Minutes

Present: Elliott W, Josh B, Mark S.


Equipment Orders

  • Mark still has to order rack parts.
  • Mark will produce a desired equipment list in priority order.
  • Josh has received everything he ordered (SOE, 435NBX, etc).


Solenoid Controls Redesign

  • Jonathan and Rao produced a preliminary P&I diagram, need feedback from Scot et al. concerning controls wiring.
  • Function of some valves has changed.
  • Order for new vessel will go out soon.
  • Mark will order (has ordered?) the shunt replacement.
  • We still don't have a good strategy for coil tap signal isolation.
  • We expect Giles will work on bringing UPS power to the hall, a 220V 30A subpanel seems reasonable.
  • Still don't know the coil inductances, still working on alternative quench detectors.
  • Mark will design the new ground fault detector using the existing dump resistor.
  • FMEA will help determine the level of redundancy needed (contactor, QD, diodes, UPS power to power supply, etc).
  • Yi tested the NI 8-chan (separate ADC for each channel) fast-daq board and is very happy. No crosstalk seen up to high sampling rates.
