CHECK Gas Systems

 

  • All OK

 

ALICE

  • Ne level alarms to change
  • List excel done with Gianluca
  • GC analysis of TOF are ok: they are as expected

ATLAS

  • N2 Dewar refilled
  • Excel check-list on-going

CMS

  • CSC battery almost finished but second one is there. 2 new batteries will arrive next week
  • Elog 2368: started to check if the exhaust pressure regulation
  • DT pump: to plan intervention to change the membrane —> Andrea + Kacper

LHCb

  • PGS alarms blocked for gases not used

GENERAL

  • Beatrice checked with David for aging test: all new sensors of Airliquid have to go through aging test
  • Geraldine did some test of PGS alarm to have the name of the building in the SMS (needed for David’s equipe)
  • Discussion on SMS for warning

Actions:

  • Prepare a list of sensors in force mode —> Experiment technical responsible + Mara/Gianluca
  • To look at alarms and warning for the gas system ON —> Experiment technical responsible
  • To prepare a list of sensors not working or missing in PGS —> Experiment technical responsible
  • Excel file for alarms prepared weekly by Mara —> Experiment technical responsible to fill

 

 

 

REMINDER for when we will be back

 

ALICE

CPV

  • We have 3 lines input that are ok, and 3 lines output: in one there is not the return. LPh contacted Yuri

TPC

  • In the purifier the small thermic box triggered (also last year it happened) —> Patrick/LPh to check

TRD

  • Recuperation: missing two valves but there are present in the software
  • Purifier: to review if keep the safety valve or the rupture disk
  • Purifier: safety valve at the input where we have Ar or Ar/H2 at high pressure —> LPh to check with safety

 

ATLAS

MDT

  • Check overpressure in MDT chamber when there is a stop-start of the system
  • Only one convertisseur, one pump, etc from the system —> Patrick/Kacper to fix
  • Found a problem of grounding on pressure sensors: pressure sensors changed. Now to verify if the grounding problem is still there
  • Problem in the 2 vaisala of humidifier: several spikes present. Not clear why. Before the software upgrade they were not present

 

CMS

RPC

  • Michal changed the mother board in rack 67: now flow is 170 l/h (elog #2279) —> Andrea to check with new voegtlin red

DT

  • Change one motherboard in rack 61 but flow didn’t change (elog #2280) —> to try to recalibrate one set of flowcells
  • Difficult to re-start the gas system after power-cut —> to do some tests
  • Test for power cut and re-start for the exhaust line —> to do other tests

GEM

  • Andrea prepared a drawing for ME0 and check for space in UX —> Andrea to send an email to Michele

CSC

  • On-going regulation of PID for the exhaust —> Beatrice
  • Warning to set-up —> Beatrice/Michal/Roberto

 

LHCb

 

MWPC

  • Problem in the GC analysis of the mixer: not visible the correct gas mixture with both LF and HF. Probably an hardware problem (connection, valve, etc) to find —> Mara
  • Leak in Mixer and Exhaust. Only in Exhaust found but not repaired. Other not yet founded —> Patrick

RICH2

  • To inject Air —> Patrick to check with C. Frei
  • To add line for analysis “supply to detector”k

SciFi

  • Problem on 3-ways valve —> Patrick

PGS

  • Interlock of Ar/H2 does not work —> Michal/Patrick to check

 

GENERAL

 

  • Alarms/Errors in power supplies for all gas systems —> Patrick
