- Dave: now the techs are back and we are working on package #2. Tina and Mike are cutting/gluing new foils; Anatoly tested already the six new foil sets that we have received. Anatoly started gluing the daughter cards on the cathodes that were done before. Priority is to finish the two type-3 cathodes that will be needed in any package configuration. | - Dave: now the techs are back and we are working on package #2.

The package will be ready at the beginning of the next week. We decided not to install the cooling manifolds so far: we don't need them now and in case we need to open the package we will not be able to re-use the cooling tubes. On package #3 it turned out the splittings of the cooling tubes are in wrong places due to misinterpreting the drawings. Correcting this will take ~2 days but will do it later. |
| − | - Package #4 was assembled just before Thanksgiving | + | - Package #4 was assembled (the two missing cells) just before Thanksgiving and flushed with gas over the holidays: now oxygen is 151ppm. Vlad tested all the cells, not only the last two. Currents on cells from #6 to #2: 21/-3, 44/-4, 42/-3, 50/-3, 110/-100 nA. On cell#1 HV could be applied only to several HV sectors +/-HV1, +/-HV4, and +HV3. On the rest of the HV sectors we found shorts between the HV and the lower cathode and therefore we opened it today: as expected we found a broken wire, field 47. It is not clear when and how the wire broke. Certainly it was in place when the wire frame was installed in the package, but later after closing the package somehow it broke in the middle, the only explanation so far that it may have had a kink in this place (Casey). Also some wire frame deformation must be involved, say even on the pins it stayed deformed but after tightening the package got flat and the wire broke? The tension of the wire was 122g very close to its neighbors. |
