PS BGI Vertical meeting

Monday 20 Aug 2018, 10:30 → 11:30 Europe/Zurich

Present: Damien, Dominique, Gerhard & James.

 

** Magnet **

 

- Dominique has developed a design that meets the required specification for the instrument and maintains the same detector to vacuum flange width as the BGI-Horizontal. 

- The design includes 5mm of stay-clear between the vacuum chamber and magnet.

- Magnet design will include horizontal shielding plate, but this will not be produced unless required after operational experience with the instrument.

- Magnet will be be installed at PS SS84 January / February 2020.

- Ideally magnet, vacuum chamber and instrument should be able to be installed/removed independently. However, it is accepted that if necessary the vacuum chamber & instrument will be removed to allow for the installation/removal of the magnet. 

 

** Vacuum chamber and Instrument **

 

- The design based on the BGI-Horizontal provided by Damien is now in the hands of the Impedance Working Group (IWG) for beam impedance studies. 

- Action for James: Follow-up with IWG status of study and set date for IWG presentation.

- Current planning:

- End of September 2018: Gerhard will order material for vacuum chambers and flanges.

- End of November 2018: Production drawings ready for comment.

- End of December 2018: Production drawings signed.

- January 2019: Workshop planning.

- September 2019: Delivery of mechanical parts to BI.

- November / December 2019: Test installation of vacuum chamber at SS84.

- January / February 2020: Installation of magnet at SS84.

- April 2020: (Final) installation of vacuum chamber & instrument at SS84.
