List of responsibilities

• 1. Production tasks
• Long term test of modules
• mile stone 200 phase
• from production start to middle summer 2002
• ( L3 W. Beaumont)
• long term petal test
• from summer 2002 until end of production
  together with IIHE Brussels (P.Vanlaer,
  W.Beaumont, C.Vander Velde)
• It is not foreseen for the moment to have petal
  long term test and module long term test at the
  same time. With the available man power and
  infrastructure we can handle this if needed.

Infrastructures

• 28 m2 Class 10.000 clean room (September 2001)
  (module testing and storage , diagnosis)
• Ultra dry air facility 200 l/h for cold
  box(September 2001) Now with nitrogen.

Storage

• for incoming modules Cupboard.
• long term storage for tested modulesNot defined
  yet. Reserved 3m2 for this( CHF 2500)

Instrumentation

• test setup see list.
• Microscope

Human resources

• Senior Physicists
• V. Zhukov (0.5 FTE) 1)data quality checks , data
  base
• investigation of possible failures
• Engineers
• W. Beaumont ( 0.4 FTE) 1)
• supervision , logistics
• investigation of possible failures
• E. de Langhe
• operation and maintenance of test system
• Technicians
• Open position (1 FTE )
• operation of test station, data logging and
  module handling.
• 1) Not including general development and
  maintenance of the long term test setup software.

Money resources

• No core money will be requested to complete the
  foreseen module long term setup.

Status test setup and activities

• Long term module test
• Setup is running with prototype cold box and
  "alpha" version of the software.
• Connections to database in advanced phase
• Finalizing software.
• Ready to do long term module test for one or two
  module with the existing system when UTRI boards
  available
• Procurement of standard items before September
  2001 .

Concerns

• No modules available to commissioning the test
  setup. Grounding problems can be a problem. Hope
  experience with the system test setup at CERN
  will give hints how to tackle the problems
• Designs transportation plates, boxes are not
  frozen in detail. Can have consequences for the
  mechanics of the cold box
• Delivery of cold box for 10 modules can be
  delayed
• Control of our CAEN HV system (old controller )
