| * Activity report for week of 12/12 * Mark, Fabian and Enzo continued BS Test Hang work: * We shipped BS mirror box parts to Shoda-san and components for a new LVDT cable to Hirata-san. * We posed for pictures of the BS by a team from National Geographic. * We installed the BF fishing rod stepper motor adaptor cable. * We tried to install the BF LVDT cable but first we encountered trouble routing it, and then several wires broke at the D-Sub end. * We laid 6 in-air cables from the tank to the PR2 rank for BF and SF picos, steppers and LVDTs. * We lifted the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS section to weigh it and check its balance. * It was 195.6 kg, which is 18 kg(!) less than the capacity of the SF. * There was a major imbalance in roll: with all four built-in trim masses moved up the +Y end, it still needed 270 g of extra trim mass to be level. This can probably be made up easily by designing the 18 kg of extra mass appropriately. * Unfortunately when we put the payload, the IM was slightly yawed and ended up on the horizontal EQ stop screws. This let the IM-BF maraging rod go slack, which disturbed the leveling of the IM (because every time it is picked up the maraging rod settles in a different place, giving a different suspension point). * We removed the end panels of the IRM to get access to the IM and rearranged the trim mass on the the IM to get it balance to bubble-level precision. (We still need to do fine pitch adjustment with the OL so that the BS is at the right angle, secure the trim mass properly and replace the IRM panels and OSEMs.) * Miyakawa-san and Yamamoto-san redid the cabling from the computer room to the PR2 rack and expected to finish by lunchtime on Friday. * Hirata-san * Did parts and fastener lists for the SR payload. * Did a 3D model with the SR suspension on the BS assembly frame (to help Mark make adjustments to the frame design). * Did 2D drawings of Fabian's concept for BS EQ stop parts. * Did a 3D model of a wire clamp with replaceable jaw parts (to avoid having to reuse parts with scars from pressure). * Did 2D drawings of a new wire clamps for on top of the BS and SR RMs. * BF issue * The BF has three issues that may or may not be related: * The keystone is sitting at an angle, which means: * The bottom of the keystone just barely clears the magnet yoke without rubbing. * The suspension point for the IM rod is offset, so the BF does not hang level, even with all built-in trim masses moved to their limits (an additional 270 g stacked on the +Y side of the cap is required). * The load capacity is slightly less than measured by Hirata-san during tuning at the ATC. * The frequency is rather higher than measured by Hirata-san. * Also, the BF/IRM/IM/RM/BS system is 18.1 kg light (195.6 kg) compared to the load capacity of the SF (213.7 kg). |
=== Type B (Mark) === ==== Report for week of 5/7 ==== * We inspected the wires and clamps involved in the wire break. * The scars on the clamp on the tungsten wire that failed had very different depths, with the one that failed being much deeper, so probably the clamp piece was not completely straight before tensioning. However one wire on the other side was also badly crushed and on the point of failing, so the tension was clearly too much. * We decided on new torque specs of 2 N.m for the primary clamps (down from 5 N.m) and 10 N.m (down from 20 N.m) for the secondary. The secondary clamp spec, for M6 screws, is now based on the LIGO policy of using the maximum suggested for the screw and the LIGO value for a coated 1/4-20 screw (100 in-lb = 11.3 N.m), and the primary clamp spec is derated by 2/3 from the spec for an M5 screw because the clamp pieces are recessed and only grip the wire at narrow sections along the edges, concentrating the force. * None of the screws showed any signs of damage. * All of the scars on the primary clamps were shallow enough that could reuse the clamp pieces. The tungsten secondary clamps were never tightened, and the outer pieces of piano wire secondary clamps were badly scarred but could be reused upside down. * We successfully rehung the SR3 and RM. In the process we noticed and fixed an issue with the assembly frame (due to an out-of-date number in the Mirapro diagram, the IM crossbars were set 3 mm too high, which would have affected the wire length). * We added the sections of the security structure below the RM and up to the BF. * We installed the TM OSEM cables and routed them up to the IM. * We installed the load gauge adapter and load gauge and prepared the IM/... section for weighing. * We removed the three cracked F0 blades from the PI #3 in the SRM, and prepared for testing prototype new blades in that PI.

Type B (Mark)
Report for week of 5/7
- We inspected the wires and clamps involved in the wire break.
- The scars on the clamp on the tungsten wire that failed had very different depths, with the one that failed being much deeper, so probably the clamp piece was not completely straight before tensioning. However one wire on the other side was also badly crushed and on the point of failing, so the tension was clearly too much.
- We decided on new torque specs of 2 N.m for the primary clamps (down from 5 N.m) and 10 N.m (down from 20 N.m) for the secondary. The secondary clamp spec, for M6 screws, is now based on the LIGO policy of using the maximum suggested for the screw and the LIGO value for a coated 1/4-20 screw (100 in-lb = 11.3 N.m), and the primary clamp spec is derated by 2/3 from the spec for an M5 screw because the clamp pieces are recessed and only grip the wire at narrow sections along the edges, concentrating the force.
- None of the screws showed any signs of damage.
- All of the scars on the primary clamps were shallow enough that could reuse the clamp pieces. The tungsten secondary clamps were never tightened, and the outer pieces of piano wire secondary clamps were badly scarred but could be reused upside down.
- We successfully rehung the SR3 and RM. In the process we noticed and fixed an issue with the assembly frame (due to an out-of-date number in the Mirapro diagram, the IM crossbars were set 3 mm too high, which would have affected the wire length).
- We added the sections of the security structure below the RM and up to the BF.
- We installed the TM OSEM cables and routed them up to the IM.
- We installed the load gauge adapter and load gauge and prepared the IM/... section for weighing.
- We removed the three cracked F0 blades from the PI #3 in the SRM, and prepared for testing prototype new blades in that PI. We removed a floor panel under the PI and set up the filter service trolley underneath it with a stack of masses for a dummy load.
