National Centre for Nuclear Research, Poland Cluster-Jet Target Slow Control System Concept Arkadiusz Chlopik 3 June 8, 2016, GSI

National Centre for Nuclear Research, Poland Cluster-Jet Target Slow Control System Concept cont. Two separate PLCs – Main PLC – Transfer Point PLC Main PLC’s functions: – collect data from target sensors and devices – perform measuring loop – send data received from sensors to Transfer Point PLC via Profibus – control the target devices with commands received from Transfer Point PLC Transfer Point PLC’s functions: – receive data from the Main PLC and send them to the CompactRIO – receive data or commands from the CompactRIO and send them to the Main PLC – perform measuring loops Arkadiusz Chlopik 4 June 8, 2016, GSI

National Centre for Nuclear Research, Poland Cluster-Jet Target Slow Control System Concept cont. CompactRIO’s functions: – receive data from the Transfer Point PLC and send them to a PANDA DCS supervisory computer – perform measuring loops and send the resulting data to the Transfer Point PLC and DCS – receive commands from DCS and translate them to the proper actions of the Slow Control devices Arkadiusz Chlopik 5 June 8, 2016, GSI

National Centre for Nuclear Research, Poland Cluster-Jet Target Slow Control System design requirements Use of standard industrial solutions as much as possible Based on National Instruments products (TDR recommendation): – hardware: CompactRIO – software: LabVIEW RS-485 chosen as a common control bus for transferring commands/data to/from devices – in the case of devices with RS-232 interface only it is necessary to use RS232-RS485 converters – use of a cRIO module with four RS-485 ports to distinguish between different data transfer rates Direct monitoring and control using Digital Input and Digital Output C- modules Arkadiusz Chlopik 9 June 8, 2016, GSI

National Centre for Nuclear Research, Poland Cluster-Jet Target Slow Control System design requirements cont. Use of finite state machines The programs have to be scalable Must have the ability to exchange data with PANDA supervisory system Arkadiusz Chlopik 10 June 8, 2016, GSI

National Centre for Nuclear Research, Poland Laval nozzle temperature and pressure control and gas-flow measurement Two-stage („warm” and „cold”) cold-head COOLPOWER 10MD in conjunction with the helium compressor COOLPAK 6000MD produces working temperatures in the range 20-30 K The motor speed of COOLPAK is controlled with CompactRIO via an RS232-RS485 converter The nozzle temperature is controlled with a pair of calibrated Si-diode sensors and the LakeShore 336 PID temperature controller The hydrogen pressure at the nozzle input is controlled with precision pressure sensor SLA5810A (1-30 bar) and the pressure metering and PID control program running in channel #2 of the Brooks 0254 instrument; the Brooks 5860S and the program running in channel #1 of Brooks 0254 monitors the hydrogen mass flow Arkadiusz Chlopik 13 June 8, 2016, GSI
