9:28 Fill N2 cold trap full, pump on IVC from 1.0 mabr, warm up leak checker
9:49 Electrical check at 77K, results are here
15:16 Isolate pumping station at 1E-6 mabr. IVC He background: <1E-10 cc/s (out of range)
15:56 Blow N2 out with G3=400 mbar
16:33 G3 dropped to 80mbar 16min ago. IVC leak: 3.4E-10cc/s
Dump pressure G2 = 700 mbar
16:36 Throughput test: 35 mbar/min at 550 mbar.
17:56 IVC leak: 3.4E-9 cc/s, pump out mixture.
18:46 Start to pump the He bath
18:52 P2=0.7 mbar, liquid is all out. Stop pumping and fill the bath with He gas
18:58 Stop fill gas at G3=120 mbar
19:23 Used 50kPa He3 exchange gas in the manifold → 1.4 mbar in NW40 hose → 6.3E-2 mbar in IVC
22:47 HP3478 didn't read correct temperature because of large excitation. Added additional 150kPa He3 exchange gas.
22:49 Pump out exchange gas
22:59 Fill N2 cold trap full
