- Bill went step by step over the procedure (linked above) for bending/cutting the cooling tubes and installing the manifolds. Beni was concerned about the radiation hardness of the Tygon tubing that will be used for cooling. We expect to have 1kRad for 10 years and this is not a problem for the Tygon (Bill).

- Test of the installation cart deformation: we don't need the survey people, will just get the tool from Jim to measure the distance between the rails.

- Cooling system tests: Bill wants to test his ANSI model using one loop with 22 pre-amps. So far we can't find spare pre-amp back-brackets needed for the tests, but will find a solution to that. Eugene was concerned the viscosity of the water and Fluorinert are different, but Bill explained actually they are very similar. Beni: more important are the impedances and this is what this test is going to check. Bill has results from ANSI for both, water and Fluorinert.  
  
- 208V in 126 for the chiller will cost us $4.5k. At the same time Beni mentioned that there's 208V already and he's using it for one of the crates. He may need it also for another two crates when he loads them fully with electronics. Beni will check how much current is needed for that. Bill will check also what is the current needed for the chiller (it has breaker at 20A). Eugene insisted to consult also with Giles about the codes, if we can do it temporary by ourself.

- One package test with full electronics: The water chiller is 1kW which is more than enough for one package that needs ~0.25kW. Eugene was concerned that water may leak and cause damages, and that's why we decided to use Fluorinert. Unlike inside the magnet, we will have access to all the tube connections. Also, Bill wants to test the tubing for leakage with gas and then to put water there.

February 28, 2013 FDC meeting

Agenda

  1. Production Construction Tracking (Dave)
    • Spare parts
    • Spare wire plane testing
    • Package #2 status
  2. Rebaselining update [1](Lubomir)
  3. Engineering (Bill)
    • Cooling system test
  4. Electronics (Chris, Nick)
  5. Tests at EEL126 FDC E-log (Beni)
  6. Other

Minutes

Participants: Eugene, Dave, Chris, Nick, Simon, Beni, and Lubomir.

Production

- Dave for the spare parts: working on the last cathodes #87, 88, 89. These have been tensioned and we are working now on the daughter cards. We will build also an extra-spare cathode #90; the foils have been glued for it.

- As Casey proposed after the collaboration meeting, he replaced the six deadened wires (deadened area of 6cm diameter) of wire plane #2 with new wires. This will allow us to make 7.8cm deadened area, that is needed for the spare package. The wires are glued, will be soldered tomorrow and the tension tested.

- Spare wire plane #6 with wires strung but without HV caps, has been tested: 600/-60nA at 2100/-500V. Now Anatoly is installing the caps.

- Package #2: the grounding and the cooling tubes have been installed. Chris and Nick will come on Monday to do the HV connections. So far the package is still sitting on the mounting table.

Rebaselining update

- We are filling the html templates that Eugene created for each activity. Where available we link documents with more details (see the file linked above and click on the 25211191 activity for ex.). Eugene wanted to have all the activities finished in this manner by the middle of the next week.

Engineering

Bill was not at the meeting but some of the questions at the meeting were clarified after the meeting by him.

- Due to the problems with the power in 126 (see below), Bill proposed to use a water chiller borrowed from the FEL both for the cooling system test and for the test of one package with full electronics in 126. The chiller requires some fixing that will be done in 5-10 days.

- Cooling system tests: Bill wants to test his ANSI model using one loop with 22 pre-amps. So far we can't find spare pre-amp back-brackets needed for the tests, but will find a solution to that. Eugene was concerned the viscosity of the water and Fluorinert are different, but Bill explained actually they are very similar. Beni: more important are the impedances and this is what this test is going to check. Bill has results from ANSI for both, water and Fluorinert.

- One package test with full electronics: The water chiller is 1kW which is more than enough for one package that needs ~0.25kW. Eugene was concerned that water may leak and cause damages, and that's why we decided to use Fluorinert. Unlike inside the magnet, we will have access to all the tube connections. Also, Bill wants to test the tubing for leakage with gas and then to put water there.

- 208/240V power in 126: according to Jason Willoughby there are only 3 spaces left in the panel board which is enough for either (1) one 3-phase 208V receptacle, or (2) three 1-phase 240V receptacles.
