I’m using a brand new diaphragm pump + turbopump, so there should not be any pump oil.

As far as a potential air leak… it’s pulling a deep vacuum 5e-6 torr when I’m not letting deuterium into the chamber so that seems unlikely.

I guess I should take another crack at the RGA to rule out contamination.

The last pik shows the color.
