The Status and Milestones of the VeLo module Burn-in System
Milestones
Milestones achieved are listed in a weekly basis:
14th of Febraury-16th of March:
- Mechanical:
- The square segments of the cooling block have lids soldered onto them. The 4mm copper pipes and square
blocks acting as U turns for the coolant have been made.
- Vacuum support structure arrived from KJN and has been assembled.
- Still to be done:
- Add 3/8" fittings to the cooling block.
- Attach cooling block to the module frame.
- Module frame.
- Hybrid Support. Attached to the side opposite of the cooling block.
- Module frame platform.
- Weld Module frame platform and Chamber Lid modifications (attach heli coils).
- Vacuum Chamber Lid Carriage.
- Rail Platform for the Burn-in system (We can pot connectors in).
- Repeater Board Crate (only side panels and location on the Burn-in system)
- Thermal Camera Locator.
- Vacuum pump box.
- Clean Room module transfer jig.
- Vacuum:
- Calibration factors for the Pennnig pressure gauge have been obtained allowing the voltage measured to be
displayed as pressure.
- Cooling:
- The order for Julabo was placed on the 3rd of March. The company expects to deliver on the 22nd of March.
- Electronics:
- The first EzyLV board to power up that has been made by IBLS will be delivered today after the last 3 versions
contained errors. John will populate it as soon as we get them.
- Operated an electronic single hybrid. Having problems configuring the beetles but it has been verified that
Command clock and the I2C commands arrive to the repeater board.
- Software:
- Communication between the DIM server in the credit card PC and a client has been verified in Glasgow.
- A linux partition was created for the DAQ PC. There still a number of issues still to be resolved.
- Niko promised LHCb Online Gaudi by the 17th of March.
- Building 186:
- Clean room gear has been delivered.
- No nitrogen will be used in the cabinets or in the boxes housing the modules.
9th-14th of Febraury:
- Mechanical:
- Ray has made two out of the five segments of the cooling block .
(expect to finish by the end of the week. Next week will be the modification of the
chamber lid)
- Firm quotes on the vacuum chamber structure. Order within a day or two.
- Vacuum System:
- The following has been ordered:
- Two cryogenic fluid feedthroughs (three weeks leadtime).
- One 50pin feedthrough (10 days leadtime).
- Blanks for the feedthroughs (3 days leadtime).
- Connections for the oil filter that is located between the rotary and turbo pump (3 days leadtime).
All the vacuum connections for one chamber are accounted for.
- Cooling System:
- The following has been ordered:
- Two insulated hoses.
- adapters so they can be connected to the cryogenic feedthroughs.
- Teflon 3/8inch flexible tubing and swagelok connectors.
All the cooling connections for one chamber are accounted for.
- Electronic System:
- Schematics for the Rpt Ezy LV board are done and John has started on the layout.
- Software:
- Packets from TELL1's Gibabit ethernet card have been read.
- Building 186:
- The microscope to be used during the receiving inspection has been located.
