Yi Wang | Problem | Cooling System | Possible power blackout on Nov 9 |
There was a possible power blackout on Nov 9 from 2 am to 4 am at builidng 182.
During the blackout, the vacuum pump for pumping the insulation vacuum of the cryogenic system was OFF.
Moistures were accumulated in the interlayer during these two hours, and now the vacuum insulation is not as good as before.
This causes some bubbles generating in the liquid delivery bellow and significantly reduces the fast recirculation speed. |

Yi Wang | Procedure/Operation | Cooling System | fast re-circulation |
Nov 04 in the morning, start using heat gun to blow the liquid argon in the open dewar, in order to rise the pressure difference between the TPC and the condenser.
Nov 04 fast circulating for 7 hours, pressure difference ~90 mbar
Nov 05 fast circluating for 10 hours, pressure difference ~90 mbar

Alex Kish | Procedure/Operation | Cooling System | Forcing recirculation |
Argon refills of the open bath are suspended in order to increase the deltaP between the TPC and the recirculation vessel, in order to force gas recirculation through the oxygen-sorption filter. The goal is to see S2 signal.
Currently the pressure is stable, fluctuations seezed over night. DeltaP very low, ~5 mbar.
Up to now (last check evening of November 1) sporadic noise with high amplitude and frequency ~50kHz was suddenly appearing when the FEBs are turned on, forcing to stop the data acquisiton.
Gas pocket: ON
Fields: ON
SiPMs: OFF
FEBs: OFF
DAQ: idle
LAr level in the open bath: >1/2 |
