Description
This talk will present the changes resulting from the move from the MCR to the CCC
for the PS access control system and the displacement of the SPS access consoles in
to the CCC respectively. The PS access system has been modified to be able to
operate with a console located 4 km’s away. A project to upgrade and replace the PS
secondary areas access control has been launched. The same system will be also used
for the SPS Experimental areas access control system upgrade.
The SPS access system itself will not be modified for the 2006 runs but a number of
compensatory measures will have to be added in order to comply with the INB status
of the facility. These compensatory measures range from more limited access
opportunities to more stringent patrol procedures to a much stricter enforcement of
the use of emergency exits. The compensatory measures will later be followed by a
major upgrade of the SPS access system and certain preparations for this upgrade
will have to be made during 2006.
A brief overview of the functional tests and validations planned for both the PS
and SPS systems to ensure that they work as expected after the various
modifications will also be given.
