e-8mbar, 2.8e-6mbar (RGA station), leak rate 5e-12 mbar.l/s
09:52 6.08e-8mbar, 2.8e-6mbar (RGA station), leak rate 8e-12 mbar.l/s
10.10 6.02e-8mbar, 2.8e-6mbar (RGA station), leak rate 8.5e-12mbar.l/s
KM says leak cart currently isolated CARME chamber + RGA cart - no He
has been used around chamber this week so figure represents noise.
10.36 5.94e-8mbar, 2.8e-6mbar (RGA station), leak rate 4.7e-12 mbar.l/s
10.40 KM isolated RGA station (@RGA station) from CARME chamber to replace current RGA (FC sensor) with a more sensitive RGA (with multiplier + FC sensor)
CARME vacuum pressure (with no backing) will rise somewhat during this process
11.17 1.35e-7mbar
11.20 New RGA install complete, backing line opened, CARME pressure recovers in < 10s to 5.83e-8mbar
14.08 5.59e-8mbar, 2.7e-6mbar (RGA station), leak cart disconnected (by KM)
Cables for neg and neg ion pumps connected with cables trailed out of the octagon through back and front of the octagon. Neg-ion pump connectors are labelled with Kapton
tape to prevent confusion with neg connectors. Baking jacket has been partially constructed and will be completed tomorrow. |
