Previous Day

Setup DIB1/3/4 → 3.2 MHz filters 2/3/1 → cable 3/1/2 → gender changer 3/?/2 → HVConn 1/3/2 → HV 1/2 → DCRCX(4)/DCRC50(3)
DCRC33(2) → 1kV power supply → HV input


Lead poly shield is erected, N/E/W walls complete, no poly or lead on S wall.
1132 Tower = 39.2 mK
1137 We had high HV leakage return yesterday. Left it at 0V overnight. Maybe it got better? Remotely set HV=350 V using HVchange_0_to_350.msl
1142 Vleak rises slowly, then jumps from 20 mV to 110 mV at around HV = 145 V. Rises linearly from there.
1149 Sequence finishes, HV/Vleak=350 V/0.624 V
1152 Turn down HV using HVchange_350_to_0.msl
1209 Relock DCRC4 pD, but otherwise all channels look good.
1212 Start 4x background series at HV = 60→120V @ 2.42 V/min (25 min duration) with 1 minute 15% prebias
CDMS detector: Driver Gains = 1x, DCRC4/3 QET biases = (440/380/430)/(500/460/410) uA, Front-End Gains = (2/2/3)/(5/2/5)
1000 BOR randoms, trigger on DCRC4pA/B/C threshold = 6/6/6
use sequence HVdrift_4x60V_2p42VPM_prebias_15_1_dur_25min.msl
1216 Vleak peaked at 31.8 mV, now around 3 mV during drifting.
1246 Fill LN2 cold trap full.
1300 Vleak did jump up to 71 mV near the end.
