During the weekend 23-24th of October, the lab and ThomX suffered a power breakdown.
All the pumping systems had to restart.

as a consequence, the pressure on Monday 25th morning was 4.3e-9 and 4.6e-9 mbar in the left and right vessels.

this morning, the Tuesday 26th, the pressure is 1.4e-9 and 3e-9 mbar.
now, these pressures are compatible with the opening of the valves!

The regions where there is a drastic decrease is when the ionic pump was turned on.

Today in the morning the pressure was

  • on the left                    :  1.3*10^-9 mbar
  • on the right (sortie X)  :  4.9*10^-9 mbar

in the evening the pressure was
