Subject: Preparing for pumps on 

We need to connect the non-bakeable (max 80C) wire of the ion pump belonging to the vacuum division, and we also need to connect the two newly-repaired NEG cables to the D2000 modules. That requires partly opening the tent to gain access.

Set heaters temperature from 450 C -> 400 C - CARME floating TC temperature goes from ~98 C to ~88C.

Set heaters temperature to 350 C. Left to cool over lunch.

 

 Connected GSI vacuum division ion pump and IE514

Connected D-2000 upstream left/right with repaired cables

 

Flashed all ion pumps. Ion pump #4 was flashed a couple of times, but has now started arcing. The issue is not with the module - either the wire or the ion element are damaged.

Set heaters to 300 C. Left to cool a bit more overnight. Planning on NEG on tomorrow.
