Minutes of feedthrough meeting of 26 June, 2000.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Present: GV, Pof, PB, MLenc, AD, TH, MGF, RM, RL

*) Milestones:

	- Four T-piece glands arrived from CERN on Friday
	  afternoon after having been repaired by the CERN shop.
	  Tests are underway to recheck the leak rates.

	- The BoltRings have been cleaned with compressed air
	  and sealed in plastic bags.  Plywood has been ordered
	  for their storage/shipping crates.

	- PB's high-powered resistor test is up and running.

	- The last set of weld samples requested by TIS have
	  been completed by SM and delivered to UVIC.  A crate
	  needs to be built to ship them to CERN.

*) No Bellows Assemblies, Pigtails, or Vacuum Cables have arrived;
   we were expecting some of each of these any time now.  Recent
   word from FCI is that the Vacuum Cables have not been shipped
   yet from the California test facility.  I have requested an
   email notification as soon as the Vacuum Cables have been
   shipped, indicating the way-bill number and the number of cables
   in the shipment.

*) Tom Muller of BNL notified Terry that some of their pincarriers
   have developed leaks in the side wall near the weld lip after
   welding.  Tom will be visiting Glasseal to discuss the problem.
   Our entire lot of pincarriers was subsequently checked for leaks 
   in the side wall near the weld lip.  No leaks were found.  Terry 
   has provided Tom with the serial numbers of all of our pincarriers 
   to assist in understanding which batches of pincarriers might be 
   involved with the problem.  Tom believes that the leaks might
   be correlated with the CERN steal.

*) Mark presented some of his heater-plate wiring ideas to be
   presented and discussed at the LARG week.  Some of the issues,
   such as how to pass the heater wires through the pedestal, require
   input from those at CERN responsible for such matters.

*) Samples of the conductive mat material have been given to Chris
   Oram for rad testing. 

Agenda for next week: (PB to chair the next two meetings)
