Previous Day

Status waiting to receive a third side coax to finish building tower. Expected to arrive today.
0905 Pump mixture from 3He pump into dump: 775.9 mbar on G2, barometric = 30.11“Hg, adjusted dump pressure = 782.3 mbar
0925 Pump out LN2 cold traps with turbo pump (both at room temperature). Trap 1 was empty but Trap 2 had a few mbar in it.
0940 Pump out fridge contents with turbo pump through condenser speedivalve and still gate valve, and v8, v1, v2, v7, v2a, v5a.
1110 Received new side coaxes from SLAC. Opened and testing in clean room.

ST-3-8, Pin T1 was slightly bent, straigtened with tweezers.

1130 Place ST-3-8 into purge cabinet with protector boards attached. Place extender board onto tower side of ST-3-3 and attach ST-3-3 to tower.
1140 Perform tower electrical check on DIB3.

All pins → Ground <1.0nS (Except for LED pins)
1155 This behavior for the DIB3 LEDs on G106a appears to have been known since at least Run 39. Proceed with installing adapter plate.
1400 Begin installing tower. Attach to 30mK can.
1515 Begin cryocleaning mixture through LN2 Cold Trap 2
1525 Strangely G2 was completely flat at 982.8 mbar, G1 fell steadily from 870 to 790 mbar. Seems like the trap is impeding flow. Pump trap to dump to less than 0.2 mbar on P1.
1540 Take LN2 Trap 2 out of bath to let warm
1630 Trap 2 pressure leveling to around 20 mbar on G1 (trap still somewhat cool to the touch but above freezing).
1635 Pump out Trap 2 with 4He pump
1640 Put Trap 2 back into LN2 bath and open V12a and V4 to do some passive cleaning
1700 100mK stage and 600mK stage finished in tower installation
