Previous Day

1500 Fill LN2 cold trap full. MC/Tower/Cold Plate: 34.0mK/46.7mK/181mK. Still: 1.08K/ 45ubar. G1/G2: 83/92mbar. 1K Pot: 1.45K/2.2mbar.
Open 1K Pot needle valve a 16th of a turn to let more LHe into it.
1515 Commence LHe transfer (35.2%).
Looking back at pressure logs overnight, 1K Pot temperature, pressure, and G1/G2 pressures were all oscillating at the same rate. Now that I've increased the 1K Pot pressure, the oscillations have stopped, and G1/G2 have risen and stabilized at 105/114mbar.
1600 Cease LHe transfer (60.8%).
1605 Release pressure from Main Bath.
