tp3 forline pump replaced |
|
|
Alberto took 40m vacuum 101 class as we replaced the drypump at the annulus pump line.
He is still not authorized to use the monster 2 3/8" open end wrench that is 36" long.
The fore line pressure dropped to 20 mTorr from 1 Torr as the pumps were swapped.
Bob needs to be given credit for replacing the tip seal on this Varian SH-100 drypump
The ss-hose felt dry at the tp3 exhaust end but it was some what "teflon coated-placticky-
-almost oily" at intake end of the dry pump.
We'll have to replace this metal hose next time.
This is a reminder that the 40m vacuum operation is fully manual.
It requires two people to switch a vacuum valve and one of them has to be experienced. |
