+
==12/3/12 Meeting Notes with Mac and George at ISU==
  
−
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.
+
===Construction Proceedures:===
  
−
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.
+
Chambers outside cleanroom should have covers to keep dust off buss wires
  
−
[[file:10102011_CleanroomTemperature_1.png | 400 px]]
+
Cap 113 (Brown one) needs to be replaced on STB board.
  
−
Temperature sensitivity (%Delta;t) was changed to ±1° at around 12:45 PM.  Will continue to monitor this.
 
  
−
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.
+
Need 2 amp fuse on 5 Volt supply to pre-amps.
  
−
[[file:10102011_CleanroomTemperature_2.png | 400 px]]
+
operate chamber STB voltage at 6 Volts
  
−
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.
 
  
−
==10/11/11==
+
Chamber grounding (ground through HV cable)
  
−
It appears that changing our HVAC filter dropped our average temperature to 69° with fluctuations of ±1°.
+
===Chamber operating procedures===
  
−
[[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_1.png | 400 px]] [[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_2.png | 400 px]]
+
1.) post amplifier in VME crate had 150 mV peak-peak noise
  
−
The temperature setpoint is being increased to 69° in an attempt to get our average to 70°.  This was done around 9 AM.
+
2.) Stop using the current ADB crate
  
−
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°.
+
3.) New nominal Voltages from Mac are
  
−
[[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_3.png | 400 px]]
+
S:F:G = 1300:-650:
  
−
There was no stringing done this morning.
+
S/F = 2
  
−
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°.
+
S/G = 5/7
  
−
[[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_4.png | 400 px]]
+
Signal output doubles every 75 Volts difference between sense and field
  
−
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.
 
  
−
[[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_5.png | 400 px]] [[file:10112011_CleanroomTemperature_6.png | 400 px]]
+
4.) Discriminator level for signals:  
  
−
Even with no stringing this morning, Marcie and I still managed to string 63 wires today.
+
5.) Need to lower the HV trip current back to 1 microA.  May increase it to 5 micro Amps when burning in.
  
−
==10/12/11==
+
6.) Change trip speed to 0.1 sec
  
−
Temperatures look much better this morning.  Screenshots were taken at 8:45 AM.
 
  
−
[[file:10122011_Temp1.png | 400 px ]] [[file:10122011_Temp2.png | 400 px ]]
 
  
−
It was just me (Larry) stringing today, but I still managed to string 42 wires.
 
  
−
My do-hicky seems to be working out well (see pics at [[#10/10/11 | 10/10/11]]).  It seems to speed up tensioning wires.  Marcie likes it as well.
+
===ISU Tasks:===
  
−
[[file:10122011_Temp3.png | 400 px]]
+
1.) Install cover on top of chamber,  top could be made from home insulation sheets that has been covered with paper or plastic sheeting.
  
−
==10/13/11==
 
  
−
63 wires were strung today.
+
2.) Install 208 Volts for ADB crates that will be sent by JLab to replace the one they have given us.
  
−
[[file:10132011_Temp1.png | 400 px]]
+
3.) solder jumpers onto HV boards, install them in January when George returns
  
−
==10/14/11==
+
4.) Mylar window on S1 chamber needs to have some tape and weather stripping redone or modified
  
−
98 wires were strung today.
+
5.) Get allen head 3/32 for torque wrench, remember to replace brass screws if they are removed for some reason
  
−
After measuring tension for an extended period of time, temperatures started to climb past 71°.  They still remained under 72°.
+
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
  
−

While working as the bottom stringer, I noticed my cleanroom cap making contact with the crimp pins near the nose.  This prompted me to find a way to prevent any further contact with the crimp pins.  My solution was to cut out a piece of my black foam board and attaching it to the rails of the endplate.  The crimp pins did not appear to protrude past the endplate rails and the double sided tape used to keep the board attached to the rails are about 2mm thick, so there shouldn't be any contact with the board and the crimp pins.  I also verified this visually.
 
  
−
[[file:10142011_Board.jpg | 400 px]]
+
===JLab Tasks===
  
−
This was just a simple, quick, and temporary way to solve this problem. A more permanent solution will be made once I am afforded the time.  Maybe a thin sheet of aluminum with 1/8" spacers.
+
1.) What are the fault conditions on the STB board when the power supply exceeds voltage/current
  
−
==10/17/11==
+
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
  
−
We had a late start today.  Only managed to do 63 wires today.
 
  
−

Due to the construction in the adjacent room and the increase in our particle counts, the decision was made to replace all of our pre-filters.  The decrease in our particle counts this evening almost caused me to change my mind and not replace the filters, but I decided to continue.

Most of the filters were dirty, but they were not too bad.  The old filters were the allergen type filters (1200 rating?) and they were replaced with 600 rating filters.  We'll see how our particle counts and temperatures are affected.
