3. Mitigating T2P damage risk at Schlumberger test T2P damage at previous bench test: • >25’ free fall dislodged battery, halting data recording. Changes made: • Battery compression spring – holds battery in place. • CDAQ strain relief – sheared 15-pin adapter more firmly affixed to CDAQ board. Proposed Drop Height: • On IODP deployment likely ‘free fall’ distance is ~3m. • At Schlumberger test drop height will be 10’ • Recreates similar deployed conditions • Use collar to limit fall
