6. LHC – sector readiness for consolidation Sector readiness: – Released: 45, 56, 67, 78, 81, 12, 23 – To be released: 34  waiting for QRL leak test – S12 short circuits – investigation completed Diode – solved Lyra – repair to be done Leak test of cryomagnets lines – 20 internal helium leaks identified in arc subsectors after warm-up 14 identified to component.  for 6 leaks not identified to component, further tests to be performed in ɸ2. – Triplet 5L – helium leak in FF (inside DFBX) stable since 2009 – propose ‘use-as-is’.
