           Check each Liquerfier screens (A & B) at least once per hour. A sample operational screen is below.
        
          
           
          
             The main components to check on the Liquefier screens are below:
             1) Mode (top left): Should be Run + Auto + Liquefy mode if it's in the production mode
             2) Cold head temperatures: Should be around > 3 Kelvin.
             3) Make sure the Liquefier is producing LHe and the Dewar level keeps increasing  (~4L/hr in average)
                  If you start seeing large frequent fluctuations (similar to the following image), then .
                  It may be an indication that the Dewar level sensor tubes are contaminated. Please contact the Target Expert on shift immediately.

             4) Make sure FC501(A/B)I (actual inlet gHe flow) is close to FC501(A/B)Q  (gHe set-flow from PID)      (see "Settings" screen to check the set values)
             5) Make sure FC(A/B)I (actual outlet gHe flow) is close to FC(A/B)Q  (gHe outlet set-flow from PID)     (see "Settings" screen to check the set values)
