Problems • The bad winding at the wire spool end causes quite some problem to the wire tension. • Main reason for thedelay is the supplementary amount of work to set-up the lab to pass from a production rate of 1 chamber/week to a rate of 2 chambers/week.
Status of production in Ferrara • M2R3: needed=48 (+4 spare) 49 chambers closed (updated 03-Mar-05). • Gas leakage: 42 chambers tested: 41 chambers are OK • HV training: 39 chambers tested: 36 with I < 20 nA/chamber @ 2.85 kV • 3 with wire-pads drawing current Built=49; (Leak + HV) OK=36; Unrecoverable=6; To be recovered: 4; To be tested= 3. Production rate increasing 2-2.5 ch/week

The container nearly full (90 chambers over 108) Last Friday we switched on a group of 18 M3R3 chambers (one trolley) using a single HV channel. These chambers have been OFF and flushed with Argon for several months. ~10 days ago we began to flush them with gas mixture 40/40/20. We reached 2.75 kV (in 2 days) without any problem.

Produzione attuale di MWPC PNPI 600 chambers (M2/3/4-R4) LNF 248 chambers (M3/M5-R3, M5-R4, M1-R3/4) Ferrara 246 chambers (M2/4-R3, M4/5-R2, M1R4) Firenze 218 chambers (M5R4 and M1R4) CERN 134 chambers (M2/3-R1/2, M4/5-R1, M1R2) Total 1446 (circa il 6% di spares)
Produzione attuale di MWPC The 10% milestone (140 ch) has been reached on 16.11.2004 (delay 7.5 months) Updated 14.March.2005 • Total: 288 chambers built and tested • Expected production rate is ~ 2 ch/week in INFN and CERN and 4 ch/week in PNPI • Total rate INFN+CERN+PNPI-1 should be 12 chambers/week Production is progressing well : Since last LHCb week +140 chambers built – 10.7 ch/week [12 expected, Christmas included – was 7.5 ch/week]
Chamber preparation prior to installation • 1. Preparation in labs: • FEE electronics, LV and Faraday Cage must be assembled on chamber (and tested). • Part of this work will be done at the production sites: • at Roma-2 and LNF for whole INFN production, at PNPI and at CERN. • The first chambers will be equipped as soon as the CARDIAC boards will be available. • 2. Shipping of MWPCs: INFN chambers to CERN: in special trolleys with shock absorbers stocked in a container (see photo). • Shipping of PNPI chambers: in wooden boxes (CSC-CMS like) • 3. Tests at CERN: • Storage at CERN: about 200 m2 available. Stored under gas flux. • Tests: check no-damage in transportation: test on FEE and last test with HV\ • We have yet to deploy a detailed plan for these tests: • check the time and the personnel needed; • logistics at CERN and the infrastructure needed (gas, HV, etc...)
Concerns : • PNPI2 not yet fully started (should have happened in January) • Too slow test in FI/RM2 (HV + source) and FE/RM2 (source) : if there is a problems, it is identified too late ! • Schedule tight but not unreasonable – Room for recovery • CERN and FI should put their data on a DB !
Quality controls: MWPC specifications • (From W. Riegler simulations, EDR – CERN – April 2003) • The drift velocity is saturated I.e. it has a very weak dependence on the electric field. Therefore we mainly worry about gas gain variations that can move the working point within the plateau. • If G0 is the nominal gas gain, requiring : • G0/1.25 < G < G0*1.25 (in 95% of the gap area) • G0/1.50 < G < G0*1.50 (in 5% of the gap area) translates into specifications of • gap (panel planarity): 95% in ±90 mm5% in±180 mm • pitch: 95% in ±50 mm 5% in±100 mm • wire y-offset: 95% in ±100 mm5% in±200 mm • wire plane y-offset: 95% in ±100 mm5% in±200 mm
Wire pitch measurement The wire position is precisely determined by the pitch of the wiring machine combs.The requirement on the wire pitch (WP) is: WP = 2 mm ± 50 µm (95% of pitches) ± 100 µm (5% of pitches) The WP is measured with anautomatic device, based on two cameras scanning the panel. An accuracy of about 20 µm is obtained. 2 mm±50 µm 211 ± 5 pixels. Sample image from scanning device Fraction of wires with wrong pitch < 1 per mil The measure of the gas leakage, is obtained by correcting the DP(t) behavior by using the data of the reference chamber.
Wire tension measurement (I) The wire mechanical tension must be in the range 50÷90 g in order to provide a good electrostatic stability. The tensionis found by measuring the wire resonance frequency. Different methods are used. LNF: oscillations of the wire to be tested are induced by applying a periodic HV (about 900 V) with a frequency of 300 ÷ 400 Hz, between the wire and a non-oscillating sense wire parallel and close (~1 mm) to it. As a consequence, the capacitance C between the two wires oscillates. The maximum variation of C occurs at the resonance of the wire. Resolution is ~1 g and a M3R3 panel (660 wires) is measured in < 1 hour. The measure of the gas leakage, is obtained by correcting the DP(t) behavior by using the data of the reference chamber.
Photodiode Laser Mechanical excitation Photodiode wire Panel Laser Mechanical Excitation Wire Tension Measurement (II) This method has been developed together with Firenze and Roma II The signal is sent to a PC soundcard, a FFT is applied. The resonance frequency is searched between 310 and 600 Hz (for M2R3 panels). The measurement takes about 2 sec/wire ( 2 panels ~1200 wires in 40 min )
Gas leakage test (I) In order to minimize the gas refill rate, the maximum leakage allowed for each chamber is 2 mbar/h. To verify the gas tightness of a chamber, we inflate it with nitrogen up to an overpressureDP of 5 mbar. Then, we recordDP as a function of time, during about one hour. The measurement is sensitive to variations of the external temperature. In order to correct this effect, a second chamber is used as a reference. The measure of the gas leakage, is obtained by correcting the DP(t) behavior by using the data of the reference chamber.
HV training and Dark current Procedure for conditioning of the chambers: • Start with HV+ and go to HV at which the current reaches 200 - 300 nA and does not show the tendency to fast decrease (Normally this happens @ 2.6 - 2.7 kV) 2) Switch to HV- and start from HV=0 to increase first quite fast (200 V/min) up to 1.5 kV. 3) Increase HV slowly till the current jumps to some value which SHOULD NEVER EXCEED 3-4 mA. 4) Stop and wait till current drops to 50-100 nA. Normally this takes small time. Then make the next step (~100 V) and so on. The training stops at HV= 2.15 kV. The procedure with the inverse polarity takes not more than one hour. After that they go to the normal polarity. In most cases HV=2.95 kV can be reached after such training. If not, a second round with the inverse polarity can be performed. Anyhow, the whole procedure allows to reach 2.95 kV in one day. LNF : all chambers with dark current <10nA/chamber @ 2.85 kV PNPI : all chambers <100nA/chamber@ 2.95kV [Ar(40)/CO2(50)/CF4(10)]

Test with cosmic rays (LNF) • The use of a cosmic ray stand allows to measure: • efficiency • time resolution • average hit-multiplicity • electronics noise • The system allows to house and test up to six chambers simultaneously (600 channels). The trigger is given by three large scintillators (one above and two below the chambers) read out on both sides.The trigger rate is of about 15 Hz and its time resolution is about 2.8 ns. time spectrum We tested only few chambers, because we do not have still the final FEE. We plan to test all (or part of the) chambers, after the final FEE and the Faraday cage will be mounted on them.This is still under discussion. The measure of the gas leakage, is obtained by correcting the DP(t) behavior by using the data of the reference chamber.
