We have reached 200 Torr at 12 hours of slow pumping speed. Kiwamu stopped the pumping for 11 hrs last night .and I restarted it this morning.
Now RV1 is fully open with butterfly valve in place and the second roughing pump RP3 was just turned on.
How to stop pumping:
1, close RV1 manual valve with torque wheel
2, close V3
3, turn off roughing pumps RP1 & RP3
4, disconnect metal hose connection to butterfly valve |
