For this week

Test Coordinator : Stephane Equipment Support: Guy

JUST 05 Magnets Tested

3 Dipole (Stripped)

1 Arc SSS (373) (Stripped)

1 600 (622- 325 Hrs) (Standby)

MB1406 not tested as HV failed at the beginning.

Special measurements on SSS525 will be finished by tomorrow.

SSS674 reached ultimate this morning. It has to be assigned high priority so as to facilitate testing of S4-669 on D1, before the vacation

Halik informed that 1 Arc SSS and 1 Q8/Q10 will be available from 904.

Special MM with Hall Probe will be done on MB2271. Stephane requested equipment support to learn to do this measurement as Nikolas Samut would not be available from January 2007

Stephane will give OP team the test program for S4-695

MB2413: HV insulation at cold Dipole-All QH vs gnd failed at 3050V. However as it had passed for Dipole vs gnd and All QH vs gnd Eqp. Supp. asked to proceed. Accordingly the magnet was signed for stripping. Richard suspected weak insulation, so Stephane suggested Salem to inform Andrez about the problem

MB2415- V-taps of the diode were reversed. It was rectified by eqp. sup. by interchanging the connections in the IFS box. NC to be opened by Salem

General:

On friday there will be a strike by CERN employees. However Stephene will be available.

From January 2007 there will not be any night shifts for OP team. The morning shift will start from 07:00 to 13:30, the afternoon shift will be from 13:30 to 22:00. However the last quench is to be performed before 21:00.

Have a nice week
