| At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Perry, Hirata-san): * We set things up again after the floor coating work. * We moved the PI into the second floor of the cleanbooth: * We cleared a path for the forklift (moving the portable cleanroom, worktable, power cables, vacuum pumps and other obstacles). * We got Saito-sensei to move the PI to the +Y side of the cleanbooth. * We washed and cling-wrapped a pallet. * We got Miyoki-san to disconnect the cables and curtain blocking the crane slot (and reconnect them afterwards). * We added some temporary crossbars in the top of the assembly frame and stored the SF cap on them to get it out of the way. * We craned in the pallet and set it up to bridge three floor joists. * We craned in the PI using Saito-san's adapter. * We couldn't find the original screws for the three PI transport plates so we substituted some others - fortunately there was no galling. * We had to connect the adapter to the crane with a sling because the ring for the hook was slightly too small). * We did a lot of cabling work: * We routed all the BF cables over the BF cap, up through the cable clamp on the SF-BF rod and up to the SF. (We had to redo a few because the Type 3 cable was at the flange end instead of the Type 1.) * We connected up the SF LVDT and FR stepper. * We started on rebalancing the BF (which had been perturbed by the weight and tension of all the cables). We got it rather better, but it needs more work. * We made another batch of anti-feedthrough adapters. |
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san): * Inspected LLB in tank - in a good position, but not very clean - apparent water spots and dirt. * Found the geophone adapter plates. * Retested SF FR stepper - still good. * Finally got SF LVDT working: * Found a short in the primary coil due to Al foil used for mechanical reinforcement at vacuum feedthrough connection. * Did a full calibration and found that linear range was too small (0.75 mm!) and did not cover nominal keystone height. * Decreased gain to increase linear range. * Adjusted the height of the yoke and secondary coil unit to center the linear region around the nominal keystone height. * Implemented velocity damping. * Found all parts for the LBB and damper rings. * Cu segments and some other parts were very dirty - wiped carefully for now, but should be properly cleaned before final install. * Outrigger parts for LBB have M16 thread cut directly into Al but should have had M16 helicoils. This is a galling risk with Ag-coated rod receptacles. Hirata-san organized rework. * Some special lock nuts are in short supply and are being borrowed from supply at ATC for next batch of BFs. * Made remaining two geophone in-air descrambler cables (total three). * Installed a thermometer supplied by Kokeyama-san on the tower around the BS tank. * Prepared the SF damper. * Designed a pattern of magnets for the two-segment arrangement of SF damper and laid it out on the magnet ring with the template. * Moved the Cu segments on SF cap by 30° (the cap had not been in the right position earlier). * Reinstalled PI: * Raised the PI with the crane and hooked the SF damper ring. Some of the rods did not fit the receptacles due to tolerance issue, but by going through a large number of rods and receptacles, we found three working sets. * Craned the PI onto the frame and suspended the SF/... section, this time with the hex cable clamp on the F0-SF rod. * Tensioned the PI yaw return spring, installed (but did not cable) the yaw stepper and adjusted the yaw of the SF/... section. We worry the return spring is not stiff enough. * Installed (but did not cable) the geophones. * Recentered the IP. The extra weight from the geophones (≈42 kg) and SF damper ring (≈17 kg) had brought the IP to near the point of instability, so we removed one arc weight (≈17 kg) and rearranged the other two in the top row to be symmetrical. * Added ballast to set the height of the F0 keystone. We now have about 6 kg in hand (due to removing one of the Cu segments for the SF damper). This should be enough margin for cables, temperature fluctuations etc. |

Past week report
At Kamioka (Mark, Fabian, Enzo, Hirata-san):
- Inspected LLB in tank - in a good position, but not very clean - apparent water spots and dirt.
- Found the geophone adapter plates.
- Retested SF FR stepper - still good.
- Finally got SF LVDT working:
- Found a short in the primary coil due to Al foil used for mechanical reinforcement at vacuum feedthrough connection.
- Did a full calibration and found that linear range was too small (0.75 mm!) and did not cover nominal keystone height.
- Decreased gain to increase linear range.
- Adjusted the height of the yoke and secondary coil unit to center the linear region around the nominal keystone height.
- Implemented velocity damping.
- Found all parts for the LBB and damper rings.
- Cu segments and some other parts were very dirty - wiped carefully for now, but should be properly cleaned before final install.
- Outrigger parts for LBB have M16 thread cut directly into Al but should have had M16 helicoils. This is a galling risk with Ag-coated rod receptacles. Hirata-san organized rework.
- Some special lock nuts are in short supply and are being borrowed from supply at ATC for next batch of BFs.
- Made remaining two geophone in-air descrambler cables (total three).
- Installed a thermometer supplied by Kokeyama-san on the tower around the BS tank.
- Prepared the SF damper.
- Designed a pattern of magnets for the two-segment arrangement of SF damper and laid it out on the magnet ring with the template.
- Moved the Cu segments on SF cap by 30° (the cap had not been in the right position earlier).
- Reinstalled PI:
- Raised the PI with the crane and hooked the SF damper ring. Some of the rods did not fit the receptacles due to tolerance issue, but by going through a large number of rods and receptacles, we found three working sets.
- Craned the PI onto the frame and suspended the SF/... section, this time with the hex cable clamp on the F0-SF rod.
- Tensioned the PI yaw return spring, installed (but did not cable) the yaw stepper and adjusted the yaw of the SF/... section. We worry the return spring is not stiff enough.
- Installed (but did not cable) the geophones.
- Recentered the IP. The extra weight from the geophones (≈42 kg) and SF damper ring (≈17 kg) had brought the IP to near the point of instability, so we removed one arc weight (≈17 kg) and rearranged the other two in the top row to be symmetrical.
- Added ballast to set the height of the F0 keystone. We now have about 6 kg in hand (due to removing one of the Cu segments for the SF damper). This should be enough margin for cables, temperature fluctuations etc.
