Finished installing the changing room.  The changing room is used to put on clean room apparel prior to entering the clean room.  A HEPA filter is placed on top of the room and set to high in order to blow particles off a person before they enter the clean room.

The doors into the clean room have been sealed by temporary walls for the renovation project which will start in the room next door.  Below is a picture of the wall which has sheet rock on top of a plastic cover surrounding metal studs.  The wall has been calked on the outside to prevent dust from coming through.

A strip door was installed between the cleanroom area and the beam lab counting room.  Several ducting pipes that are connected to adjacent rooms were also sealed off.
 
  
69 Guard wires were strung today.
 
  
The graph below was drawn at 6:32 pm on 9/29/11.  It seems time stamp 0:00 corresponds to 6pm.  It appears that the stringers enter the clean room around 8am (14:00) and warm up the clean room by almost 1 degree.  TEMP4 is a thermometer on the vinyl wall right next to the chamber that is currently being strung.  Temp1 is the middle of the clean room.  Temp2 and Temp3 are on the opposite wall to the drift chamber currently being strung.

Chamber grounding (ground through HV cable)
  
We started stringing guard wires for SL1.  Total wires strung today: 51.
+
===Chamber operating procedures===
  
 +
1.) post amplifier in VME crate had 150 mV peak-peak noise
  
[[File:09302011_2CLAS12R1StringingTemp.png| 400 px]]
+
2.) Stop using the current ADB crate
  
:Average Temperature for the First week of stringing

[[file:100411_DFStringing1.jpg | 400 px]] [[file:100411_DFStringing2.jpg | 400 px]]
+
4.) Discriminator level for signals:  
  
90 guard wires were strung today.
+
5.) Need to lower the HV trip current back to 1 microA.  May increase it to 5 micro Amps when burning in.
  
All guard wires have been strung.
+
6.) Change trip speed to 0.1 sec
  
The chamber has been rotated and we will start stringing field wires tomorrow.
 
  
[[file:10042011_CleanroomTemperatures.png | 400px]]
 
  
==10/5/11==
 
  
48 field wires were strung today.  Tension measurements were made for all of these wires also.
+
===ISU Tasks:===
  
Temperature measurements are odd and are a concernWill continue to monitor this. Possibly the heat created by the magnet and it's proximity to the temperature sensor?
+
1.) Install cover on top of chamber, top could be made from home insulation sheets that has been covered with paper or plastic sheeting.
  
[[file:10052011_CleanroomTemperatures.png | 400 px]]
 
  
==10/6/11==
+
2.) Install 208 Volts for ADB crates that will be sent by JLab to replace the one they have given us.
  
49 field wires were strung today as well as 8 redo's.
+
3.) solder jumpers onto HV boards, install them in January when George returns
  
[[file:10062011_CleanroomTemperatures.png | 400 px]]
+
4.) Mylar window on S1 chamber needs to have some tape and weather stripping redone or modified
  
==10/7/11==
+
5.) Get allen head 3/32 for torque wrench, remember to replace brass screws if they are removed for some reason
  
[[file:10072011_Marcie_Stringing.jpg | 400 px]] [[file:10072011_Mallory_Stringing.jpg | 400 px]]
+
6.) do not do final instrumentation, purge covers, and dust covers on the last 2 chambers until checking with JLab, the may want to survey them after delivery
  
63 wires were strung today.
 
  
[[file:10072011_CleanroomTemperatures.png | 400 px]]
 
  
14:00 on the temperature graph is 8:00 AM.
+
===JLab Tasks===
  
==10/10/11==
+
1.) What are the fault conditions on the STB board when the power supply exceeds voltage/current
  
In an effort to increase the speed and accuracy of the tensioner, I (Larry) made this little do-hicky:
+
2.) Need signal cables with strain relief connects that have the shielding wrap grounded on the STB board but not grounded on the DAQ cabinet
  
[[file:10102011_Do_Hicky1.jpg | 400 px]] [[file:10102011_Do_Hicky2.jpg | 400 px]]
 
  
This is a [http://www2.fiskars.com/Products/Sewing-and-Quilting/Sewing-and-Quilting-Tools/Rulers-and-Cutting-Mats/6-x-24-Acrylic-Ruler-Coastal-Colors Fiskars 6"x24" Acrylic Ruler] with black foam board glued to the backside.  I used a heat gun to bend it 90°.  I was just trying this out to see how well it works.  If my stringers like it, I will remove the foam board and paint the backside black.
+
3.) George will send purge covers and come back in January to install
  
The lines on the acrylic ruler allow a stringer to more easily position the wire perpendicular to the end plate when adjusting the pulley used for hanging weights.
 
  
The glossy finish might pose a problem, but we will give it a try and see how it works out.

[[201301_R1ProgressRep]]
  
Temperatures this afternoon climbed up to 71.7°.  This does not show up on the 5 minute average, so here is the 1 minute average.
 
  
[[file:10102011_CleanroomTemperature_1.png | 400 px]]
+
=February 2013=
  
Temperature sensitivity (%Delta;t) was changed to ±1° at around 12:45 PM.  Will continue to monitor this.
+
[[201302_R1ProgressRep]]
  
Changing the sensitivity caused our average to drop about 0.5° but the amplitude of our fluctuations decreased.  The minimum is lower than I would like, so the sensitivity is being changed back to ±2° at 3:20 PM.
+
=March 2013=
  
[[file:10102011_CleanroomTemperature_2.png | 400 px]]
+
[[201303_R1ProgressRep]]
  
The HVAC filters showed up this afternoon, so this is being replaced.  I will continue to monitor temperatures tomorrow.  If temperatures climb back up to 72° again, I will change our sensitivity back down to ±1° as well as change our temperature setpoint to 69° (up 1°) in an attempt to keep our average closer to 70°.
 
  
63 field wires were strung today.

[[File:PCR_Temps_Sept2012-March2013.png | 200 px]]
  
==10/11/11==

+
[[201305_R1ProgressRep]]
  
The temperature setpoint is being increased to 69° in an attempt to get our average to 70°.  This was done around 9 AM.
+
=June 2013=
  
This change did not work as hoped for.  This 1° change in our setpoint increased our cleanroom average temperature to 71° with fluctuations of ±1°.

There was no stringing done this morning.
+
=August 2013=
  
The temperature set point was changed back to 68°.  The average temperature did not drop back down to 69°, but only dropped down to 70°.

[[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_4.png | 400 px]]

[[201309_R1ProgressRep]]
  
Stringing resumed once temperatures stayed within acceptable levels (~11 AM).
 
  
Average temperatures remained right at 70° with ±1° fluctuations the remainder of the day, even with both of us stringing and measuring tensions.
