Timing cable replacement
Advertising as October 4 for beam to Meson
Excavation on-hold due to “contract issues”
VH94 SMPS upgrade
Electricians haven’t started on 480V connection to the new supply. Old supply was prematurely scrapped, so no backup. Engineer suggested fallback plan of “kludging” that may “raise eyebrows with safety”. I prefer to delay beam turn-on if necessary to get electricians to do this correctly. Adam
Startup checklist Adam
Meson
MS2LCW pumps
Two pumps down, only one available Paul
M02 header leak repair
MSD to size pump and procure hose
Alarmable (ACNET) high-level float. Solution designed, parts ordered. Adam
Upstream M02 leak not repairable without draining system. MSD to tighten valve stem to see if it helps. May be very small, may need plan B catch basin as well (low to the ground though).
MS3 vacuum PLC progress: Mike
Paul waiting on minor parts
May have MT4 roughing valve status cabling issue, following up, may be confused w/ beam valve Mike Looking good, few more valves to double-check
MC6TGT as-found schedule. Gordon
Starting up with target in place.
Gordon: Alignment doesn’t need to move ion chamber or PWC to as-found the target. Alignment finished shooting target. Data received yet? Gordon to get results tomorrow.
Once alignment data received, need to re-install grate, target box, back-scatter scintillator. Gordon
MC6D-2 work wrapping up, manifold repaired, verifying flag connections, then tape/epoxy, then lifting onto stand, then alignment
Coordinating between Alignment and TD Gordon
Temporary heater installed to dry out magnet. Passed hi-pot this morning.
Should be able to get magnet back up in place by next week
Gordon to remove 480V extension cord so Jim Ranson can pick it up.
MC6D-4
Will operate with minor leak, can be contained. Check leak once MS2LCW system is back on.
F1 single-point LOTO: work finished. Verification and testing (Jensen) pending. Paul
Need to remove dehumidifiers (F2 and F3) once MS2LCW up and running. Paul
How many interaction lengths from vacuum in Meson? Mike
M01 rad fence needs straightened out, solution with FESS confirmed to not count as excavation (concrete supports) Tom
Startup checklist Mike
SWIC cable ringer to verify, in particular, MC6WC at low intensity (1E6), check cables Mike
Can SWICs run in Proportional mode (higher voltage, PWCs?), does polarity matter? Adam
Double-check Tom’s optics for MCenter 120 GeV mode Adam
NM
Vacuum
All pumps hooked up, downstream pump needs turned on
NS2LCW, backup pump (pump #2) pending
NS1LCW system status? Adam
Magnet labels/signs; Enclosure C finished, taking longer than anticipated. Adam and Mike
Some rack labels needed Adam
G2 single-point LOTO needs finished before beam Paul
Ranson expects to finish by 9/9
How many interaction lengths at this vacuum level in NM beamline? Carol
Latest time for safety system tests to be complete to start power supply tests? February 2022 is SpinQuest estimate for beam. Adam, waiting to hear back from Jensen about PS commissioning time needed.
NS2LCW sprayers developed a leak, Rick to get back to Adam and Kevin about timeline for colder water, help MSD manage manpower
