free space beating installation

This afternoon we could start the work on ALS.

  • We switched off all the ALS is in the Laser Lab atrium (taking notes for the cabliing): 

1064 pd alim L.2.4 DCF 21   (lemo adc 3 orange)
534 pd alim L3.1 DCF 21     (lemo adc 6 blue)
West beating RF PD alim  L3.2 DCF 21  (sma cable 2 atr-piscina 15m  lemo adc 5 green)     fiber EIB atrium B 14m
North beating RF PD alim L3.3 DCF 21   (sma cable 1 atr-piscina 15m  lemo adc 4 yellow)  fiber EIB atrium A 14m

Box ALS Ctrl PD alim 1 L2.2 DCF21                (lemo adc 1 brown)
Box ALS Ctrl flip mirror alim 1 L2.3 DCF21

  • Installation of some of the optics on the EIB.
    • We removed extra weight from the EIB (3 flip mirrors from IBMS, for a total weight of 1.55 kg).
    •  Since we do not have the main beam pickoff available yet, we installed a fibered laser at 1064 nm for alignment and we started to install some optics.
    • The goal is to move the setup from the SHG box (pict 1 and 2) on the EIB (we cannot simply move the whole 40cmx50cm bench because its own weight is more than 20kg. Moreover the height of the beam in the box is 7.5 cm while on the EIB is 10 cm)

To be continued...

Today we installed all the optics on the EIB, without aligning them, in order to let Henk Jan rebalance the bench.

Pictures 1 and 2 show the optics added. The list with the corresponding weight are in the attached pdf.

The total added weight is around 12.2 kg.

We removed from the EIB some other optics no more needed (a mirror and a density). A beam dump of 960 g was replaced with a 255 g standard mount, so the total removed weight is around 750

mirror 960 g
beam dump 960 g
density ALS LMR2/M 150 g

By adding about 10 kg of counterweights we managed to get an acceptable poisiton of the EIB and managed to close the loop. Some actuators are quite at the limit. 
We will work on the balancing tomorrow with Henk Jan to put some of the counterweights on the bottom part and get a healthier situation for the bench.
