We performed an RGA scan with the vacuum system containing the heater elements. The results are attached below.

Pressure (Torr) Temperature (°C)
RGA Volume 3.13 × 10⁻⁹ 23
Main Volume 6.15 × 10⁻⁹ 23

As we can see, we are not yet under cleanliness standards. The passing threshold is 4 × 10⁻¹⁰, and we are currently measuring nearly double this value. We will continue performing scans to monitor any changes in these readings.
