      The LHC accelerator being based on superconducting devices, the availability of it’s cryogenic system is crucial for it’s global performance. From the beginning, monitoring our availability has been part of our standard practices, allowing for continuous progress. After briefly describing pre-LS1 facts and tools, we will describe what is being done during LS1 in perspective of restart...

      From the powering side, the biggest risk to LHC availability is the current FGC2 implementation, and its sensitivity to radiation. If we run as we are, we will likely abort almost every mission prematurely due to FGC2 failure. A next generation FGClite is being designed to replace the FGC2 in areas which are exposed to radiation. Of some 1600 Power Converter Controllers installed at CERN...

    4. 5. Magnet protection and interlocks
      Stephane Gabourin (CERN)

    5. 6. Availability of LHC Beam Instrumentation Systems
      Mr Lars Jensen (CERN)
      28/11/2013, 11:30
      The presentation will follow-up from the MPP Workshop in Annecy and cover reliability issues for BI systems at the LHC. Emphasis will be put on the interlocked systems (BLMs and SR6 BPMs) which have a direct impact on the beam permits while a general overview for other critical systems with lessons learn during LHC run #1 will be given.
