BSC Assembly Status

(Corey, Eric, Fabrice, Jim)

BSCISI #2

Reamed out the Base Flanges for the Vertical GS13's.  They were installed via the forklift (see photos). 

Here are the Vertical GS13 serial numbers:

Corner1:  88 (not vacuum-ready, must be replaced!)

Corner2:  52 (not vacuum-ready, must be replaced!)

Corner3:  48 (not vacuum-ready, must be replaced!)

Trilliums were fitted with 2.5" long bolts (really need the 3" ones, but they're being baked).  Once the Trilliums were bolted down we installed the Horizontal L4Cs (one of which is a "bad" one which is not for use in our vacuum system and will need to be replaced. 

Here are the Horizontal L4C serial numbers:

Corner1:  34 (this is the bad one!)

Corner2:  30

Corner3:  10

 

Eric's installed the remaining Capacitive Position Sensors, so now all of those are also on the system.

Installed Horizontal GS13 Walls (Stage2), removed excess weights, removed Stage1-2 Alignment Pins, unlocked Stage1-2, balanced, adjusted lockers for horizontal alignment, and then called it good.  Tomorrow, we'll install Trillium Walls, run cabling, and address any final balance issues.  Then the system is ready for testing.

 

BSCISI#3

Installed & torqued down the third Blade Post (pulled out of oven recently).
