Checking HVAC Fans - Weekly FAMIS 39863

Closes FAMIS 39863. Last checked in alog 89728.

EY_FAN2_470_1 (green) and both EX fans are going through some quiet lapses that were only seen once in the last alog. Nothing is near the "noisy" threshold though.

Plots attached.

Zone4s' temperature has dropped rapidly over the past half hour. Minute trends look like it may be rebounding but I can't tell yet.

For FAMIS #39861: Fans look mostly flat (Corner's FAN5 looks faintly noisier the last 1.5 days).

Return of the Kings

"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife"

- Jane Austen, opening line of Pride and Prejudice

But unfortunately for both us and them, sometimes those men are winged termites in the Optics Lab.

As Elenna and I were cleaning up our work in the back optics table this afternoon, we noticed a few winged termites, and ended up finding maybe almost 10 in total walking around on the floor in the back area of the optics lab near the wall mounted cabinets between the two cleanrooms. We got rid of them but couldn't find where they had come from. I'm wondering if they're maybe coming from an opening under one of those cabinets? Last year this happened but those came out from under the flow benches along the wall - not sure if this is part of that same colony that survived or a different colony.

Yesterday (Mar 26), as we cleaned up after BHSS work, I looked around for more termites. I found only one in the corner of the lab near a circle of power cables, just underneath where we hang BNCs and other cables. It appeared to be dead. Not sure if it's new or I missed it the day before.

HVAC Fan Vibrometers Check

Closes FAMIS#39854, last checked alog88973.

For the CS:

MR_FAN4_170_1 had a slight noise increase a little over a day ago, MR_FAN2_170_{1,2} are both seeing lots of spikes.

For the OUT buildings.

The EX fans all increased in noise around 15:30 UTC this morning.

End X air handler vane position setting
The vane position of the fan inside air handler 1 at End X was changed from 100% to 70% in order to increase the airflow through the fan. This was changed to more closely match the settings at End Y. End Y temperature trending has been consistent while End X has had moderate variation in comparison.

Closes FAMIS#39852, last checked 88845

Corner Station Fans (attachment1)
- MR FAN1_170 has been relatively loud since it was turned on on Tuesday.
- All other fans are looking normal and within range.

Outbuilding Fans (attachment2)
- MY FAN1_270_1 is quite noisy, but since it's at the midstation I think that's okay
- All other fans are looking normal and are within range.

EX Chilled Water Supply
At 9:42p local I received a cell alert declaring a loss of chilled water supply at End X. After remotely logging into FMCS I observed that the lead chiller (1) was in alarm and the CH-1 supply temp was hovering around 54F. I've since toggled the lead lag, and manually forced chiller 2 and chilled water pump 2 on. Given the low outside air temps and the lack of temp demands that vent require, this should suffice until all return from the break where we can investigate further.

Mid Station chilled water trending
I ran the pumps at the mid stations this morning to exercise the bearings and seals. This will result in an increase to the glycol loop temperatures in the trending. This increase will return to normal by the end of the week.

Mega Cleanroom Powered On
At approx 8am the cleanroom above HAM 5/6/7 was powered on in prep for vent activities and initial cleanings. As to be expected, zone 4g temp has spiked. No action on behalf of FAC is required at this time.

Checking HVAC Fans

Famis 27573 Vibration Sensors To Gauge Health Of HVAC Fans Site 

H0:VAC-MR_FAN6_170_1_ACC_INCHSEC seem to be going up in that few days especially the last 24 hours.
This is also the case for H0:VAC-MY_FAN2_270_2_ACC_INCHSEC in the last day saw a fairly large increase in noise.
