To-do for solenoid controls redesign
- Recommendations from Director's Review (Electrical System and Quench Protection) and Lehman Review
- determine if cold diodes can increase quench detection - NO, Nov-2011
- add fast DAQ system prior to testing first coil - Done
- add tests for internal shorts, shorts to ground and ground faults in coil and power supply to start-up sequence
- add second dump circuit breaker - NO, Mar-2012
- add additional quench circuit diodes - NO, Mar-2012
- add second quench detector (connected to second dump breaker) - PLC adequate as redundant QD - Mar 2012
- add center tap to dump resistor and monitor ground current in the PLC
- add UPS on dump breakers to avoid fast discharges
- perform Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
- Logbook research
- check elog for all problems - Done Mar-2012
- Infrastructure
- get fourth rack, install temporary wheels, bolt to other three racks - Done Nov 2011
- procure and install computer in racks
- Cryo system
- need specs, new channels, new functionality, etc. from Jonathan - Done Dec 2011
- update mechanical/electrical interface drawing
- Wiring
- add new equipment, modify for PXI system
- document trip chains
- label circuit breakers
- design and implement SOE circuits, need additional wiring and relays
- prototype use of SOE module and relays in controls test stand - Done Dec-2011
- identify and connect to internal power supply trip chains where feasible
- improve voltage range and eliminate cross-talk on voltage tap channels Done Mar-2012 use PXI system
- Danfysik power supply
- implement dump resistor center-tap ground fault detector
- lockbox for door key
- lock/tag/try procedures for dump resistor
- procedures to check for dump resistor integrity and diode polarity prior to startup
- Quench detector
- need sub-coil inductances from Floyd/George - Done Dec-2011
- modify QD for final configuration
- test imbalance range adjustment in lab Done Nov-2012
- Instrumentation
- implement RS232 connections to all devices (e.g. vacuum gauges)
- list from Mark - Done Dec-2011
- Use RTI 435NBX instead of Point I/O serial modules
- Use RTI 490NBX for Ethernet/IP readout
- replace shunt with flux-monitoring sensor Done Feb-2012 use CEBAF board readout of ZFCT
- design and build breakout box
- implement RS232 connections to all devices (e.g. vacuum gauges)
- NI PXI fast DAQ
- test PXI system - Done Feb-2012
- connect to PLC, EPICS
- A-B PLC programming
- consider existing program a prototype, rework for 15-20 year lifetime
- send Josh to A-B training - Done Jan-2012
- use custom ("add-on") instructions to simplify everything
- use function block, structured text and ladder logic as appropriate
- add new channels, modify old ones according to latest channel assignments
- new cryo channels
- connect to Cryo PLC via ControlNet
- SOE module
- A-B HMI improvements
- SOE fault sequence screens
- other error screens
- Viewpoint
- get screens on the web
- security?
- EWEB
- create tag lists
- security?
- EPICS
- new channels
- UPS power
- solenoid controls racks
- Danfysik control circuits and contactor
- target? other cryo and vacuum systems?
- cooling systems (dewpoint)?
- downtime due to power loss is deciding factor
Notes
- max ramp rate in the hall is approximately 10V / 20H = 0.5 A/sec
Possible future improvements
- monitor selected circuit breakers so operators can quickly find them when they trip
