Status del commissioning del gas @ P5 • Il sistema finale funziona ed è stabile sulla W0. Dal 20 aprile aggiunta la W2 (in entrambi i casi e solo per ragioni di costi, ci stiamo limitando alla torre near: 6 settori). Le camere della W0 sono ON (sul sistema finale) dal 10 aprile. • Previsto un sistema di interlock collegato al sistema di HV in caso di stop del sistema di gas. • La qualità della miscela è costantemente monitorata con: GC, misuratore di O2 e H2O la concentrazione di aria nella miscela che torna dalle camere è a livelli piuttosto bassi • L'umidificatore è in funzione e stiamo monitorando l'umidità del gas sia dopo l'umidificatore, sia a livello del distributore sulla W0 (2 canali hanno sensori di umidità sulla linea di supply e su quella di return). • L'umidità relativa della miscela è 40%. • La temperatura è di circa 20 C. Il flusso per canale di almeno 15 l/h. • Entrambi i filtri sono in uso: la miscela che torna dalle camere passa attraverso i filtri e va in aria per ora (open loop). Il gas viene analizzato regolarmente prima e dopo i filtri. • Se non ci saranno maggiori intoppi, inizieremo il ricircolo verso la metà di maggio (dopo circa un mese di run in open mode). Partiremo con una frazione di miscela nuova dell'ordine del 40-50%. PV-8 maggio 2008 • Status of Gas System
Gas monitoring tools Oracle Portal (framework) e Web Based Monitoring (Interfaccia) usati per accedere offline alle informazioni immagazzinate nel DB OMDS (database generale dei rivelatori dell’esperimento) da PVSS • High Voltage • Current and Temp. • Gas Flow • Plot over time • L’interfaccia Web Based Monitoring è usata per il monitoraggio offline delle correlazioni tra gas flow e corrente durante il commissioning • I dati (HV, Corrente, flow IN , Flow OUT) sono trasferiti ad una lista di utenti ogni 8 ore con le informazioni delle 16 ore precedenti per tutti i rivelatori di ogni ruota.

GAS system status @ ISR Status @ ISR (CERN Gas Group (Roberto Guida) + Gruppo RPC) • Le correnti stanno lentamente aumentando (i filtri non sono mai stati rigenerati dallo scorso luglio). L'aumento è stato molto graduale, non repentino come la scorsa volta e solo per alcune DG. • La concentrazione di aria nel loop è sostanzialmente uguale a quella della miscela nuova. Con il GC non si vedono particolari extra-componenti. • Sono stati predisposti diversi gorgogliatori per il campionamento del gas in soluzione. • La stazione per la misura dei fluoruri è pronta e funzionante. • finite le misure in argon, ripartiremo con filtri nuovi (in particolare sostituiamo il setaccio molecolare 5A con il 3A). nel nuovo ciclo, saranno collegate anche le 10 Single gap nuove ed anche tre delle camerette del "gas gain monitoring". PV-8 maggio 2008 • Status of Gas System
I rivelatori del Gas Gain Monitoring sono in operazione all’ISR, in corso l’integrazione DCS/PVSS/xDAQ Analisi preliminari della miscela durante i test di ricircolo hanno mostrato la presenza in tracce di elementi metallici, probabilmenti rilasciati dai filtri durante o dopo la saturazione Differenti procedure per lo studio della cinetica chimica dei filtri. Sebbene i filtri debbano essere caratterizzati chimicamente il setup utilizzato è capace di operare correttamente nel detector.

GAS system commissioning plan • Steps for each wheel: • Flow cell equalization • 100% mixture in fill mode operation (6 sectors) with current and noise monitoring • 50% mixture in closed mode (6 sectors) for 1 month with current and noise monitoring Goal : 1/2 Barrel (6 sectors/wheel) in recirculation mode (50% fresh gas) by end of May. All barrel wheels in recirculation mode (50% fresh gas) by end of July. PV-8 maggio 2008 • Status of Gas System
Conclusion and status at startup • All hardware (HV/LV) in place in May • Trigger system ready for all wheels by end of May (now 50% installed) • Tower test done on 10/10 towers. All hardware chain fully commissioned. • 4 main hardware problems (chamber off) @ LHC start up: 3 chambers with big gas leak (W0/RB3/S8, W+2/RB4/S8, W-2/RB1/S7) 1 chamber with LV problem (W-1/RB4/S6) Action: Chambers to be extracted and checked at first shutdown. • 3 chambers with gas leaks but OPERABLE (W0/RB1/S1, W0/RB3/S2 , W+1 RB4) • Gas leak tests done three times on all chambers after installation. • GAS system commissioning will require a lot of effort since also chamber performance must be checked in parallel. No enough experts available. • Goal is to have full system fully commissioned in re-circulation mode (high % fresh gas) by July. • Local commissioning with TTU ongoing. • Full system commissioned with cosmic runs by July • More and more slices of the system integrated in the CMS Global Runs PV-8 maggio 2008 • Sommario Commissioning

Detector Status: gas leak report W+ 1, W+2, W-1 : 12 chambers with gas leak replaced W0 one chamber has a serious leak we will try to operate in open mode. Gas leak tests redone on W0, W+1, W+2 (in 1.5 months!) after wheel movement or after operation on the wheel (ex. Cabling , scaffolding…) : Several connections re-done. 2 new chambers with gas leak: RB4/S1/W+1 (SISTEMATO provvisoriamente) RB4/S8/W+2 W-2 ongoing
Chambers with problems @ Nov. 2007 System cannot handle the red cases (chamber does not keep any pressure). For the black cases it is possible to compensate the leak with the higher flow.
Gas circuit To equalize the gas flow between two gaps we use polycarbonate T and L junctions with flow reducers. Tygon tubes connect T and L connectors to the gas inlets.

W+1 We found the following problems: • In one chamber we found a broken gas inlet (polycarbonate, glued on chamber) in the gas input circuit of the forward gap. Chamber repaired. 2) In one chamber we found a broken "L" connector (connecting two external pipes) . The connector was in gas input circuit of the backward gap . Chamber repaired. 3) In one chamber we found a broken "L" connector (connecting two external pipes) . The connector was in input circuit of the backward gap . We also found a broken “T” connector in the gas output circuit . Chamber repaired. 4) In the two chambers with small leaks we found that the frame of the gap (polycarbonate glued on the gap) presented a small leak, that we could only localize by the gas sniffer. We could recover the second double gap in both chambers (we kept them as spares).

NOTE: Leak tests have been performed in all chambers during construction phase, at ISR, after coupling, before and after installation. A difference between input flow and output flow in some flow cells in the gas racks was observed already during MTCC. But the instability of calibration of flow cell system in the gas racks prevented us to rely on the flow cell readout. Also the good performances of the chambers during MTCC, local commissioning and Global Runs did not help to discover the problem.
