    keyword=Reference cell filled with Deuterium - Deuterium bottle is now EMPTY

    We have changed the reference cell gas from N2 to D2. 
    We have Vented and evacuated cell twice. When we were
    evacuating the cell, we noticed that pressure would 
    not go under 3(4) Torr. I called Jin and he explained
    to me, that this is OK, because the offsets for both
    (left/right) gauges are "drifting" around. 
    
    When we were filling the D2 gas into the cell for the 
    second time, we emptied the D2 bottle (the pressure
    in reference cell would not go above 37 psig).
