| 0910 | Matt Fritts body temperature = 97.0 F |
| 0940 | Matt arrives in lab |
| 0950 | Turbo on IVC = 12 nbar. With Turbo valved out for 5 minutes, IVC = 0.74 ubar. |
| 0953 | Start filling IVC slowly with N2 |
| 1020 | IVC at 1atm. Remove clamp from KF flange at stripline elbow, we'll try again to improve the seal. |
| 1035 | Carefully polish flange surfaces with a piece of ScotchBrite, making sure to rub in a circular direction, never radially. |
| 1045 | Clean metal surfaces with methanol and wipes. Feel for any debris on o-ring and try to remove with fingers. Put thin layer of vac grease on o-ring. Reattach KF flange. Replace the clamp with a spare - this one seems to tighten better. |
| 1047 | Start gently pumping out IVC with Scroll Pump |
| 1058 | IVC pumping pressure falls below 0.1 mbar, switch to pumping with Turbo Pump |
| 1105 | Turbo on IVC = 0.25 ubar |
| 1110 | Leak check around stripline elbow KF flange and top of stripline elbow. No leak seen. Signal stayed around 60 pbarL/s. |
| 1105 | Turbo on IVC = 0.16 ubar |
| 1120 | Turbo on IVC = 0.12 ubar |
