5. Gas mixture distribution: Each distribution panel: 6 supply (outer diameter 8 mm) and 6 return (outer diameter 10 mm). The gas distribution is divided in: ▫ panels for neutral mixtures (type A) ▫ panels for mixtures that might contain flammable gases (type B). Gas service area ▫6 panels type A ▫2 panels type B Irradiation bunker ▫6 panels type A ▫2 panels type B Preparation area ▫3 panels type A ▫1 panels type B 11/07/2014Ernesto, Roberto PH-DT-DI gas service5 Gas mix distribution Construction on-going

14. 11/07/2014Ernesto, Roberto PH-DT-DI gas service14 Conclusions – start-up version First version to start-up the facility: 1.20 distribution panels 2.Simplified version of control rack (basic functionality like connection to remote pvss interface for recording flows, gas systems status, …) 3.2 gas mixing racks for the fixed installations (beam and cosmic trigger setups). Any additional mixer for users will cost about 15 kCHF (not included in the present list). 4.1 IR analysis rack (needed to operate cosmic trigger gas system). 5.1 analysis rack (O2+H2O+ gas chromatograph). 6.1 closed loop gas system.

15. R. Guida CERN/PH-DT-DI15 Small recirculation systems Two small systems developed:  Prototype used at GIF (2003)  New simplified version for lab R&D (2012-2014) 26/6/2014

16. 11/07/2014Ernesto, Roberto PH-DT-DI gas service16 Gas systems – future upgrades Many possibilities for future upgrades to be discussed with users for resources: 1.Upgrade control rack for more units (mixers, analysis, re-circulation systems, … ) 2.Additional IR analysis rack for second mixer using flammable gas 3.3 mixers for users (15 kCHF each) 4.3 new gas recirculation systems for users 5.Install more distribution panels (?)
