*X-2 [260m]1.3*10^-4 Pa (3.3*10^-6 Pa)
*X-10 [1060m]1.9*10^-3 Pa (1.9*10^-6 Pa)
*X-15 [1580m]1.5*10^-2 Pa (2.6*10^-6 Pa)
*X-21 [2180m]1.5*10^-3 Pa (1.1*10^-5 Pa)
*X-27 [2780m]2.5*10^-3 Pa (2.0*10^-4Pa)
Thanks to T. Tomaru and N. Kimura, the leak point was temporally repaired and the pumping unit was restarted.
