| ==== Report for week of 6/18 ==== * We powered down the Type B racks as a precaution against possible loss of power during work on Tuesday, and later powered them up again. * We put a flange cover over the hole in the floor near the filter tuning area as a temporary safety measure. We later managed to entirely close the part of the hole that was not covered by the filter, by moving the filter towards the outside and using short floor panels from SR2 on the tank side. * We removed the SR3 PI from the filter tuning area and brought in the SR2 one. * We put magnets on the SR damper magnet ring to match the two Cu segments we were using. * We craned the SR3 PI into the AF, connected it to the security structure, and hooked the SF/... section and the SF damper magnet ring. * At first the F0 did not rise, and we realized that we had 2 kg less margin than we originally thought because we had not allowed for the PI-SF rod receptacle, the top disk which holds the yaw stepper mechanism, or the stepper itself. * However we were able to try the redesigned PI fishing rod, parts for which had just arrived. The optional strong CuBe spring in the new arrangement gave plenty of extra lift, so that we now have about 5 kg of margin. We did have to move the yoke to work around the problem that the CuBe spring tends to tilt the keystone, but we got it moving freely. We will also have to compress the blades some more to compensate for the extra stiffness, which caused the frequency to rise from 0.5 Hz to 0.9 Hz. |
==== Report for week of 10/29 ==== * SRM * Enzo realized that he could cover the next round of needed cables (all except geophones) with more cable soldering and did another batch. Because Yamamoto-san's lab was running low on isopropanol, Hirata-san washed them with ethanol at Mozumi. * Enzo worked out the optimum output resistance for the LPCDs to substitute for HPCDs with the horizontal IM OSEMs. The value was quite close to that already chosen for modified LPCDs by the cryogenic group, so we're going to standardize on 680 Ω. The modified LPCDs will have to be operated with the internal watchdog disabled for now because it was hard-wired to 2 mA. * Fabian finished adding the TM OSEM cables out to the rack and tested them. * We ran DC power and network to the second SRM stepper driver. We still need to get one more DC power cable to replace one we borrowed from SR3. We added the remaining steppers to the Python driver and MEDM screen. * We reconfigured the top of the assembly frame in preparation for the PI (removing crossbars and moving jacks down). * Hirata-san put the magnets on the SF damper and we hooked it to the PI, craned the PI into the assembly frame and joined it to the security structure. * We installed the F0-SF rod and flying saucer and suspended the SF/... section. We had plenty of spare load capacity, so we changed the CuBe spring to a weaker one and put 2.3 kg of ballast on the SF cap. This leaves 1.2 kg reserve for cables and an F0 yaw stepper mechanism. * We reduced the trim mass on the BF to compensate for the mass of the TM OSEM cables. * We measured all the bounce frequencies. * Hirata-san put magnets on the LBB damper magnet ring, put the pieces into the tank and assembled them into a sandwich ready for craning. He also did the fixed ring on the ceiling of the tank. * Fabian noticed that the DSub9 connectors on the PTFE cables are highly magnetic and need to be kept away from the magnets on the SF damper. This * SR2 * Hirata-san unclamped the LBB damper rings and suspended the LBB. It still needs ballast mass and is currently sitting high, with the blades at their upper stops. |
