Agenda

  • Review upstream gas plenum configuration
  • Discuss grounding scheme
  • Discuss conductive rubber tube dimensions
  • look at grounding strip on connector board
  • Discuss layers connection


New Action Items

  • Fernando to look at stripping tools to reduce the need for large pcb on connector
  • Gary to verify cable for connector to crimp pin
    • The HV Cable is RG316. It has a 0.1 inch OD.
  • Slava will layout Fernando's stud grounding option
  • Gary to supply sketch of CMU grounding option
  • Gary to check if he can still get conductive rubber boot used previously
  • Slava to update layout of cable to crimp pin per discussion
  • Tim to see if cable restraint bushing can be made
  • What needs to be done on al plate to ensure electrical connection? all
  • Gary to get sample of polycarbonate to test

Action Items/Decisions from Previous Meeting

  • Endplates and aluminum feedthrus awarded -
    • less expensive than originally anticipated due to opening up of tolerances
  • Checked IDEAL tool and manufacturing in Chicago.
    • no longer in business
  • Tim to discuss with vendor repair of end plates if hole messed up
    • less expensive than originally anticipated due to opening up of tolerances
  • Carnegie Mellon to use GARFIELD to check electric field around crimp pin insert
    • Increased length of pin insert to match distance from wire to straw
  • CMU to look over to see if piece tolerances can be loosened to ± .001 in
    • less expensive than originally anticipated due to opening up of tolerances
  • OK if we open end plate to .005 tolerance on hole positions, need to reduce straw diameter to prevent interferences
    • Complete, new straw inside diameter 0.611 inches
  • Conductive rubber tubes cover 30% of gas holes - ok, added additional hole
