4. EC Side C: Endoscope study Pipes were cut and were studied with endoscope from inside 4

5. A1 crack along the pipe (PPF1 connector) 5

6. A4 PPF1 bracket.

7. Detector connector 7

8. This pipe should be repaired To go inside we need to open some accesses Repair should be done also here (PPF1 area) 8

9. 9 Example how pipes installed on the calorimeter flange

11. EC: on detector connection

12. 12 PEEK pipe termination Most probable location of leaks

13. Repair at the detector level Nut PEEK pipe Most probable places of leaks Insert Steel pipe Polyurethane joint Connector Removable steel road

16. 16 Next steps: Today - try to go outside of the tube ( A4 and A6) and see what can be done at the place of connection. End of the week - Close C side (if no additional repair can be made) and start working with side A. When side A will be available to start preparatory work?
