HF UPGRADE PROJECT Y. Onel PM October 15th 2012
Recent Highlights and News-I • The PMT deliveries are now completed. The PMT and Base Boards System tests with a QIE system re- started at CERN-904. • We have started with the board production. We are testing new boards and shipping regularly to CERN. • I have formed a sub-committee to prepare this purchase thru CAEN and CERN E-pool and members are S.Lusin, German and Alexi. We have requested the necessary funds from the US -Upper management for this. • We were asked to update our original resource loaded MSP file. We will work with Julie Whitmore. • We have also submitted our US funding request during LS1 operations.
Recent Highlights and News-II There is an agreement for a new cable purchases– Thanks Chris Tully, Jeremy Mans and Pawel De Barbaro for this. There is also a strong support from Austin and Magnus on this. Special thanks to Joel helping on this. HF new front end integration was presented by Ianos to the HCAL as well as to the CMS TC. Terry Shaw and Ianos have finalized the specs for the new cables and we got the quotes from the company. We are finalizing the purchase agreement with the company.
PMT Deliveries • We have all the PMT’s delivered and have the data---- our group is re-checking all the parameters of these characterization measurements. The DB loading was done by George and Garrett . • The PMT's are shipped regularly to CERN. We have an automated shipping procedure from Iowa Shipping, Customs and CERN receiving. Several people are on this e-mail tracking program list from Iowa and CERN Site and monitoring the shipping and delivery. • We stopped our shipping for about 2 weeks in August 6th since there was a concern at CERN receiving our PMT's securely. We are keep shipping daily from Iowa to CERN. Our last day of shipping from Iowa will be during the week of October 15th hence hoping to complete our 1800 PMT shipping task (we will keep the spares at Iowa for the PCB testing- the number at CERN will be 1728 to populate all the ROBOXes)
HCAL MILESTONES • HF PMT's are shipped to CERN 10/15/2012 • HF PMT Boards QC testing 100% at Iowa 11/1/2012 • All done, tested and delivered to CERN 12/7/2012 (expecting a delay for the production of the base and adaptor boards which includes 20% spares. However we expect that 216 will be available by January 10 to populate all of the ROBOXes). • 25% - at CERN by Oct.31 • 50% - by Nov. 31 • 75% - by Jan. 10 • 100% - by Feb. 10 (Base boards will be delivered paired with Adapter boards). • ((So with these we are at 26% of production with an average rate of 4% a week (10 boards). That is 6 weeks to 50% (mid November) and 18 weeks to 100% ( Mid February). Fortunately Janina is working now (for the rest of October) 5 days a week for HF, so we could hope on 25 boards a week for the (almost) 3 weeks left, which moves us a month forward. What we can do to increase our production rate ??))
Delivery Status • The things are moving well in the "Base Boards" world. We receive about 9-10 boards each Thursday ( picked-up by Burak) and our group tests these between Friday and Monday. We then ship these on Tuesdays to CERN. Once we have enough boards at CERN. We can stop shipping small quanties and make a large shipment. I estimate that we will have enough boards at CERN around early January to populate all of the ROBOXes. • Regarding the ROBOX components we estimate is that 70-75 % components are produced already. (see PM schedule)- we will start shipping the components of the boxes by late December. Ianos has to decide how you will pack them and ship these. We will finalize our shipping plans when he is back in Iowa. We have so far no show stoppers and we are on time. • Regarding the PMT's– We are planning to declare a victory this week. We will be then characterized all 1800 PMT's--and put in the HCAL DB and the full amount 1728 PMT's for the HF +/- will be shipped to CERN. We will keep some spares here at Iowa until all base boards are shipped. (for the base board QC tests).
CABLES • We have our re-quote we have from Winchester. It is for $370K, which is about $50K over our original estimates. We believe it is a fair quote. • The company is working on the engineering drawings and they will be sending a list of the changes to be implemented which we requested. These are all changes made to protect the cable connectors and contacts and ease the installation. • We are almost ready with the contract and the change order is already signed.
LS1 Cabling • We planned to benefit from LS1 to do as much as possible to prepare HF for the future upgrade (multi-anode readout). During LS1 we target for the following objectives: • Consolidation and clean up of cables and services. (~8 weeks) Includes removal of existing front end signal cables Includes the time spent on cables and services from other subsystems. • Modification, preparation of HF structures for cable storage (~2 weeks) • Prepare racks as much as possible for future electronics. (~1 week) Could be absorbed in consolidation step above (~8 weeks) • Install new cables (~1 week/quadrant + 1 week for first one = 9 weeks)
New HV Purchase After considering the recommendation of the CMS HF HV Micro PRR Review, we decided to purchase the CAEN main frame SY4527 model in the first opportunity and if possible by the end of this month or latest during the CERN Pool purchases using the 2012 price list. We would also like to place an order for A1538D through CERN, even if we cannot do it directly now because there is no list price for the A1538D and the model it is not yet in the CERN-CAEN contract agreement. We will do it through an official CAEN offer for the equipment, and then CERN could negotiate with CAEN the inclusion of the model in the agreement, in a yearly based addendum. We will initially just buy one for testing, since the CAEN could deliver the first unit by the beginning of next year. We would like to make our request now for this and sign all other agreements with CAEN and CERN Pool as soon as possible. Our current thinking is to get the first A1538 as soon as possible and after testing it to decide between the A1538D only or A1538D+A1511B solution. During the LS1 testing we should be OK using the existing CAEN supplies and/or A1535 units (3.5KV-3mA) since we are not going to test the HF + or - at the same time nor more then 1/2 of the HF+ or - until July 2013 so we have a reasonable time window before we have the final modules in hand.
HV Installation • We plan to finish HV power supplies installation by May 1st, 2013 latest.Thisis based on the estimate that mid May could be the earliest to power the first HF quadrant. • Also based on availability of CAEN PSUs. • Alexi M. and + helper will finish the installation • German M. will commission the new system with existing PVSS. • ~1 week to do installation. • ~1 week for commissioning. • This planning assumes that the HF HV patch panel and interlock interfaces have been produced, tested, and ready for installation (as well as CAEN system).
Brazil • The current list From Brazil is • Rio-CBPF: GilvanAlves, Maria Elena Pol, Marcos Correa, ThiagoMartins, Mario Vaz • Rio-UERJ: Alberto Santoro, Jorge Molina, Antonio Vilella, HelioNogima, DilsonDamiao, Sandro Fonseca • Sao Paulo-Unicamp: EdmilsonManganotte, Jose Chinellato

HF Upgrade Project Funding FY 2013 • We provided an excel file describing of our request for the LS1 operations and the details of new HV system cost estimate. • Need new HV budgeted in the project files ( sent in a request for a change-order) • New cables budgeted in the project files (change order is done) • Need a minimum of 200 additional PMT’s to meet DOE “Spare” 15% guidelines LS1 2013-14 ( US and International collaborators ??)
