Tightened all flanges.
Added Pirani gauge and third IE514 to interaction chamber.
Stated pump down. Around 100 mbar on Interaction chamber Pirani gauge very loud metallic noise is heard. Found bellows between CARME and interaction |

|
07:50 Small leaks (near the motors and upper valve) were detected in the tent which were covered with Al foil.
08:10 ML changed the baking temperature to 120 degrees.
09:40 Since the bottom of CARME is cold, due to uneven distribution of heat, baking is stopped. |

12 October
10:00 Bakeout temperatures stable. Pressure on the backing line is 3e-7mbar which is the lowest we have achieved on the backing line so far.
Vessel pressure can't be measured at the moment as temperature exceeds the max operational temperature of 80C. |

|
All 8 FEEs have been installed in their holders.
The damaged feedthrough does not have the D-connector on the adaptor board inserted into the falnge but the FEE is connected to the adaptor board.
FEE's were carefully installed, with one person inserting FEE and another making sure FEE was straight and on the correct pin positions. |

4 FEE holders installed on CARME. Mounting procedure devised due to limited working space to install.
Mounting procedure:
>Install FEE holder mounts (image 1) onto feedthrough flange |
