We have repeatedly had issues with blocked feed throughs on both Sector 5 and Sector 6. Spent the afternoon cleaning out feed throughs on both chambers. We will use nitrogen to clear out any debris after the process is complete. There is a Field feed through at 167-11 in superlayer 1 that is completely blocked by glue inside the chamber. We also spent considerable time removing small metal pieces from inside Sector 6. They appear to be tiny circles of metal. Pictures of all of the above mentioned issues will be taken and uploaded tomorrow.
