| A vacuum controll instruments are implemented in the cryostat. As a pump functions the HighCube 80eco, as a sensor a PKR 251 connected to a TPG361 is used, all from PFEIFFER Vacuum. A solenoid valve is implemented in the system to separate the cryostat from the pump. | A vacuum controll instruments are implemented in the cryostat.

| + | ===== Depressurization Checklist ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Ensure that cryocooler is off and cryostat is at room temps! | ||
| + | - Turn on main power switch on HiCube Eco 80 | ||
| + | - Wait for DCU to complete self-test of system | ||
| + | - Check if venting is off under parameter 012 “Enable vent” => off | ||
| + | - Turn on roughing pump: Select parameter 010 “Pumping station” => on | ||
| + | - Once we reach pressures !!< 5 mbar!!, select parameter 023 “ motor pump” and turn on turbomolecular pump | ||
| + | - Ideally, we want pressure to drop to lower 10^(-6) mbar range | ||
| + | |||

| + | |||
| + | ===== Pressurization Checklist ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Turn cryocooler off and wait for temperatures to reach ~ 280 K | ||
| + | - Turn off Turbomolecular pump and wait for RPMs to go to zero | ||
| + | - Turn off roughing pump | ||
| + | - Vent the system | ||
