Status of Type IV Cables• Cables production

– resumed in February after 3 months stop– See ID week February ‘06

• Delivery of doubles harnesses completed (last week)– 2125 double harnesses (4250 cables)

• Installation– All racks in US side + 2 USA racks were installed last year by TC teams

(Russian)– Installation resumed at the end of March with a new TC team (French) – Very slow startup – Completion of USA side was expected by the end of May – Unlikely even with 2 teams (2 shifts) and with participation of Russian teams

• Connector in situ (CPE)– All cables (except for a few) in US15 completed on March 10– Most racks are tested – Very good yield– 2 techs returned on April 18 and currently working on one USA rack– Complete US side and continue racks in USA15 when full team will be back

Racks on Level 6US side

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 3

PP3• 4261 PP3 units needed

– 173 are spares– 139 empty shield cases– Standard subracks of 30 units– Mini subracks (of 5 units)– Special subracks (PP3 + empty cases)

Layout of each rack can be found at:http://www-atlas.lbl.gov/ciocio/SCTcables/Racks_Layout

• Much of the installation done but lots of work to complete all racks:– Most of subracks installed– Some subracks sitting by racks to be installed– Small fraction of cables partially plugged in– Rework for damages (due to installation)

• Parts missing:– 4 standard subracks– 3 special subracks– 2 mini subracks– Outer shells– 80 PP3 units

• Schedule still unknown but promised soon – NEED last parts ASAP

• Installation sequence in a sector is:– Tubes, fibres, heater cables, SCT cables, (Muon chambers), – TRT cables, pixel cables

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 6

Type II/III & PP1 – Production• INEO/Thurmelec are making type II-III cables in 2 steps:

1. double length harnesses as they receive information about the lengthstype II cable and type III splicedtype II FCI/JST connectors on both ends of double harness

2. Single length cables with FCT connector (PP3) are produced when length finalized with test cable measurement from cryostat to PP3 racks sector by sector

• Delivery rate reached the promised: 400 cables/week• We are ahead with cable preparation!• So far good quality• No fatal defect found on some cables (the color coat is gone is some section/pattern

but kapton insulation OK)

• PPB1 – clamps, clips, cable tray covers were late, not used yet during installation– Clamp mounting finalized today– Clip under revision

• PPF1 – most parts available– Found the best way to crimp group of drain wires in a ferrule and catch the ferrule with the

grub screws into clamp’s holes

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 7

Type II/III cables – Installation• About 1000 cables installed• ½ bundle /day/side/team 48 cables/day but can reach 100 in the future

• Problem with testing related to the grounding in cryostat (OK)• Mechanical problems to fit layers of 6 cables between clamp holder pins (all cables installed have been retrofit)• Clamp installation

Barrel todayEC final

• Details given in April SCTSG

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 8

SCT Readout Cables - Status• All 18 (SCT readout) cables for end-cap in sector 9

installed and tested, all OK (this was the first sector with SCT fibre cables).

• 18 barrel cables installed in sector 3 during last two weeks (9 on side A and 9 on side C). These were the first SCT barrel readout cables installed. Barrel cables are quite fragile due to a 3 meter long strip-back of the cable cladding at the end of the cables. No serious problems were encountered during the installation. The cables need to be tested, probably with the help of people coming from Oxford.

• 9 end-cap cables in sector 3 will be installed in the next phase, perhaps this week (6 cables on side A and 3 cables on side C).

• Sector 1 should be installed afterwards. There are 18 end-cap cables and no barrel cable.

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 9

FSI delivery cables and tubes• 38 cables• The first FSI delivery cable cut and prepared for the

installation in sector 3. The length of the cable taken from the EDH table.

• After the first cable is installed, 8 more cables will be cut, labeled and installed (i.e. all cables for sector 3). The lengths to cut will be determined from the first cable.

• The first FSI tube is going to be bent, cut and installed this week by the technicians.

• The drawings of the tubes are not precise and needed some modifications to respect the real situation on the cryostat flange

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 10

SCT DCS Cables• 128 type II and 40 type IV• All cables for the barrel are in the pit and ready for installation

• Sector 13: 24 cables are installed and tested• Sector 5: 24 cables are installed and tested

• 3 cables in sector 5 were damaged during installation (caught on sharp edge of cable tray) – repaired

• 20 cables to be installed in sector 3 are ready but installation should occur soon

• Installation of SCT DCS cables interleaved with ID DCS cables

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 11

Installation & Testing Activities• Type IV (2 people + Petr + Prague)

– Acceptance test– Test in rack after installation– Test of cut cables after connector in situ work– Plug-in cables into PS crates – test with feedtrough

• Type II-III Preparation (5 people + Vlastik + Kuo Ming)– Acceptance test (partial)– Visual inspection– Folding the shield and cut it the right amount, fix it – Organize boxes with right cables to send following installation sequence

• Type II-III Installation(2 people: Lars & Neil part time + Jacek)– Mount dPPB1 and dPPF1– For Barrel:

• Squeezing the cables to fit between pin and clamp holder• Plug-in of the delicate JST/FCI connectors to dPPB1• Placing the clamp (now), placing the clip (later)

– For Endcap:• crimp group of drain wires in a ferrule and catch the ferrule with the grub screws into clamp’s holes• Plug in the dPPF1

• Type II-III Testing (Alexandre + 1 person)

• PP3 (Scott was here for 2 months – need 2 people now)– Burn-in of units– Assembly into subracks– Installation into racks of subracks– Plug-in the cables to PP3

• Final test of whole chain (2 people)

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 12

Issues• PP3

– Damaged In the pit left by racks– Damaged In the racks after installation/plug-in of type IV by French team– Parts to finish assembly and installation too late

• Connector damage– In US15 they are left too long on the floor– Other cables installation interference

• Tester– Different flavor that work with different configuration of cable chain– Multiple laptops failure (ok now)– Several software updates to cope with different configurations (over last few months)– Getting parts in time

• Spares installation– 2 spare type ii-iii EC cables installed but too short – need splicing extension

• Defective dPPF1– Faulty cable was actually due to a bad channel on dPPF1 (that was marked color dots but it was used anyway)

• Type III installation & testing– Difficult conditions for testing because sequence of cables installed doesn’t match order in PP3 rack, cables are set aside and plug-in has to

happen for all cables when rack completed – Extra length to reroute on additional trays– Dedicated team (Russian) available to plug-in but need assistance (and all cables tested)

• Type IV installation – Slow– interference with type II-III installation– Extra interaction with new team

• Connector in situ– Communication with external company difficult - impossible to keep schedule as planned– The very first rack has 200 cables to reroute under the rack to absorb the extra length

• People

9 May 2006 A.Ciocio - SCTSG 13

Schedule• Type II-III installation (from Marzio) by mid-June• New schedule is expected this week • Likely to go until end of June

• Type IV installation end of May – going into June• Connector in situ/testing mid-June/end of June• PS crates mid-June (US side) – July (USA side)• PP3 assembly, installation end of May• All cables plugged into PP3 end of June

To meet this schedule we need continuous presence of people at CERN• Last couple of weeks went relatively well but

– Hard/inefficient to train/instruct/introduce so many people – Mistakes– Difficulties to direct people to tasks in the pit because

underground access not requested or level4A not taken before hand• Critical area in the type II-III acceptance installation and testing• SCT participation very valuable to add to people who are resident• NEED technical participation to go into July
