PSI level 23 bakeout

PSI Level 3 bakeouts ONLY occurred in FEBRUARY 2000

The conditioning periods on level 3 were all
relatively short as you can see below. The longest, on day 045, was an
hour, the next longest was 30 minutes on day 044. The rest were 5-10
minutes in length.  Hope this helps some Bill.

Level 2 Bakeout also in February 2000

Bill,
We had about a 10 hour conditioning on level 2 starting on day 42 at 0659UT
and ending at 1640 something. This is a higher power level than level 1 and
may give you a little more information.

Level 1/2 Bakeout times
Bill,
We did a level 1 conditioning (our low level) from about 1830UT
yesterday(day 40) to today about 1830UT. We are in level 1 again now. I am
re-evaluating our plan at the moment to see if we can improve it. Will let
you know, probably tommorow, if we will have any of the really long
conditioning periods that you want on the higher heater levels.

In the meantime, Peggy compiled a list of the times that the heater was on,
from which I have extracted the really long conditioning times. You can see
that in the past we have had several long level 1 or level 2 conditioning
periods. Perhaps you can take a look at your temperatures at these times to
see if there is an effect. The first column gives the heater level for the
times noted to the right. Some times start on one day and end on another.
