BSC1 Annulus Ion Pump

The annulus ion pump for BSC1 has railed again, this morning at ~3am PDT. There was no change in the internal pressure measured at PT120B (BSC2).

Gerardo and I had swapped the pump controller, see alog 85975, after it had railed previously.

We will continue to monitor and troubleshoot during the next Tuesday maintenance. Pump likely needs replacement.
