sPHENIX discussion of the superconducting solenoid

["Phillips, David B" <phillips AT bnl.gov>]

Kin,

 

My understanding is that Paul’s transport support for the valvebox extension can’t be installed until after the cryostat is lifted from the return steel to the yellow transport frame.

So it may be better not to close the “new” doghouse to reduce the weight on the extension until after the cryostat has been moved to the transport frame.

Hi Tom Tallerico,

 

As you can see below, Carl & Fred & Joe D’ambra have finished with the voltage taps.    ( Thanks to all of them ! )

 

Please proceed as we have discussed to check on the C-connectors next Monday (by R. Meier).  When you finish

checking, please let us know so that we can ask Ray Ceruti to close the doghouses.

Hi,

 

   Joe Dambra and I have finished this

stage of testing of the sPhenix Magnet

Voltage Taps. The magnet hi-potted

to 520 V, and all the taps are present.

Ray can finish closing the old dog-house

and whatever is planned for the new

dog-house. When the old dog-house is

completely closed, and all the work

on the new dog-house is complete,

I think another round of testing should

be done to insure everything is OK before

we put the magnet away for its long sleep.

   I think we should buy some test equipment

so we can do this sort of testing on our own.
