We repeated the test (moving the chiller's temperature by half degree), having a look at others signals: the effect (100Hz sidebands moving) is well visible in:
Worth noticing that:
Conclusions:
No definitive conclusion yet, we know where the problem begin (TCS chillers) and where it comes (DARM), but the path is unclear; could be a magnetic coupling, could be an "electrical" coupling (voltage drops un UPS line). For sure having this kind of signal (100Hz sidebands) well visible in a distant room (EE_room) as "voltage drop" between ground is not a good sign. We plan to repeat this test after all EE_room racks have been grounded (they are not, for the time being).
Many other unwanted signals seems present as sidebands around Mains harmonics, and these could have origin from other powerful devices (e.g. the beam-dump chiller) in EE_room, affecting DARM all togheter.
We identified the TCS chillers and some of the EER equipment (likely the laser beam dump chiller or the pumping diodes chiller) as responsible of the inner and outer sidebands of 100Hz and 200Hz measured by the CEB UPS voltage sensors: see 44151 and 44154.
Here some plots to correlate this noise to recent ITF data (this essentially confirms the plot by Robert Schofield, adding details):
