Class A

• New firefighter training yesterday morning
• Visit from Cheryl Saban tomorrow
• Visit from the french upper chamber senate thurs
• Door to ventilation room fixed
• CV
  • R-001 & R-002 -> fumehood ventilation was followed up last week, it seems it might not be a ventilation flow rate issue but instead the filters require changing
  • R-025 -> the fume cupboard extraction damper opening setpoint must be adjusted directly on the damper using a special device. On the hunt for said special device. At the moment nobody has this adjustment box (if we ever order it from the damper supplier).
  • nano alarm -> we know it comes from the pressure in the room not being maintained when the fume cupboard is in use. Tests ongoing.
  • target area sas ->delta P not showing correct values, need to follow up and see if there is a connection issue
  • MEDICIS GB -> new gauge on order
