| Status | Warmup in progress. Warmed upto 10K yesterday. Will add exchange gas today |
| 1500 | MC(Cernox) = 15.51 K. Sorb = 46 K, MB = -1% |
| | Isolate IVC by closing the valves on the top of the fridge. Add a tubelength of He gas to the IVC line to bring it up to atmosphere to open it and connect the line to the CVJ |
| 1519 | Pump out the IVC line with the scroll pump and after pressure < 1e-1 mbar, switch it to turbo. If the turbo can take it down, it means that there are no leaks in the new connections that you made. |
| 1520 | Valve out the turbo to prepare to add exchange gas to the CVJ (as per Matt's notes). |
| 1525 | Let 3.4 mbar He gas into vacuum manifold. Then open cryostat vacuum jacket valve to let this into the vacuum jacket. Vacuum Jacket → 0.10 mbar. Recovery meter turning slowly. Close CVJ valve. |
| 1533 | Add a tube length of He exchange gas to the IVC (turbo and CVJ closed). recovery meter turning slowly. |
| 1547 | MC = 17.49 K and rising, IVC = 0.14 mbar. Add another tube length of exchange gas. Now IVC = 0.34 mbar |
| 1541 | Close IVC valves. |
