Reminder on Installation Schedule (ALICE Forum
June 2002)

• Install Muon magnet directly into experimental
  hall in temporary position
• No pre-installation of magnet, absorber, Muon
  filter, Muon chambers in SXL2
• Assembly of absorber at Point 2
• Assembly line in SX2 if agreement with Sarov
• No displacement of TPC and clean-room
• Keep clean room in SXL2
• Installation of TPC / ITS / Vacuum chamber
• This installation has a duration of 6 months and
  is regarded as a block
• We assume that no other activity can proceed in
  parallel
• TDR / TOF / PHOS have two installation periods
• Period 1 Before TPC/ITS/Va
• Period 2 After the installation of TPC/ITS/Va
  (Vacuum chamber in place)

Installation Phases

• Phase 1 now 01.06.2005
• Large structures for Muon arm
• Phase 2 01.06.2005 01.05.2006
• TRD/TOF/PHOS/HMPID
• Phase 3 01.05.2006 01.11.2006
• TPC/ITS/Vacuum
• Phase 4 01.11.2006 01.04.2007
• Commissioning
• PMD and FMD, V0, T0, Si3 on RB24 side
• Last TOF modules
• Shielding / machine interface / close L3 magnet
  etc

Installation of detectors into space-frame

• Installation shaft 7 x 15 m2
• Working position outside the magnet
• Installation in the space-frame
• 1st Period outside / inside the L3 magnet
• 2nd Period after TPC/ITS/Va installation

4
Installation mile stones

• Close L3 magnet back door
• Best guess to-day is beginning of 2004
• Installation of space-frame
• In the new planning the space-frame is moved from
  SXL2 and installed in the experimental area in
  June 2005
• I.e. pre-installation testing in SXL2, involving
  the space-frame, must end at this date
