Subject: [Che-staff-list] Addition Fume Hood Shutdown

I’m sending this to all of ChE just so I do not miss anyone, so many of you can disregard this email if you do not work in a research lab on the addition side of the building. On the 1^st of every month at midnight the system on the addition side switches motors that exhausts the fume hoods. This past Saturday it did not switch and the system quit working until someone reported it and they reset and put it back into normal operation.  In accessing the system this morning, the techs found that there is a faulty relay/switch that needs to be replaced.

 To replace the part they say they will need to shutdown the whole system and  it will be off for approx.. 4 hours for them to replace and test to ensure it is working correctly. I am asking the PI and grad students to determine when this can occur. It has to happen before the end of the month but doing it as soon possible is best and it will be over and done with.

 Please respond to the FRNY BLDING que so Nick and I can both monitor it. Although it is disrupting to have to shut down for a morning it needs to happen. Sorry and Thanks.

Jeff
