Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ March 2026 test done

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ Record results of circuit tracing 27 Dec 2025 and results of annual lights test

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */Updated status of EL-10

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

Morrand: /* Second Floor */ Strikeout PP2-1:18; I tried to shut off the unit heaters here with no success

This page is very out of date.
The General Operations Team is in the process of documenting changes as we find them.

In 2020 we updated locations of switches for lighting.

In june 2021 we are documenting power panels and breakers as best we know. More to come

== Power Panels ==

Outlets generally have the power panel number and the circuit labeled on them, some newer outlets do not.

=== First Floor ===

====PP1-1====

Back of the shop by the loading dock. Can't miss it. Served from main switch by back door (probably from the upper disconnect, but haven't verified).

Single phase and 2 pole circuits wired to 3 phase breakers.

Several high amp 3 phase breakers that are unmapped.

Electrician moved some things around and added a new thing 10/17/22. (This is all I know.)

====Small fuse box====

Back of the shop, left of PP1-1, above the light switches. 
Left fuse, exit signs. 
traced wiring 4/25/2017, and both fuses appear to feed the fans for the heaters in the ceiling, and the junction boxes next to the roof vents. While this fuse panel does feed into the junction that feeds the exit signs, it is just passing through and does NOT actually feed the exit sign: Tucker

====PB1-1====

This junction is fed by 2 different wiring paths:
*The first wiring path comes from the small fuse box (listed above), and passes through the socket box labeled PP1-1-2:10, then through PB1-1 and up ~4ft to PJ1-1. From PJ1-1, it passes through PB1-2 and out too a conduit in the ceiling where it splits to feed the heater fans (with the exception of the SW one), and the junctions next to the 2 vents in the ceiling
*The second wiring path starts at PP1-2, goes up the conduit labeled 'C' to PB1-2. From there it goes out to PJ1-1, and then down to PB1-1. From PB1-1 it feeds the exit sign over the back door, and the sockets above PP1-1 labeled PP1-1-2:10

====PB1-2====

Power box connected to PP1-1 by conduit. Bridges the A/C heat pump/air handler circuit, among other things. The 3-phase for A/c heat pump and air handler is bridged such that the entire 3 phase comes from PP1-1 up to the roof via PB1-2, and a branch switched on the roof by relay comes back down in the same conduit that goes the the roof. This circuit is passed via conduit to the air handler, and switched manually on the bottom of the air handler.

Below is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker

This junction is a pass through for circuits from PP1-1, PP1-2 and the small fuse box.
*Small fuse box
**lines go through PB1-1->PJ1-1->PB1-2->roof and supply heater fans
*PP1-1
**This circuit feeds through the conduit marked 'B' to the roof and presumably the AC (see note from previous mapping)
*PP1-2
** from conduit 'B', the circuit feeds through the wall behind PB1-2 and into the dock, where it supplies the 220V welder outlet on the back wall above the hydraulic pump.
** from conduit 'C' -> PB1-2 -> PJ1-1 -> PB1-1 -> exit sign over back door, and the outlets above PP1-1
** Conduit 'D' connects PP1-2 and PB1-2, but no wires are run inside.

= Electrical Punch List =

== Desired Circuits ==

=== Hot Metals ===

=== Wood Shop ===

drops: http://www.mcmaster.com/#4804k12/=pmf353 ??

== Other goodies ==

100 amp 5 wire 3 phase disconnect with lugs sufficient for #1 feeder cable. This could be located anywhere that is convenient.

= Light Switches =

=== Upstairs: Arts and Electronics Areas ===

There are five lighting circuits upstairs, four of which are on three-way switches.

* There is a switch next to the front stairway for stairwell and upstairs landing (the other switch is at the bottom of the stairs). Leave this light on.
* There are three switches on the Arts side of the stairwell labelled 'Arts' 'Electronics' and 'Mid'. There is an identical set of switches by the door to the back stairway.
** Arts is the lights on the arts side of the upstairs
** Electronics is two rows of lights on the electronics side
** Mid is one row of lights in electronics
* Many of the fixtures in electronics have individual pull-switches (wall switch must be on)
* The switch for the lights in front of the shelves on the north wall of the electronics lab is behind the shelves. Follow the conduit that comes down from the ceiling.

=== Cold Metals, General Shop, Small Metals ===

The shop lights are near the back door -- look to the left of the loading dock, to the left
of the electrical panels with the clock sitting on top. There's a row of
with a red panel around them.

There's no way to turn these lights on from the other end of the shop. But a switch in Cold metals next to the sliding door into the lounge does turn on a small bank in the center of the room for safety.

One light should stay on for safety. If there are zero lights on, turn one on.

Switches that have clear plastic covers don't need to be messed with.

=== Lounge ===

The lounge has a simple light switch arrangement.

=== CNC Room ===

* Four switches by the front entrance that control the lights in the main part of the room
* Two switches by the safe to the left, one for the safe lights and one for the short hall by the doorway to the shop
* One switch to the right of the safe, that controls the outlet on the ceiling in the center of the room.

=== Wood Shop / Hot Metals ===

* Both the Wood Shop and Hot Metals share light controls. Switches are located near the loading dock doors spread over two clusters of switch boxes either side of the electrical panels.

* There is a switch next to the HotMetals street door that turns on the very center of Hot Metals & the Wood shop, it is a 3-way with a switch in the clusters noted above.

Emergency lights

2021-10-20T01:13:57Z

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ Missed one

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ Periodic tests

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

=Removal Section=
*What is it? - The old shop air compressor
*Who is sponsoring? - [[User:morrand|Andrew Morris]], General Ops Lead, in lieu of General Area Host
*Date published to Discourse - October 18, 2021
*Asset value - Scrap; motor probably worth around $150
*Suggested method of removal - Sell the motor at auction/locally, and junk the rest
*Background notes - Probably try to sell the motor on eBay first, and if not, see if a motor shop will buy it, or Craigslist
*Resolution of removal -
*Approval -

== Description ==
The quincy compressor is the main compressed air source for PS1. This compressor is in the boiler-room and supplied air via overhead piping to:
*the general worktables in General, Wood and Hot metals
*back door next to small metals
*wall of cold metals
*shopbot
*West wall of hot metals
*lasers for air assist

The compressor is a 2 stage unit, with integral unloaders and an aftercooler/catch tank after the compressor stage. The The compressor is currently configured:
*125PSI output
*No drain in tank (bottom port is simply plugged)
*1" SS flex hose connection to shop wall

==maintenance ==
** out of service 8/26/21. Andrew m Brian d and gary n assessed a major failure. We have contacted Quincy for a service call. no response from Quincy. Brought in another respected service co. UPDATE 9/1/2021 the system has failed. mostly drive motor but rest of system is in dangerous condition. We have configured temporary air for Lasers but all other drops plus tools that require air (Tormach, Blasting cab, Plasma table are dead in water for now. General Operations Team and President are working on solution.

*The local quincy distributor is very helpful for gaskets and replacement parts: John Hinkel <john.hinkel@quincycompressor.com> NOT AVAILABLE VIA EMAIL 2021. ,
*Our compressor is old enough that he can't look up the exact parts on his computer so there is some guesswork in identifying which gaskets are correct. So far he's been on the ball.
*The compressor came on a tank from the 1960's and it is unclear whether this tanks is safe to use. The cost of hydro-testing was prohibitive, so a new tank was procured from McMaster Carr
*The compressor has a history of leaking BADLY. In June 2017, the compressor head was diassembled, cleaned, and new gaskets installed. This reduced but did not eliminate leakage. Primary culprits for the leaking were the 2 side access panels. These are made of zinc, and over-torquing the mounting bolts caused them to warp. They were straightened on the arbor press before re-installation, however, leakage is still an issue.
*The unloaders have diaphragm gaskets that are cracked, and should be replaced

Schultz air compressor

2021-10-18T12:18:52Z

Morrand: Added some details

{{Template:EquipmentPage

The [[Schultz air compressor]] is a 10 hp two-stage compressor that feeds the shop air for both the 3719 and 3717 buildings. It was purchased to replace the [[Quincy Air Compressor]], which broke down August 26, 2021, and could not be economically repaired.

== Description ==
The compressor is a two-stage machine rated for 40 cfm at 175 psi. It has a 120 gallon tank. It is fitted with a 10 hp 3-phase motor that is fed from PP1-7 (the safety switch in the Boiler Room), which is fed from a 3-phase 60 A breaker in PP1-1. Specified weight is 836 lbs. for the whole machine.

== Operation ==
The compressor starts and stops automatically. There is also a manual on-off switch on the left side of the unit. This is a small red mushroom-head type button. Push to stop the compressor, and pull to switch on.

For servicing, use the safety switch on the wall. That switch can (and should!) also be locked out for safety.

== Maintenance ==
To be filled in later. The compressor is fitted with an hour gauge near the motor that can be used to track service.

'''There is no low-oil shutoff on this unit.''' It's critically important to watch the oil level in the sight glass, and if it gets low, top it up, or shut off the machine until it can be topped up.

=== 8-hour service ===
The compressor needs to have the initial break-in oil changed after 8 running hours. This is due at hour meter 8.0. Schultz requires the use of SAE 30 non-detergent, non-synthetic compressor oil for all oil changes.

== Background ==
In mid-2020, the air conditioner serving the 3519 side of the building (Cold Metals/General) stopped cooling due to refrigerant leaks, and while it was recharged, this failed to solve the problem. Late in 2020, the compressor for the 3517 side of the building (Wood Shop/Hot Metals) blew off its curbs in a storm, causing it to fail totally. As a result, neither side of the building currently has a working air conditioner.

This condition presents a health and comfort hazard for the membership during summer weather.

The Board has obtained an estimate of $14,450 for a contractor to replace both air conditioning units. This would include replacement of the rooftop units and the air handlers in both areas. In addition, arrangements are being negotiated for the landlord to defray some of the cost of this work.

== Synopsis ==
This vote authorizes the Board to spend up to $15,000 to have the air conditioners replaced. This includes a small amount for unforeseen extra costs.

== Language of the Vote ==
The Board of Directors is authorized to spend up to $15,000 for the purpose of replacing the air conditioning units serving the 3517 (Wood Shop) building and the 3519 (General/Cold Metals) building. The Board is authorized to draw funds for this work from the savings requirement established by the [[2021 Budget Vote]]. This authorization expires on September 30, 2021.

The Board of Directors is further authorized to negotiate with the landlord terms for reimbursement of part or all of these expenses on terms the Board deems advisable.

The Board has obtained an estimate of $14,450 for a contractor to replace both air conditioning units. This would include replacement of the rooftop units and the air handlers in both areas. In addition, arrangements are being negotiated for the landlord to defray some of the cost of this work.

== Synopsis ==
This vote authorizes the Board to spend up to $15,000 to have the air conditioners replaced. This includes a small amount for unforeseen extra costs.

== Language of the Vote ==
The Board of Directors is authorized to spend up to $15,000 for the purpose of replacing the air conditioning units serving the 3517 (Wood Shop) building and the 3519 (General/Cold Metals) building. The Board is authorized to draw funds for this work from the savings requirement established by the [[2021 Budget Vote]]. This authorization expires on September 30, 2021.

The Board of Directors is further authorized to negotiate with the landlord terms for reimbursement of part or all of these expenses on terms the Board deems advisable.

==Authorization of Uses and Storage==
The Organization recognizes that the safe use of certain hazardous materials is necessary and appropriate to its purposes, and that safe storage of those materials on its property facilitates those uses. In the interest of facilitating those uses, the following general authorizations are established under this policy.

===Day Use Authorization===
Hazardous materials that are not otherwise forbidden by this policy may be brought into or used at the space on a "day use" basis. Only enough of the material may be brought into the space to support one day's usage. None of the material may be stored or disposed of anywhere in the space, and all of the unused material, along with any waste generated, must be removed by the user upon completion of its use.

Whenever this authorization is applied, the user shall comply with all of the safety and health recommendations as set forth in the manufacturer's Safety Data Sheet, if one exists, or take other reasonable measures to protect other users of the space and the space itself.

===General Authorization===
Limited quantities of certain substances presenting a low hazard to health and safety are authorized for use and storage in the space, as listed in the table below.

Each of these authorizations are subject to the conditions that:
* Each of these materials should be used in accordance with good industrial practices. This includes taking all appropriate precautions recommended in the substance's Safety Data Sheet, if one exists. Users are encouraged to get and have a copy of the Safety Data Sheet while using any of these materials.
* Storage of any hazardous material, as with anything else, is subject to the [[Tidy Space Policy]]. In particular, non-flammable hazardous materials must be stored in a member's assigned storage space (if for personal use) or in an appropriate storage space allocated to the Area (if for common use).
* All flammable materials noted in the table must be stored in the flammables cabinet located on the [[Dock]]. Storage space in the flammables cabinet is very limited, with priority given to Space-owned materials for common use. Personal materials stored in the flammables cabinet shall be labeled with the proper name of the material (as listed below), along with the owner's name and telephone number.

==Registered Use==
Where a material not listed above is to be brought into, used, or stored in the space, or where a larger quantity of a listed material is needed than is permitted in the table, its introduction, use, or storage in the space may be permitted through registration.

The purpose of registration is to ensure that materials having a moderate hazard, whether due to their properties or the quantity proposed to be kept on-property, are being used and stored in a way that minimizes the danger to the Organization's facilities and their users and ensures compliance with the law. A secondary purpose of registration is to ensure that the locations and total quantities of hazardous materials kept on-property are identified and tracked to aid emergency response efforts.

The Board designates the [[General Operations Team]] to administer the registration and control of materials under this provision.

===Initial Registration===
To bring a hazardous material into the space, contact a member of the General Operations Team through email, Discourse, or Slack. Provide as much of the following information as you have:
* The proper (shipping) name of the material, and the UN number if it has one.
* The manufacturer's name.
* The [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Safety_data_sheet Safety Data Sheet] (SDS), either as an attachment or as a link to a copy published on the Internet.
* A short explanation of how you want to use the material. You should include an estimate of how long you want to keep the material in storage.
* Your name and storage assignment, if this will be personal material. If you do not have storage assigned to you, please explain where you plan to store the substance. If you propose to make the material available to the space generally, confirm that the appropriate Area Host has approved of putting it into general usage and describe how it will be stored.

General Operations will review the proposed material and will reply as quickly as possible with any restrictions that may apply. These may include limits on the amount to be stored at any one time, the duration of storage, conditions of storage, or other requirements. If those restrictions are acceptable to you, General Operations will register the type, quantity, and location of the material. You may then bring the material into the space under the restrictions that are established.

===Labeling and Storage===
Registered materials must always be labeled with the following information:
* The proper name of the material and, optionally, the UN number
* Owner's name and telephone number
* Name of the General Operations member who registered the material
* An appropriate hazard label. This may be:
** An [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazardous_Materials_Identification_System HMIS]-type label, properly filled out. This option is preferred.
** An [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFPA_704 NFPA]-type "four-diamond" label, properly filled out.
** The designated DOT hazard label. Note that the "limited quantity" label is not authorized for this purpose.

There is no minimum size for the label, but it must remain reasonably legible while the container remains in the space.

===Registry Maintenance===
On receiving a request for registration, General Operations will review the hazards of the material and its compatibility with the space. The review will include, at least:
* Fire, health, and reactivity hazards, both during use and in storage
* Existing guidance on reducing fire hazards, such as NFPA 30
* Known legal requirements, such as restrictions imposed by Chicago Municipal Code (in particular, [https://codelibrary.amlegal.com/codes/chicago/latest/chicago_il/0-0-0-2522374 Title 15])
* The amount of the material, or similar materials, already on site.

Practical mitigation measures will also be devised for these hazards where necessary, which may include limiting the quantity in the space at one time, restricting storage to certain areas (such as the flammables cabinet), requiring an attendant while it is in use, or other reasonable measures.

General Operations has the authority to refuse registration of a material that cannot be safely stored in the space. A refusal may be appealed through the [[Dispute Resolution Committee]].

Approved materials will be put on a register, showing who brought the material into the space, the amount on site, and its location, and linking to the Safety Data Sheet for the material if one exists. This register will be used to control the quantity and location of hazardous materials, and to provide critical information to fire and medical personnel in case of an emergency.

It is the responsibility of a registered material's user to update the registry when that material is taken off-site or is no longer needed.

==Disposal==
All hazardous materials used in the space shall be disposed of properly, in accordance with the SDS, after use or when they are no longer needed.

They shall not be put into the ordinary trash, except where this is permitted by the SDS or when the material has been acceptably neutralized (for example, many latex paints can be put in ordinary trash if mixed with an absorbent like kitty litter). Small quantities may be accepted at household hazardous waste centers or collection events. See the Illinois EPA's [https://www2.illinois.gov/epa/topics/waste-management/waste-disposal/household-hazardous-waste/Pages/disposal.aspx guidance] for more advice and information.

==Authorization of Uses and Storage==
The Organization recognizes that the safe use of certain hazardous materials is necessary and appropriate to its purposes, and that safe storage of those materials on its property facilitates those uses. In the interest of facilitating those uses, the following general authorizations are established under this policy.

===Day Use Authorization===
Hazardous materials that are not otherwise forbidden by this policy may be brought into or used at the space on a "day use" basis. Only enough of the material may be brought into the space to support one day's usage. None of the material may be stored or disposed of anywhere in the space, and all of the unused material, along with any waste generated, must be removed by the user upon completion of its use.

Whenever this authorization is applied, the user shall comply with all of the safety and health recommendations as set forth in the manufacturer's Safety Data Sheet, if one exists, or take other reasonable measures to protect other users of the space and the space itself.

===General Authorization===
Limited quantities of certain substances presenting a low hazard to health and safety are authorized for use and storage in the space, as listed in the table below.

Each of these authorizations are subject to the conditions that:
* Each of these materials should be used in accordance with good industrial practices. This includes taking all appropriate precautions recommended in the substance's Safety Data Sheet, if one exists. Users are encouraged to get and have a copy of the Safety Data Sheet while using any of these materials.
* Storage of any hazardous material, as with anything else, is subject to the [[Tidy Space Policy]]. In particular, non-flammable hazardous materials must be stored in a member's assigned storage space (if for personal use) or in an appropriate storage space allocated to the Area (if for common use).
* All flammable materials noted in the table must be stored in the flammables cabinet located on the [[Dock]]. Storage space in the flammables cabinet is very limited, with priority given to Space-owned materials for common use. Personal materials stored in the flammables cabinet shall be labeled with the proper name of the material (as listed below), along with the owner's name and telephone number.

==Registered Use==
Where a material not listed above is to be brought into, used, or stored in the space, or where a larger quantity of a listed material is needed than is permitted in the table, its introduction, use, or storage in the space may be permitted through registration.

The purpose of registration is to ensure that materials having a moderate hazard, whether due to their properties or the quantity proposed to be kept on-property, are being used and stored in a way that minimizes the danger to the Organization's facilities and their users and ensures compliance with the law. A secondary purpose of registration is to ensure that the locations and total quantities of hazardous materials kept on-property are identified and tracked to aid emergency response efforts.

The Board designates the [[General Operations Team]] to administer the registration and control of materials under this provision.

===Initial Registration===
To bring a hazardous material into the space, contact a member of the General Operations Team through email, Discourse, or Slack. Provide as much of the following information as you have:
* The proper (shipping) name of the material, and the UN number if it has one.
* The manufacturer's name.
* The Safety Data Sheet (SDS), either as an attachment or as a link to a copy published on the Internet.
* A short explanation of how you want to use the material. You should include an estimate of how long you want to keep the material in storage.
* Your name and storage assignment, if this will be personal material. If you do not have storage assigned to you, please explain where you plan to store the substance. If you propose to make the material available to the space generally, confirm that the appropriate Area Host has approved of putting it into general usage.

General Operations will review the proposed material and will reply as quickly as possible with any restrictions that may apply. These may include limits on the amount to be stored at any one time, the duration of storage, conditions of storage, or other requirements. If those restrictions are acceptable to you, General Operations will register the type, quantity, and location of the material. You may then bring the material into the space under the restrictions that are established.

===Labeling and Storage===
Registered materials must always be labeled with the following information:
* The proper name of the material and, optionally, the UN number
* Owner's name and telephone number
* Name of the General Operations member who registered the material
* An appropriate hazard label. This may be:
** An [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hazardous_Materials_Identification_System HMIS]-type label, properly filled out. This option is preferred.
** An [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFPA_704 NFPA]-type "four-diamond" label, properly filled out.
** The designated DOT hazard label. Note that the "limited quantity" label is not authorized for this purpose.

In the process of leasing the 3515 space our landlord had the shop A/C's put into working condition.

The work was done on June 8, 2016 by

TD Heating 
33 S East River Road 
Des Plaines IL. 60016 
773-267-7727

They also provided an estimate for an annual service contract as required by our lease. The recipt for the work and the estimate can be found in the PS1 google drive under facilities/HVAC.

This makes some of what is below no longer relevant.

== Cooling ==

=== Lounge ===

A new window AC was installed July 2014

=== Shop ===

There is a heat pump / air handler cooling system mounted on the ceiling and roof.

These are some very vague and poorly collated notes about that:

heat pump stat - but we aren't using the heat pump for heating, so we
don't even need the fancy board since it's for defrost. we use it when
we're cooling only. Right now, the wire from the roof is wired to make
it so when power is on (7,9,11) PP1-1 - it runs all the time. There is
no relay control of it that's active. the red wire in the control wire
will throw a relay on and off to control the heat pump.

but, we don't need to use the heat mode of the unit and it's not wired
upstairs for it at the moment, so we should set up the filtrete like so -

take off silver jumper, use RC and Y. (normal cooling, not heat pump cooling - the transformer
is ganged right to the relay up top).
thin red wire on the transformer goes to RC
thick red wire from the roof goes to Y
blue and white should be stuck together like they are.

we also need to put the air handler/fan unit on the coil that hangs down
(big tan thing) run always if the heat pump is on, since it will ice up
otherwise. However, it's also useful when things aren't in cooling mode
for running some air from outside to the shop, so we want a switch that
can manually trigger the relay that will be controlling the air handler.

According to Everrett, the AC in the shop froze up sometime between mid june and late april 2014. Eric Stein noted that the switch box on the bottom of the shop AC was open in mid june. That's probably not good. Presumably, nobody read the HVAC wiki page before trying to do things with HVAC. For shame!

==== Notes from service call 2014/07/09 ====

Service was provided by "My Guy HVAC" They were on time and professional. The only issue was the technician struggled a little with the unconventional connections in the shop system. The were working on a flat service fee so no extra cost was incurred because of his confusion.

Above notes are accurate except there is no thermostat at all and the unit doesn't' supply outside air. The unit on the roof is wired for cooling only. Connect the small (22ga?) red wires to the left of pp1-1 to trigger the contacter for the compressor on the roof. There is no control board for the air handler and the blower is wired directly to the switches. The switches on the bottom of the air handler are each switching one leg of the 240v circuit for the blower. This should be changed to a DPST switch at a minimum. A disconnect would be better. The blower circuit is taken from 2 legs of the 3 phase circuit used for the compressor. This is a potential safety issue. As well as confusing as one would expect a separate breaker for the blower. The service tech indicated that the unit is low on refrigerant, estimated 2-3 lbs. Due to the other issues, I chose not to have the the refrigerant topped off at this time.The unit uses R-22 refrigerant.

My recommendation is that we leave the unit alone unless or until there is a 24v control added to the blower, a separate circuit with a disconnect is run to the blower and a filter setup is arranged.

Here is a photo of the spec plate on the rooftop unit
(To be added)

=== Upstairs ===

There is an HVAC unit in the comms/hvac closet upstairs near the side stairs.

Unit in utility closet:
* Brand: International Comfort Products Corporation
* Model: FBF100F14A4
* Mfg No: NTG3100GFA4
* Serial No: L0114187076
* [http://icpindexing.toddsit.com/documents/086477/44103260800.pdf manual]

Rooftop Unit:
* Brand: Heil
* Model: NACO36AKA1
* Serial No: L011404663

==== Note from service call 2014/07/09 ====
Service was provided by "My Guy HVAC" They were on time and professional.

Unit was low by 3 lbs of R-22 refrigerant. Likely has a small leak. Unit was inspected and topped off. Recommended that we change the filter every 60-90 days.

==== Notes from service call 2015/06/10 ====
Service was again provided by "My Guy HVAC". Inspected electric and coil, looked clean and good. Checked filter, cycled inside. Filter needs replacing. They added 2 lbs R-22 refrigerant to get it back up to pressure. Cycled the system. They added a can of Easy Seal to hopefully seal the leak, but they cannot provide a guarantee that it will work. We will know for sure if it worked by next year. If it did not work, we can just continue to top off the refrigerant every year, which will probably cost about $200-$300 per year. This is considerably less expensive than buying a new unit, I think. This time they recommended that we change the filter every 30 days. I'm gonna pick up a few from Home Depot later today.

== Heating Zones ==

The building has three heating zones that are separately controlled. The room in the back left corner of the main room (looking toward the back of the building) contains our boiler and our hot water tank.

=== Upstairs ===

The first zone is a hot-water circuit from the "north-side" boiler (the larger one at the back of the boiler room) serving the back stairs, the 3D/Lasers Room, the Lounge, and the upstairs areas (Electronics and Arts). The thermostat for this zone is in the 3D/Lasers room and controls the circulator for this circuit. Note that turning on the thermostat in the 3D room will also heat the upstairs. Although the radiators upstairs are controlled by a thermostatic valve, this doesn't seem to work well and it's possible to overheat the upstairs, especially if the 3D room's windows are open to provide makeup air to the lasers.

Upstairs also has forced-air heat, separate from the rest of the space. The thermostat is by the closet across from the top of the front stairs, in the craft area. The heat (and cooling) are in the closet.

=== North Shop ===

The second zone is also served from the "north-side" boiler on a second hot water circuit. This circuit feeds the four unit heaters in the north shop (General, Cold Metals, and Small Metals). The unit heaters are set up so that they will not start until the water going through them reaches a certain temperature. For this reason, it will take a while (sometimes hours) for them to start when the thermostat is turned on.

The thermostat is located in the Cold Metals area near the lathes. The non-functioning wifi thermostat was replaced by a "dumb" thermostat in the fall of 2014. This thermostat controls the circulator for this area. This is a totally separate thermostat from the air conditioner thermostat (near the breaker panels).

This hot water circuit has a high point air bleeder valve near the unit heater over the kitchen and at least one low point drain in the kitchen under the sink.

==== Trouble History ====

Around the end of December 2015 the heat in the shop stopped working. the boiler, thermostat and the circulating pump all seemed in working order. Most likely cause was determined to be an 'air lock' preventing circulation. There is a valve at the high point of the piping, it's at the heat exchanger above the kitchen just north of the door to the shop. The boiler was switched off, a hose was run from the valve to the kitchen sink and the valve was opened. Nothing happened. The gauge on the boiler showed 12 psi and it was expected that the automatic makeup water valve would open and add water to the system forcing any trapped air out. This did not happen. Water was added manually until a steady flow was draining into the kitchen sink. The air bleed valve was closed and the system was turned back on. The system was run until all four heat exchangers in the shop came on. Then the process was repeated and more air was purged. It was also noted that prior to starting the process that the expansion tank was empty although the boiler was hot. The system was left running with a boiler pressure of 18psi and the expansion tank about 1/8 full.
* It may be that the automatic make up water valve is defective or set to come on below 12 psi and it also may be that the static pressure at the valve is about 12 psi with another valve open to atmosphere.

=== South Shop ===

There is a second, smaller boiler, with a second feed valve, expansion tank, and circulating pump, for the south shop (Woods/Hot Metals). The boiler is on the opposite wall from the first (north shop) boiler. The hot water circuit from this boiler feeds two unit heaters, one in the Wood Shop and one in Hot Metals. Again, these will not switch on until the water going through is hot enough. This circuit usually heats up fairly quickly, though.

The thermostat for this zone is in the middle of the Wood Shop, right next to the (separate) air conditioner thermostat.

== Outside air exchange ==

=== Shop ===

==== Fresh air intake ====

There is a large powered air intake mounted above the boiler room and the hot metal area. The landlord indicated (7/1/14) that this system needs to be operational to satisfy city inspection. The electrical circuit (3 phase) for this unit was disconnected and the 240v portion was relocated to the compressor. In addition, the wiring from the disconnect to the magnetic motor starter was removed. This probably occurred shortly after we occupied the building. The disconnect immediately below the motor was relocated to the mill 2/14.
The heating feature of this intake was disconnected by the landlord prior to our arrival.

Failure to make this operational may result in fines.

==== Exhaust ====

Roof vents

2 powered vents. Switched at the back of the shop by the electrical panels.

The south unit is not operational and needs diagnosis and repair. 7/9/14 with the switch on a humming noise could be heard on the roof. I suspect a stuck fan or a belt issue. The mushroom cap on the roof can be removed with an adjustable wrench for access.

The north unit is operational and seems to be thermostatically controlled (not verified). Unknown size or capacity.

Laser. 4", current cfm unknown. 80cfm or so.

Cold metal 10"?

Central shop 10"?

Wall vents

Catwalk 4"

North wall. 4" DO NOT USE! It is a code violation to vent in this manner.

=== Boiler Room ===

Powered exhaust, north wall. Switched in proximity. Near the compressor.

Automatic fresh air intake. East wall.

== Maintenance ==
Some of our HVAC systems require regular maintenance.

[[File:Boiler-1-feed.png|200px|thumb|left|The water supply arrangement on the boiler for the north shop.]]

==== Water Level ====

The boilers are connected to the incoming water supply in the usual way, with pressure reducing valves. The PRV for the south-side boiler has a bypass lever on it, which can be pulled up to force water in, but it is supposed to add water automatically if needed. This lever should only be pulled up for major service, like flushing the system, or if the PRV doesn't work for some reason.

The north-side boiler's pressure reducing valve doesn't have a bypass lever. Instead, it has a separate bypass valve that can be opened to fill the boiler. As of December 2020, the PRV doesn't seem to work correctly and may need to be adjusted. If water needs to be added to the system, open the green valve under the PRV until it is topped up. Cold pressure in both boilers should be about 12 psi.

==== Pumps ====

In the boiler room the two red pumps that force hot water for radiant heat in the front room and the shop area. These pumps have three ports for oil lubrication. The two ports on either side of the pump get 3 drops of oil each, the covered port over the bearing needs one strong squirt. This needs to be done annually. This was last performed 2020-10-29.

==== Filter ====

The furnace/AC upstairs has a filter that will need to be changed every 30 days. Last changed 2015-09-19. [[User:Justin|Justin]] ([[User talk:Justin|talk]]) 23:09, 21 September 2015 (CDT)

Back of the shop by the loading dock. Can't miss it. Served from main switch by back door (probably from the upper disconnect, but haven't verified).

Single phase and 2 pole circuits wired to 3 phase breakers.

Several high amp 3 phase breakers that are unmapped.

====Small fuse box====

Back of the shop, left of PP1-1, above the light switches. 
Left fuse, exit signs. 
traced wiring 4/25/2017, and both fuses appear to feed the fans for the heaters in the ceiling, and the junction boxes next to the roof vents. While this fuse panel does feed into the junction that feeds the exit signs, it is just passing through and does NOT actually feed the exit sign: Tucker

====PB1-1====

This junction is fed by 2 different wiring paths:
*The first wiring path comes from the small fuse box (listed above), and passes through the socket box labeled PP1-1-2:10, then through PB1-1 and up ~4ft to PJ1-1. From PJ1-1, it passes through PB1-2 and out too a conduit in the ceiling where it splits to feed the heater fans (with the exception of the SW one), and the junctions next to the 2 vents in the ceiling
*The second wiring path starts at PP1-2, goes up the conduit labeled 'C' to PB1-2. From there it goes out to PJ1-1, and then down to PB1-1. From PB1-1 it feeds the exit sign over the back door, and the sockets above PP1-1 labeled PP1-1-2:10

====PB1-2====

Power box connected to PP1-1 by conduit. Bridges the A/C heat pump/air handler circuit, among other things. The 3-phase for A/c heat pump and air handler is bridged such that the entire 3 phase comes from PP1-1 up to the roof via PB1-2, and a branch switched on the roof by relay comes back down in the same conduit that goes the the roof. This circuit is passed via conduit to the air handler, and switched manually on the bottom of the air handler.

Below is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker

This junction is a pass through for circuits from PP1-1, PP1-2 and the small fuse box.
*Small fuse box
**lines go through PB1-1->PJ1-1->PB1-2->roof and supply heater fans
*PP1-1
**This circuit feeds through the conduit marked 'B' to the roof and presumably the AC (see note from previous mapping)
*PP1-2
** from conduit 'B', the circuit feeds through the wall behind PB1-2 and into the dock, where it supplies the 220V welder outlet on the back wall above the hydraulic pump.
** from conduit 'C' -> PB1-2 -> PJ1-1 -> PB1-1 -> exit sign over back door, and the outlets above PP1-1
** Conduit 'D' connects PP1-2 and PB1-2, but no wires are run inside.

drops: http://www.mcmaster.com/#4804k12/=pmf353 ??

== Other goodies ==

100 amp 5 wire 3 phase disconnect with lugs sufficient for #1 feeder cable. This could be located anywhere that is convenient.

= Light Switches =

=== Upstairs: Arts and Electronics Areas ===

There are five lighting circuits upstairs, four of which are on three-way switches.

* There is a switch next to the front stairway for stairwell and upstairs landing (the other switch is at the bottom of the stairs). Leave this light on.
* There are three switches on the Arts side of the stairwell labelled 'Arts' 'Electronics' and 'Mid'. There is an identical set of switches by the door to the back stairway.
** Arts is the lights on the arts side of the upstairs
** Electronics is two rows of lights on the electronics side
** Mid is one row of lights in electronics
* Many of the fixtures in electronics have individual pull-switches (wall switch must be on)
* The switch for the lights in front of the shelves on the north wall of the electronics lab is behind the shelves. Follow the conduit that comes down from the ceiling.

=== Cold Metals, General Shop, Small Metals ===

The shop lights are near the back door -- look to the left of the loading dock, to the left
of the electrical panels with the clock sitting on top. There's a row of
with a red panel around them.

There's no way to turn these lights on from the other end of the shop. But a switch in Cold metals next to the sliding door into the lounge does turn on a small bank in the center of the room for safety.

One light should stay on for safety. If there are zero lights on, turn one on.

Switches that have clear plastic covers don't need to be messed with.

=== Lounge ===

The lounge has a simple light switch arrangement.

=== CNC Room ===

* Four switches by the front entrance that control the lights in the main part of the room
* Two switches by the safe to the left, one for the safe lights and one for the short hall by the doorway to the shop
* One switch to the right of the safe, that controls the outlet on the ceiling in the center of the room.

=== Wood Shop / Hot Metals ===

* Both the Wood Shop and Hot Metals share light controls. Switches are located near the loading dock doors spread over two clusters of switch boxes either side of the electrical panels.

* There is a switch next to the HotMetals street door that turns on the very center of Hot Metals & the Wood shop, it is a 3-way with a switch in the clusters noted above.

==What is this?==
The Board decided in October 2020 to purchase several air purifiers to help with controlling the spread of COVID-19 in the space during the pandemic of 2020.

The air purifiers are equipped with HEPA-like filters. The manufacturer won't call them HEPA filters, but does make a lot of other claims about them that make them sound like they are about as good, including that they'll catch viruses. The filters also contain activated carbon to help trap solvents and vapors. There is also a part of the machine called the "ion chamber (air stream optimizer)," which sure sounds like it does something cool, although they won't say what. These are not air ionizers.

==Where is this?==
There are four purifiers located in the front part of the building: one each in 3D Printing, the Lounge, Graphic Arts, and Electronics.

There are no purifiers in the workshop areas simply because they're too large to cover with units like this. You're encouraged to run the exhaust fans in the General/Cold Metals area whenever possible. In the Wood Shop, you should be running the [[Dust collector Grizzly G0703|dust collector]] whenever you are working on machines that are connected to it, or using a shop vacuum otherwise; there are also some ceiling-mounted purifiers to help catch the rest of the dust.

==How do I use it?==
There is a grand total of one control, so it's pretty easy.

===To turn on===
Touch the round knob on the front. One white light will come on and the fan will start. After a moment, the light will dim. Pretty slick, eh?

===To change speed===
Touch the round knob briefly. This will light up another white light on the front and the speed will increase.

===To shut off===
Touch the round knob repeatedly until all the lights go out.

==How do I ''not'' use it?==
Don't set anything on top of the machine. That will block the air flow, which defeats the purpose, but it also probably will make the fan motor heat up and shorten the machine's lifespan. Also try to keep the area around the machine clear so it can pull in dirty air effectively.

Definitely don't set anything wet on top of the machine. It's not waterproof, in addition to the problem mentioned above.

Don't pick it up by the white top. That part unlatches from the bottom and can't hold the weight of the whole thing.

For the duration of the COVID-19 emergency, please leave the purifiers on high unless you have a good reason to lower them or shut them off. While we're on the subject, also realize these machines are meant to help provide a little more protection during the emergency. You still need to wear a mask and follow all the other [[Current COVID Info|COVID rules]] while in the space.

==How do I maintain it?==

These purifiers take replacement filter #F211PACF101652 (from Abt Electronics, Glenview, $70 as of the purchase date). We bought spare filters too. They are stashed in the vault. A filter is supposed to be good for six months or so; it remains to be seen whether we can get that much life from them.

Each purifier also has a washable prefilter, which is just a cloth tube that pulls over the bottom part of the machine (the filter housing). This can be vacuumed off or removed and hand-washed (or machine washed, gentle cycle, cold water) as needed.

===To check the filter===
The machine's indicator lights will show the filter status as follows:
* White: Everything is OK.
* Yellow: The filter is about one month away from replacement. Check if we have a spare in the vault; if not, contact the General Area host or General Operations to have a new one ordered.
* Red: The filter is done and needs replacement now.

===To change the filter===
# Turn off and unplug the machine.
# Push in the latch buttons on both sides (the small rectangular buttons at the bottom of the white housing) and lift off the top.
# Lift out the filter cartridge and put it in the trash.
# Check the prefilter. Now is a good time to wash it out if it needs it. Once it is clean and dry, pull it over the lower housing and hook the top under the hooks at the corners.
# Unfold and insert the new cartridge into the housing.
# Set the top back onto the unit and push down until you hear a click. It only goes on two ways; if it doesn't latch, check that it is on the right way: you may need to turn it 90 degrees to get it on the right way.
# Plug in the unit.
# Push and hold the button on the front for three seconds. This resets the filter timer. The indicator lights will blink three times and then turn white to show that the filter timer has been reset.

In the process of leasing the 3515 space our landlord had the shop A/C's put into working condition.

The work was done on June 8, 2016 by

773-267-7727

They also provided an estimate for an annual service contract as required by our lease. The recipt for the work and the estimate can be found in the PS1 google drive under facilities/HVAC.

This makes some of what is below no longer relevant.

== Cooling ==

=== Lounge ===

A new window AC was installed July 2014

=== Shop ===

There is a heat pump / air handler cooling system mounted on the ceiling and roof.

These are some very vague and poorly collated notes about that:

heat pump stat - but we aren't using the heat pump for heating, so we
don't even need the fancy board since it's for defrost. we use it when
we're cooling only. Right now, the wire from the roof is wired to make
it so when power is on (7,9,11) PP1-1 - it runs all the time. There is
no relay control of it that's active. the red wire in the control wire
will throw a relay on and off to control the heat pump.

but, we don't need to use the heat mode of the unit and it's not wired
upstairs for it at the moment, so we should set up the filtrete like so -

take off silver jumper, use RC and Y. (normal cooling, not heat pump cooling - the transformer
is ganged right to the relay up top).
thin red wire on the transformer goes to RC
thick red wire from the roof goes to Y
blue and white should be stuck together like they are.

we also need to put the air handler/fan unit on the coil that hangs down
(big tan thing) run always if the heat pump is on, since it will ice up
otherwise. However, it's also useful when things aren't in cooling mode
for running some air from outside to the shop, so we want a switch that
can manually trigger the relay that will be controlling the air handler.

According to Everrett, the AC in the shop froze up sometime between mid june and late april 2014. Eric Stein noted that the switch box on the bottom of the shop AC was open in mid june. That's probably not good. Presumably, nobody read the HVAC wiki page before trying to do things with HVAC. For shame!

==== Notes from service call 2014/07/09 ====

Service was provided by "My Guy HVAC" They were on time and professional. The only issue was the technician struggled a little with the unconventional connections in the shop system. The were working on a flat service fee so no extra cost was incurred because of his confusion.

Above notes are accurate except there is no thermostat at all and the unit doesn't' supply outside air. The unit on the roof is wired for cooling only. Connect the small (22ga?) red wires to the left of pp1-1 to trigger the contacter for the compressor on the roof. There is no control board for the air handler and the blower is wired directly to the switches. The switches on the bottom of the air handler are each switching one leg of the 240v circuit for the blower. This should be changed to a DPST switch at a minimum. A disconnect would be better. The blower circuit is taken from 2 legs of the 3 phase circuit used for the compressor. This is a potential safety issue. As well as confusing as one would expect a separate breaker for the blower. The service tech indicated that the unit is low on refrigerant, estimated 2-3 lbs. Due to the other issues, I chose not to have the the refrigerant topped off at this time.The unit uses R-22 refrigerant.

My recommendation is that we leave the unit alone unless or until there is a 24v control added to the blower, a separate circuit with a disconnect is run to the blower and a filter setup is arranged.

Here is a photo of the spec plate on the rooftop unit
(To be added)

=== Upstairs ===

There is an HVAC unit in the comms/hvac closet upstairs near the side stairs.

Unit in utility closet:
* Brand: International Comfort Products Corporation
* Model: FBF100F14A4
* Mfg No: NTG3100GFA4
* Serial No: L0114187076
* [http://icpindexing.toddsit.com/documents/086477/44103260800.pdf manual]

Rooftop Unit:
* Brand: Heil
* Model: NACO36AKA1
* Serial No: L011404663

==== Note from service call 2014/07/09 ====
Service was provided by "My Guy HVAC" They were on time and professional.

Unit was low by 3 lbs of R-22 refrigerant. Likely has a small leak. Unit was inspected and topped off. Recommended that we change the filter every 60-90 days.

==== Notes from service call 2015/06/10 ====
Service was again provided by "My Guy HVAC". Inspected electric and coil, looked clean and good. Checked filter, cycled inside. Filter needs replacing. They added 2 lbs R-22 refrigerant to get it back up to pressure. Cycled the system. They added a can of Easy Seal to hopefully seal the leak, but they cannot provide a guarantee that it will work. We will know for sure if it worked by next year. If it did not work, we can just continue to top off the refrigerant every year, which will probably cost about $200-$300 per year. This is considerably less expensive than buying a new unit, I think. This time they recommended that we change the filter every 30 days. I'm gonna pick up a few from Home Depot later today.

== Heating Zones ==
The upstairs and the downstairs are the 2 separate heating zones.

==== Upstairs ====

The thermostat is by the closet across from the top of the front stairs, in the craft area. The heat and cooling are in the closet.

==== Downstairs ====

The room in the back left corner of the main room (looking toward the back of the building) contains our boiler and our hot water tank.

The thermostat is located in the metal shop area. The non-functioning wifi thermostat was replaced by a "dumb" thermostat in the fall of 2014. This thermostat controls heat in the shop area.

The front room has a thermostat near the safe. This system is independently controlled by the same boiler system in the boiler room. This thermostat ALSO controls radiator pipes upstairs. Setting the thermostat high in the lounge can make the upstairs area very warm, be aware.

==== Shop ====

Around the end of December 2015 the heat in the shop stopped working. the boiler, thermostat and the circulating pump all seemed in working order. Most likely cause was determined to be an 'air lock' preventing circulation. There is a valve at the high point of the piping, it's at the heat exchanger above the kitchen just north of the door to the shop. The boiler was switched off, a hose was run from the valve to the kitchen sink and the valve was opened. Nothing happened. The gauge on the boiler showed 12 psi and it was expected that the automatic makeup water valve would open and add water to the system forcing any trapped air out. This did not happen. Water was added manually until a steady flow was draining into the kitchen sink. The air bleed valve was closed and the system was turned back on. The system was run until all four heat exchangers in the shop came on. Then the process was repeated and more air was purged. It was also noted that prior to starting the process that the expansion tank was empty although the boiler was hot. The system was left running with a boiler pressure of 18psi and the expansion tank about 1/8 full.
* It may be that the automatic make up water valve is defective or set to come on below 12 psi and it also may be that the static pressure at the valve is about 12 psi with another valve open to atmosphere.

== Outside air exchange ==

=== Shop ===

==== Fresh air intake ====

There is a large powered air intake mounted above the boiler room and the hot metal area. The landlord indicated (7/1/14) that this system needs to be operational to satisfy city inspection. The electrical circuit (3 phase) for this unit was disconnected and the 240v portion was relocated to the compressor. In addition, the wiring from the disconnect to the magnetic motor starter was removed. This probably occurred shortly after we occupied the building. The disconnect immediately below the motor was relocated to the mill 2/14.
The heating feature of this intake was disconnected by the landlord prior to our arrival.

Failure to make this operational may result in fines.

==== Exhaust ====

Roof vents

2 powered vents. Switched at the back of the shop by the electrical panels.

The south unit is not operational and needs diagnosis and repair. 7/9/14 with the switch on a humming noise could be heard on the roof. I suspect a stuck fan or a belt issue. The mushroom cap on the roof can be removed with an adjustable wrench for access.

The north unit is operational and seems to be thermostatically controlled (not verified). Unknown size or capacity.

Laser. 4", current cfm unknown. 80cfm or so.

Cold metal 10"?

Central shop 10"?

Wall vents

Catwalk 4"

North wall. 4" DO NOT USE! It is a code violation to vent in this manner.

=== Boiler Room ===

Powered exhaust, north wall. Switched in proximity. Near the compressor.

Automatic fresh air intake. East wall.

== Maintenance ==
Some of our HVAC systems require regular maintenance.

==== Pumps ====

In the boiler room the two red pumps that force hot water for radiant heat in the front room and the shop area. These pumps have three ports for oil lubrication. The two ports on either side of the pump get 3 drops of oil each, the covered port over the bearing needs one strong squirt. This needs to be done annually. This was last performed 2020-10-29.

==== Filter ====

The furnace/AC upstairs has a filter that will need to be changed every 30 days. Last changed 2015-09-19. [[User:Justin|Justin]] ([[User talk:Justin|talk]]) 23:09, 21 September 2015 (CDT)

So far he's been on the ball.
*The compressor came on a tank from the 1960's and it is unclear whether this tanks is safe to use. The cost of hydro-testing was prohibitive, so a new tank was procured from McMaster Carr
*The compressor has a history of leaking BADLY. In June 2017, the compressor head was diassembled, cleaned, and new gaskets installed. This reduced but did not eliminate leakage. Primary culprits for the leaking were the 2 side access panels. These are made of zinc, and over-torquing the mounting bolts caused them to warp. They were straightened on the arbor press before re-installation, however, leakage is still an issue.

====Small fuse box====

Back of the shop, left of PP1-1, above the light switches. 
Left fuse, exit signs. 
traced wiring 4/25/2017, and both fuses appear to feed the fans for the heaters in the ceiling, and the junction boxes next to the roof vents. While this fuse panel does feed into the junction that feeds the exit signs, it is just passing through and does NOT actually feed the exit sign: Tucker

====PB1-1====

This junction is fed by 2 different wiring paths:
*The first wiring path comes from the small fuse box (listed above), and passes through the socket box labeled PP1-1-2:10, then through PB1-1 and up ~4ft to PJ1-1. From PJ1-1, it passes through PB1-2 and out too a conduit in the ceiling where it splits to feed the heater fans (with the exception of the SW one), and the junctions next to the 2 vents in the ceiling
*The second wiring path starts at PP1-2, goes up the conduit labeled 'C' to PB1-2. From there it goes out to PJ1-1, and then down to PB1-1. From PB1-1 it feeds the exit sign over the back door, and the sockets above PP1-1 labeled PP1-1-2:10

====PB1-2====

Power box connected to PP1-1 by conduit. Bridges the A/C heat pump/air handler circuit, among other things. The 3-phase for A/c heat pump and air handler is bridged such that the entire 3 phase comes from PP1-1 up to the roof via PB1-2, and a branch switched on the roof by relay comes back down in the same conduit that goes the the roof. This circuit is passed via conduit to the air handler, and switched manually on the bottom of the air handler.

Below is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker

This junction is a pass through for circuits from PP1-1, PP1-2 and the small fuse box.
*Small fuse box
**lines go through PB1-1->PJ1-1->PB1-2->roof and supply heater fans
*PP1-1
**This circuit feeds through the conduit marked 'B' to the roof and presumably the AC (see note from previous mapping)
*PP1-2
** from conduit 'B', the circuit feeds through the wall behind PB1-2 and into the dock, where it supplies the 220V welder outlet on the back wall above the hydraulic pump.
** from conduit 'C' -> PB1-2 -> PJ1-1 -> PB1-1 -> exit sign over back door, and the outlets above PP1-1
** Conduit 'D' connects PP1-2 and PB1-2, but no wires are run inside.

= Electrical Punch List =

== Desired Circuits ==

=== Hot Metals ===

=== Wood Shop ===

drops: http://www.mcmaster.com/#4804k12/=pmf353 ??

== Other goodies ==

100 amp 5 wire 3 phase disconnect with lugs sufficient for #1 feeder cable. This could be located anywhere that is convenient.

= Light Switches =

=== Upstairs: Arts and Electronics Areas ===

There are five lighting circuits upstairs, four of which are on three-way switches.

* There is a switch next to the front stairway for stairwell and upstairs landing (the other switch is at the bottom of the stairs). Leave this light on.
* There are three switches on the Arts side of the stairwell labelled 'Arts' 'Electronics' and 'Mid'. There is an identical set of switches by the door to the back stairway.
** Arts is the lights on the arts side of the upstairs
** Electronics is two rows of lights on the electronics side
** Mid is one row of lights in electronics
* Many of the fixtures in electronics have individual pull-switches (wall switch must be on)
* The switch for the lights in front of the shelves on the north wall of the electronics lab is behind the shelves. Follow the conduit that comes down from the ceiling.

=== Cold Metals, General Shop, Small Metals ===

The shop lights are near the back door -- look to the left of the loading dock, to the left
of the electrical panels with the clock sitting on top. There's a row of
with a red panel around them.

There's no way to turn these lights on from the other end of the
shop.

One light should stay on for safety. If there are zero lights on, turn one on.

Switches that have clear plastic covers don't need to be messed with.

=== Lounge ===

The lounge has a simple light switch arrangement.

=== CNC Room ===

* Four switches by the front entrance that control the lights in the main part of the room
* Two switches by the safe to the left, one for the safe lights and one for the short hall by the doorway to the shop
* One switch to the right of the safe, that controls the outlet on the ceiling in the center of the room.

=== Wood Shop / Hot Metals ===

* Both the Wood Shop and Hot Metals share light controls. Switches are located near the loading dock doors spread over several switch boxes.

Emergency lights

2020-01-31T23:09:22Z

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ January inspections

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ found circuit for lounge EL

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws

The dumpster is cleared out by Waste Management

== 2018 Dumpster Schedule ==

* Monday - early morning
* Tuesday - mid-day
* Wednesday - early morning
* Friday - "late in the day"
* Saturday - "late in the day" new pickup day for 2018

== Old Schedule 2016 ==

The schedule (as of 5/6/16) is:

*Monday at 6 am

*Wednesday at 12pm

*Friday at 12pm

== General Dumpster Principles ==

On the weekends, the dumpster should be kept outside because the Monday pickup is very early.

During the week, the dumpster should be kept inside the loading dock.

Leaving the dumpster outside during the week can generate a ticket from the city. Don't leave the dumpster out during the week.

The key to the loading dock gate should always be hanging next to the buttons for opening and closing the garage door.

The dumpster has a chain and lock across it (provided by Waste Management). The key for the lock is kept hanging in the dock area, next to the powder coating oven. A spare is kept on a hanger over the desk in Cold Metals.

Tier 1 Cold Metals Authorization

2019-05-29T03:11:54Z

Morrand: /* People who are Authorized for Cold Metals Tier 1 */ added me

[[Category:Cold Metals]]

In the cold metals area we have grouped together authorizations on the non-precision cutting tools into a single authorization. The [[Rockwell drill press]], [[Johnson Bandsaw]], and [[DoAll Bandsaw]] are under the Cold Metals Tier 1 authorization process. The session covers basic operation and safety on the machines.

'''NOTE: Prior to April 2017, the [[Bench Grinder (6in)]], [[Sears Belt Sander|Belt Sander]], and [[DeWalt Chop Saw]] were included in this authorization.'''

Monitor the mailing list for times and dates, or contact one of the listed authorizers.

== How to become a Authorizer ==

We want as many people available to do Cold Metals Tier 1 authorizations as we can get. The idea is to promote safety, and get people used to the sounds that a machine tool cutting well makes.

New authorizers get authorized to authorize others by (1) having some amount of presence in the shop and (2) closely following the "script" during EITHER a "dry-run" authorizing session given to an authorized authorizer -- or conducting a real-live authorizing session while being observed by an authorized authorizer. During such a session, the observing authorizer should _not_ have to speak. Obviously if the new authorizer-to-be has *significant* problems in communication of the content of the "script", the observing authorizer will contribute to the discussion. For the new authorizer-to-be it's a test, not an opportunity for team-teaching.

= Tool information =

== Safety ==

=== General Personal Safety, and Consideration of Others ===

You must work safely. Your actions must not threaten the safety of you, of others, or the tools.You should never operate machine tools under the influence of drugs (prescription or otherwise) or alcohol.It is your responsibility to protect your eyes. Safety goggles may be provided in the cage for activities that have the potential to generate flying particles. Activities which may, depending on circumstances generate flying particles include but are not limited to drilling, sawing, lathing, milling, hammering, chiseling, grinding, and belt sanding. Don't use goggles which are dirty or fogged-up. If cleaning is required cleansing pads may be available in the cage. To clean your goggles, all surfaces that have contact with the skin must be wiped down. The lens should be wiped down, both front and inside. If you choose to use purchase your own goggles be sure they are rated for labeled z87 (this should be written or stamped on the side of all goggles) and have side shields.Disposable earplugs may be supplied in the cage. Follow the instructions on the dispenser. They are surprisingly more effective if you do. Many types of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) are not effective if used improperly. If you don't know whether or how to use your protective equipment, read the instructions.Because of cost and hygiene problems, PS:1 cannot be depended upon to stock dust masks/respirators. If your work has the potential to generate dusts, mists, or vapors, you may proceed only by following these rules:

# Get your own respiratory protection. Ace Hardware has many types. Make sure the mask or filter is really for the substance confronting you. Do not, for instance, use a paper dust mask for organic paint fumes. Follow the mask manufacturer's instructions.
# Work in the back dock when possible, or with an exhaust fan on.
# If it is necessary to work in the main shop be sure you aren't inflicting your fumes or dust on someone else. It would be excellent if you as the fume generator waits until no one is present who could be harmed or inconvenienced by your activities.

When using power tools, remove gloves, watches, jewelry, and roll up your sleeves. Keep your hair tied back and tucked away. This is especially true for the drill presses, mill, and lathe. Tools with moving parts can injure your hands or catch your hair and pull your head into the machine. Gloves and loose clothing can also get caught in moving machinery. Never put your hand in the vicinity of any moving part of any machine. When adjusting the speed of a belt-driven machine (drill press, lathe, mill or other step-pulley drive) unplug the machine before putting your hands into the drive belts. Every Time.If in using any machine that cuts material, you cannot see a cut in progress because of chips or dust produced by the cutting process, a chip brush to clear the work zone -- never use your hands while the tool is on.PS:1 keeps fire extinguishers and first aid supplies on hand. It would be good to familiarize yourself with their locations before you begin your work.

It is best to not work alone in the shop while using machine tools. If you are hurt and cannot dial 911, another person in the space could do that for you. Use the right tool for the job. Incorrect tool usage produces bad results, and can be detrimental to you, your work, and the tools.Knowing a tool is knowing how it works. For instance, power tools make different sounds when they are working. Some sounds are HAPPY and some sounds are SAD. If you don't know how a tool should work, in spite of the demonstration given with this authorization, ask somebody who does know.

=== Safe and Proper Use of the Power Tools ===
This is not an instructional guide to being a machinist. For skill development in using tools in fabrication, you should take a class of some kind and practice, practice, practice. In this authorization, you will be shown only the basic operation of the tools. The purpose of these minimal illustrations of technique is so that you might have some idea of the types of things the tools are capable of. Authorization gives you permission to use the tools. Authorization to use the tools is not a certification of your competence.

== Tool use ==

=== [[Johnson Bandsaw|Horizontal Bandsaw]] ===

The horizontal bandsaw is only for cutting metals.

Clamp your work securely in the vise. Be sure that the work cannot rotate or flip around in the vise when the saw is pulling the blade through the cut. Close the blade guides to the minimum distance that will (1) clear the workpiece and (2) not interfere with the movement of the saw at the bottom end of its travel.

Set the force-control weight to apply proper pressure to the cut. In most cases, this is at minimum. (Closer to the motor is less cut force). Open the hydraulic valve to produce a good feed rate. If the blade seems like it's starting to snag the workpiece or clog the teeth, take a lighter cut by decreasing the feed rate. If the saw is not producing a chip, increase the feed rate. Unless there is a reason to be taking a very light cut, the sound of the saw teeth should be consistent during the entire rotation of the blade. Except when taking a very light cut, the sound of the saw teeth contacting the material should be consistent and chips should form at an even rate. Using coolant helps to preserve blade life, and increase the speed and quality of the cut. It also makes a mess.

A major cause of blade breakage is thin workpieces snagging the saw blade teeth. Snagging causes teeth to be broken and can also cause the blade to stall or come off the wheels. Check the blade for missing teeth before using the saw. A blade with missing teeth is usually not fit for use. Using a fine pitch blade on soft materials like aluminum can clog the teeth and cause the blade to grab the work and stall. Be sure the chips are clearing the teeth. If not, use coolant or a wire brush to push the chips from the teeth. Using a coarse blade on steel will cause the teeth to snag on the work and break off. Turning the saw off (stopping the motor) while the saw is in a cut can cause broken teeth. Any problem that can break a tooth can also cause the blade to come off the wheels. Use the right blade for the work. Trying to mediate a cut on the horizontal bandsaw can cause saw blade teeth to be knocked off the blade; set the saw to lower the blade slowly into the work and then let go. Be gentle with the hydraulic valve. It only requires a feather touch to turn it. Over-torquing the valve handle can damage the valve. If your workpiece gets snagged and stuck on the blade, stop the saw immediately. Unplug the saw, then try to pull the workpiece straight down off the blade.

To free the stuck workpiece, use a rocking or wiggling motion, in-line with the axis of the blade. Don't twist the blade. A bend or kink ruins the blade. If you still can't get your workpiece off the blade, don't force it. Tag the saw as “out of order” and post a message to the list saying “The blade on the horizontal bandsaw is stuck. Could someone please un-stick it.” If the blade comes off the wheels, tag the saw and post the problem to the list.

Morrand: Added work-in-progress notes

== Tracing in progress ==

Just a few notes about things that may, or may not, be true about the wiring. Some of this is informed guesses, some of it is just plain guesswork.

* The server rack on the catwalk might be on PP1-6:3 with the Boss, the 3D printers, exit sign EX-7 (in the kitchen), and a bunch of other stuff. My circuit tracer got only a weak return on it.
* There is a very good chance that EX-10 and EX-11 (upstairs) are wired to EX-7, and in fact probably all of the old exit signs on the 3519 side are wired together, but this hasn't been verified yet.
* PP1-9:11 and (I think) 17 go to a couple of outlets in the Wood Shop. I marked them with Sharpie and they still need more formal labels. There is a chart taped up in the panel that should be verified and then Wikified.
There are a few other notes specific to the emergency lights that I'll put over [[Talk:Emergency_lights|there]].

Morrand: Added work-in-progress notes

== Work in progress ==
It's necessary to trace out which circuits the emergency lights are on, since there doesn't seem to have been a record made. Some guesses about that (some informed, some not):
* EL-10 is apparently on one of the upstairs light circuits. "Mid" is the best guess, but it could be either "Electronics" or "Arts" too.
* EX-9 is fed out of the ceiling. No idea what serves that; I guess something in PP1-6 (the safe) but no guarantees either way.
* EX-10 and EX-11 are tied together and seem to go down to the Kitchen (and EX-7).
* EX-7, in turn, appears to be served out of PP1-6:3, one of the "Everything" breakers in the safe. My circuit tracer got only a weak return from that, though, which could mean a false signal. It's also likely that the server rack on the catwalk is on that same circuit (again, got a weak return on the tracer) which will complicate testing.

Morrand: /* PP1-6 */ Updated a few circuits

== Power Panels ==

Outlets generally have the power panel number and the circuit labeled on them, some newer outlets do not.

=== First Floor ===

====PP1-1====

Back of the shop by the loading dock. Can't miss it.

Single phase and 2 pole circuits wired to 3 phase breakers.

Several high amp 3 phase breakers that are unmapped.

{|Class="wikitable sortable" border="1" style="td { border: 1px solid #000000}"
|-
! Breaker # !! Used !! What Is It
|-
| 8&10&12 || unused || 3 phase, 20 amp, 3 black. Wiring trough, boiler room. Dust collection circuit thru existing disconnect.
|-
| 19&16&18 || used || 2-120v circuits on a 3 phase breaker. Blue wires. Boiler & zone pumps, this is bad and wrong.
|-
| 22 || unused || this is a stray 208v single red wire on a 3 phase breaker that runs to wiring troughin the boiler room. Should be disconnected and abandoned.(used to be paired with wires pp1-2 # 35&37)
|-
|}

 

The following is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker
 
Conduits from this panel were sharpie labeled with letters for this mapping.
{|Class="wikitable sortable" border="1" style="td { border: 1px solid #000000}"

|-
| G || Direct to boiler room || compressor
|-
|}

====PP1-2====

|-
| D || conduit runs to PB1-2, but has no lines || no lines in this conduit
|-
| E || Junction in ceiling above cold metals, which feeds 3 things:
* hanging 220V 1phase twistlock above Johnson bandsaw
* fat pipe out of junction to south takes 90deg east and feeds hanging 120V sockets over lockers
*narrow conduit south takes 90deg turn and tracks back towards boiler room, feeding an unused junction/socket in the boiler room wall

|-
| G || direct to lights in ceiling || shop lights, 3rd and 4th rows from East wall
|-
| H || across shop ceiling and down East wall || 120V outlet run along East wall of cold metals
|-
|}

====Small fuse box====

Back of the shop, left of PP1-1, above the light switches. 
Left fuse, exit signs. 
traced wiring 4/25/2017, and both fuses appear to feed the fans for the heaters in the ceiling, and the junction boxes next to the roof vents. While this fuse panel does feed into the junction that feeds the exit signs, it is just passing through and does NOT actually feed the exit sign: Tucker

====PB1-1====

This junction is fed by 2 different wiring paths:
*The first wiring path comes from the small fuse box (listed above), and passes through the socket box labeled PP1-1-2:10, then through PB1-1 and up ~4ft to PJ1-1. From PJ1-1, it passes through PB1-2 and out too a conduit in the ceiling where it splits to feed the heater fans (with the exception of the SW one), and the junctions next to the 2 vents in the ceiling
*The second wiring path starts at PP1-2, goes up the conduit labeled 'C' to PB1-2. From there it goes out to PJ1-1, and then down to PB1-1. From PB1-1 it feeds the exit sign over the back door, and the sockets above PP1-1 labeled PP1-1-2:10

====PB1-2====

Power box connected to PP1-1 by conduit. Bridges the A/C heat pump/air handler circuit, among other things. The 3-phase for A/c heat pump and air handler is bridged such that the entire 3 phase comes from PP1-1 up to the roof via PB1-2, and a branch switched on the roof by relay comes back down in the same conduit that goes the the roof. This circuit is passed via conduit to the air handler, and switched manually on the bottom of the air handler.

Below is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker

This junction is a pass through for circuits from PP1-1, PP1-2 and the small fuse box.
*Small fuse box
**lines go through PB1-1->PJ1-1->PB1-2->roof and supply heater fans
*PP1-1
**This circuit feeds through the conduit marked 'B' to the roof and presumably the AC (see note from previous mapping)
*PP1-2
** from conduit 'B', the circuit feeds through the wall behind PB1-2 and into the dock, where it supplies the 220V welder outlet on the back wall above the hydraulic pump.
** from conduit 'C' -> PB1-2 -> PJ1-1 -> PB1-1 -> exit sign over back door, and the outlets above PP1-1
** Conduit 'D' connects PP1-2 and PB1-2, but no wires are run inside.

====PP1-3====

|-
|37 || yes, works ||20 amp, 120v, hot metal at welding area.
|}

The following is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker
Conduits from this panel were sharpie labeled with letters for this mapping.

{|Class="wikitable sortable" border="1" style="td { border: 1px solid #000000}"

= Electrical Punch List =

== Desired Circuits ==

=== Hot Metals ===

=== Wood Shop ===

drops: http://www.mcmaster.com/#4804k12/=pmf353 ??

== Other goodies ==

100 amp 5 wire 3 phase disconnect with lugs sufficient for #1 feeder cable. This could be located anywhere that is convenient.

= Light Switches =

=== Upstairs: Arts and Electronics Areas ===

There are five lighting circuits upstairs, four of which are on three-way switches.

* There is a switch next to the front stairway for stairwell and upstairs landing (the other switch is at the bottom of the stairs). Leave this light on.
* There are three switches on the Arts side of the stairwell labelled 'Arts' 'Electronics' and 'Mid'. There is an identical set of switches by the door to the back stairway.
** Arts is the lights on the arts side of the upstairs
** Electronics is two rows of lights on the electronics side
** Mid is one row of lights in electronics
* Many of the fixtures in electronics have individual pull-switches (wall switch must be on)
* The switch for the lights in front of the shelves on the north wall of the electronics lab is behind the shelves. Follow the conduit that comes down from the ceiling.

=== Cold Metals, General Shop, Small Metals ===

The shop lights are near the back door -- look to the left of the loading dock, to the left
of the electrical panels with the clock sitting on top. There's a row of
with a red panel around them.

There's no way to turn these lights on from the other end of the
shop.

One light should stay on for safety. If there are zero lights on, turn one on.

Switches that have clear plastic covers don't need to be messed with.

=== Lounge ===

The lounge has a simple light switch arrangement.

=== CNC Room ===

* Four switches by the front entrance that control the lights in the main part of the room
* Two switches by the safe to the left, one for the safe lights and one for the short hall by the doorway to the shop
* One switch to the right of the safe, that controls the outlet on the ceiling in the center of the room.

=== Wood Shop / Hot Metals ===

* Both the Wood Shop and Hot Metals share light controls. Switches are located near the loading dock doors spread over several switch boxes.

====Small fuse box====

Back of the shop, left of PP1-1, above the light switches. 
Left fuse, exit signs. 
traced wiring 4/25/2017, and both fuses appear to feed the fans for the heaters in the ceiling, and the junction boxes next to the roof vents. While this fuse panel does feed into the junction that feeds the exit signs, it is just passing through and does NOT actually feed the exit sign: Tucker

====PB1-1====

This junction is fed by 2 different wiring paths:
*The first wiring path comes from the small fuse box (listed above), and passes through the socket box labeled PP1-1-2:10, then through PB1-1 and up ~4ft to PJ1-1. From PJ1-1, it passes through PB1-2 and out too a conduit in the ceiling where it splits to feed the heater fans (with the exception of the SW one), and the junctions next to the 2 vents in the ceiling
*The second wiring path starts at PP1-2, goes up the conduit labeled 'C' to PB1-2. From there it goes out to PJ1-1, and then down to PB1-1. From PB1-1 it feeds the exit sign over the back door, and the sockets above PP1-1 labeled PP1-1-2:10

====PB1-2====

Power box connected to PP1-1 by conduit. Bridges the A/C heat pump/air handler circuit, among other things. The 3-phase for A/c heat pump and air handler is bridged such that the entire 3 phase comes from PP1-1 up to the roof via PB1-2, and a branch switched on the roof by relay comes back down in the same conduit that goes the the roof. This circuit is passed via conduit to the air handler, and switched manually on the bottom of the air handler.

Below is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker

This junction is a pass through for circuits from PP1-1, PP1-2 and the small fuse box.
*Small fuse box
**lines go through PB1-1->PJ1-1->PB1-2->roof and supply heater fans
*PP1-1
**This circuit feeds through the conduit marked 'B' to the roof and presumably the AC (see note from previous mapping)
*PP1-2
** from conduit 'B', the circuit feeds through the wall behind PB1-2 and into the dock, where it supplies the 220V welder outlet on the back wall above the hydraulic pump.
** from conduit 'C' -> PB1-2 -> PJ1-1 -> PB1-1 -> exit sign over back door, and the outlets above PP1-1
** Conduit 'D' connects PP1-2 and PB1-2, but no wires are run inside.

=== Upstairs: Arts and Electronics Areas ===

There are five lighting circuits upstairs, four of which are on three-way switches.

* There is a switch next to the front stairway for stairwell and upstairs landing (the other switch is at the bottom of the stairs). Leave this light on.
* There are three switches on the Arts side of the stairwell labelled 'Arts' 'Electronics' and 'Mid'. There is an identical set of switches by the door to the back stairway.
** Arts is the lights on the arts side of the upstairs
** Electronics is two rows of lights on the electronics side
** Mid is one row of lights in electronics
* Many of the fixtures in electronics have individual pull-switches (wall switch must be on)
* The switch for the lights in front of the shelves on the north wall of the electronics lab is behind the shelves. Follow the conduit that comes down from the ceiling.

=== Cold Metals, General Shop, Small Metals ===

The shop lights are near the back door -- look to the left of the loading dock, to the left
of the electrical panels with the clock sitting on top. There's a row of
with a red panel around them.

There's no way to turn these lights on from the other end of the
shop.

One light should stay on for safety. If there are zero lights on, turn one on.

Switches that have clear plastic covers don't need to be messed with.

=== Lounge ===

The lounge has a simple light switch arrangement.

=== CNC Room ===

* Four switches by the front entrance that control the lights in the main part of the room
* Two switches by the safe to the left, one for the safe lights and one for the short hall by the doorway to the shop
* One switch to the right of the safe, that controls the outlet on the ceiling in the center of the room.

=== Wood Shop / Hot Metals ===

* Both the Wood Shop and Hot Metals share light controls. Switches are located near the loading dock doors spread over several switch boxes.

Emergency lights

2019-04-14T17:31:44Z

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ Updated EL-8 circuit per field check

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws

Outlets generally have the power panel number and the circuit labeled on them, some newer outlets do not.

=== First Floor ===

====PP1-1====

Back of the shop by the loading dock. Can't miss it.

Single phase and 2 pole circuits wired to 3 phase breakers.

Several high amp 3 phase breakers that are unmapped.

====Small fuse box====

Back of the shop, left of PP1-1, above the light switches. 
Left fuse, exit signs. 
traced wiring 4/25/2017, and both fuses appear to feed the fans for the heaters in the ceiling, and the junction boxes next to the roof vents. While this fuse panel does feed into the junction that feeds the exit signs, it is just passing through and does NOT actually feed the exit sign: Tucker

====PB1-1====

This junction is fed by 2 different wiring paths:
*The first wiring path comes from the small fuse box (listed above), and passes through the socket box labeled PP1-1-2:10, then through PB1-1 and up ~4ft to PJ1-1. From PJ1-1, it passes through PB1-2 and out too a conduit in the ceiling where it splits to feed the heater fans (with the exception of the SW one), and the junctions next to the 2 vents in the ceiling
*The second wiring path starts at PP1-2, goes up the conduit labeled 'C' to PB1-2. From there it goes out to PJ1-1, and then down to PB1-1. From PB1-1 it feeds the exit sign over the back door, and the sockets above PP1-1 labeled PP1-1-2:10

====PB1-2====

Power box connected to PP1-1 by conduit. Bridges the A/C heat pump/air handler circuit, among other things. The 3-phase for A/c heat pump and air handler is bridged such that the entire 3 phase comes from PP1-1 up to the roof via PB1-2, and a branch switched on the roof by relay comes back down in the same conduit that goes the the roof. This circuit is passed via conduit to the air handler, and switched manually on the bottom of the air handler.

Below is the result of wire tracing done 04/25/2017. Tucker

This junction is a pass through for circuits from PP1-1, PP1-2 and the small fuse box.
*Small fuse box
**lines go through PB1-1->PJ1-1->PB1-2->roof and supply heater fans
*PP1-1
**This circuit feeds through the conduit marked 'B' to the roof and presumably the AC (see note from previous mapping)
*PP1-2
** from conduit 'B', the circuit feeds through the wall behind PB1-2 and into the dock, where it supplies the 220V welder outlet on the back wall above the hydraulic pump.
** from conduit 'C' -> PB1-2 -> PJ1-1 -> PB1-1 -> exit sign over back door, and the outlets above PP1-1
** Conduit 'D' connects PP1-2 and PB1-2, but no wires are run inside.

= Electrical Punch List =

== Desired Circuits ==

=== Hot Metals ===

=== Wood Shop ===

drops: http://www.mcmaster.com/#4804k12/=pmf353 ??

== Other goodies ==

100 amp 5 wire 3 phase disconnect with lugs sufficient for #1 feeder cable. This could be located anywhere that is convenient.

= Light Switches =

=== Upstairs: Arts and Electronics Areas ===

There are five lighting circuits upstairs, four of which are on three-way switches.

* There is a switch next to the front stairway for stairwell and upstairs landing (the other switch is at the bottom of the stairs). Leave this light on.
* There are three switches on the Arts side of the stairwell labelled 'Arts' 'Electronics' and 'Mid'. There is an identical set of switches by the door to the back stairway.
** Arts is the lights on the arts side of the upstairs
** Electronics is two rows of lights on the electronics side
** Mid is one row of lights in electronics
* Many of the fixtures in electronics have individual pull-switches (wall switch must be on)
* The switch for the lights in front of the shelves on the north wall of the electronics lab is behind the shelves. Follow the conduit that comes down from the ceiling.

=== Cold Metals, General Shop, Small Metals ===

The shop lights are near the back door -- look to the left of the loading dock, to the left
of the electrical panels with the clock sitting on top. There's a row of
with a red panel around them.

There's no way to turn these lights on from the other end of the
shop.

One light should stay on for safety. If there are zero lights on, turn one on.

Switches that have clear plastic covers don't need to be messed with.

=== Lounge ===

The lounge has a simple light switch arrangement.

=== CNC Room ===

* Four switches by the front entrance that control the lights in the main part of the room
* Two switches by the safe to the left, one for the safe lights and one for the short hall by the doorway to the shop
* One switch to the right of the safe, that controls the outlet on the ceiling in the center of the room.

=== Wood Shop / Hot Metals ===

* Both the Wood Shop and Hot Metals share light controls. Switches are located near the loading dock doors spread over several switch boxes.

Emergency lights

Morrand: /* Present Lighting */ Added ckt info for EL-6,7 per field test

This is a place to contain location and maintenance information about the emergency lights and exit signs in the space.

== Background ==

PS1's Board decided it was time to get the space into compliance with Chicago's Fire Code. One of the outstanding items was to install appropriate Emergency Lights and Exit signs.

Research showed that Chicago has specific requirements for Emergency Lighting that limits the potential lights to only those that are Chicago Approved. In the main that meant: metal box, two halogen lights, battery backup.

Beyond that, the amount of light is specified by the amount of light along the exit path must meet minimum requirements after 90 minutes of use.

== Present Lighting ==

The tables below list all of the emergency lights and exit signs currently installed in the space, along with some information about their last test dates and (where available) the circuit from which they are served.

Exit signs are listed here because some of them have emergency lighting capabilities, and have the same testing requirements. The ones that don't are numbered in with the ones that do for the sake of easy monitoring and trouble reporting, and so forth. For exit signs without battery backup, the monthly and annual test dates are shown as "N/A" since they don't have to be tested.

== Testing Requirements ==
Chicago Code requires that the emergency lights and the battery-powered exit signs be periodically tested in accordance with [https://www.nfpa.org/codes-and-standards/all-codes-and-standards/list-of-codes-and-standards/detail?code=101 NFPA 101], the NFPA ''Life Safety Code''. The tests themselves are fairly simple, but they need to be done to make sure that the lights will work in an emergency. In addition, a record needs to be kept of when the lights were tested, so that (if necessary) we can show a City inspector that we are keeping up with maintenance.

Of course, the main reason to test the lights is that they could save a life in case of an emergency. But staying in the good graces of the Department of Buildings is important, too.

=== Monthly Tests ===
Every thirty days, each emergency light and sign is to be tested for basic functions. This is done by pressing the "TEST" button on the side or bottom of the fixture and holding it for 30 seconds. For emergency lights, both lights should come on and stay on throughout the test. For exit signs, the sign should stay lit throughout the test.

Anyone can do this test, and it does not require any special prearrangement to do it. When you do this test, if the light passes, update the table above to show who tested the light or sign and when it was tested.

=== Annual Tests ===
Once each year, each emergency light and sign is to undergo a functional test. This is done by dropping power to the circuit to see that the light comes on automatically and stays on for 90 minutes. While the test is simple, it requires a bit of coordination to do it since the power needs to be shut off for the duration of the test.

To do this test, first coordinate with the affected Area Hosts so they know what is going on. It's also an excellent idea to post a notice to the Google Group and to Slack a few days in advance to let people know what is going on, and when, and why. It mostly means the lights will be out for some areas for a couple of hours, but until the circuits are all traced, we aren't totally sure yet.

On the day of the test, first verify that nobody is doing anything critical in the areas being tested. If they are, let them know that you are testing the emergency lights, and that some of the power will be off for a couple of hours. When ready to go, trip the appropriate circuit breaker for the light(s) you are testing. The light should come on automatically. Then, wait 90 minutes. If the light is still on (and reasonably bright) at the end of that time, the light has passed the test; if not, it has failed. Reset the circuit breaker, and then record the results in the table above.

== History ==

Below is some history on the installation project. It is not complete.

'''What was Purchased'''

At the end of 2014 PS1 purchased seven (7) Chicago Approved emergency lighting fixtures, and allocated funds to purchase mounting and electrical supplies to install the lights.

'''Installation Progress'''

Q4 2014

Worked with Michael Skilton to understand the current layout of the electrical panels and where the various lights should be placed in order to ease the wiring aspect of the work.

2015-1-16

* Began working on installation of the Emergency Lights
* Created a template for light fixture mounting screws and places requiring a relief for bolt heads sticking out of the back of the fixture
* Created four (4) mounting boards and test fit to back of light fixtures
* Ran out of necessary supplies to mount the boards: Cinder block screws
