HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May LHC Resources & Tasks (per sector)

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May Shortcomings Infrastructure Ethernet connection very cumbersome: –individual modem VDSL + base WIFI => additional jumping onto equipment –Several teams working in adjacent cells Please provide WIFI as a standard infrastructure inside the tunnel during commissioning –Access to BOTH technical and NICE networks Controls Reliability of controls: –Communication Problems hamper operation –PVSS SCADA to be improved –Too many software versions Profibus: Schneider fieldbus configuration tool is far from user friendly Logistics MTF: –Non-conformities instrument retrieval interface for instrumentation required but non-existent –inner triplet data status? –Naming uniqueness MTF interface required for tunnel reporting IS MTF ADEQUATE FOR INSTRUMENTATION COMMISSIONING TASKS Database/Quality Assurance Support shall be very responsive: –Close to end-user –For AT-ACR depends on a temporary unit of personnel (fellow) Automated Test Equipment development: –delayed continuously by on-site (SMI2, AL premises, etc) instrumentation support.

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May Shortcomings: MTF data retrieval This quad does have: 1.Cold-mass thermometer 2.Electrical Heater 3.… How do I know that NC No 90 refers to an electrical Heater?

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May Shortcomings: MTF data retrieval

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May Naming Conventions: How it works Physical Equipment Serial number MTF Slot name + Tag name Serial number LHC Reference DB Slot name Serial number The slot name + tag name used by the Controls/Operation must coincide with the slot name + tag name registered in LHC Reference DB and in MTF. Project engineer Tag name Controls/ Operation Slot name + Tag name

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May All machine components MUST be registered in MTF All instrumentation MUST be assigned to machine assemblies in MTF Naming Conventions: How is it used? (1) The tag name (e.g. TT821) MUST be included when the instrumentation is assigned to a machine assembly in MTF

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May The slot names MUST be identical MQ.28Li MQ.29Li QRLAA.30Li MQ.27Li QRLAB.28Li MBC...MBA.29LiMBC...MBA.28Li MQ.28Li MQ.29Li QRLAA.29Li MQ.27Li QRLAB.27Li MBC...MBA.29LiMBC...MBA.28Li AT/ACR name (used by Controls/Operation) Official name (used by MTF) Naming Conventions: How is it used? (2)

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May D4.6R7 Q5R7 QRLIA.2R7 Q6R7 QRLEA.6R7 D3.6R7 … …… DFBM.6R7 D4.6R7 Q5R7 QRLIA.6R7 Q6R7 QRLEA.6R7 D3.6R7 … …… DFBM.6R7 Naming Conventions: How is it used? (3) The slot names MUST be identical AT/ACR name (used by Controls/Operation) Official name (used by MTF)

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May Naming Conventions: Summary QRLAA.30L8QRLAA.29L8 What??? QRLAA.29L8 is not on MTF!!!

HWCR, AT-ACR-IN, 12 May Major Shortcomings Missing Manpower Cryogenic commissioning consist of a set of specialized tasks: –Will there be a good match between professional qualifications & tasks? –Is training required? If YES: additional resources shall be already at CERN 3-6 month seem the strict minimum LHC schedule show activities in up to 3 sectors at the same time –1 team (warm commissioning) would then be missing ACR-IN tasks planning does not foresee support for external teams –Additional manpower autonomous from day 1; otherwise work can be significantly delayed Is it possible to consolidate critical know-how/ressources: Database/Quality Assurance support relies on temporary personnel Additional process control engineers is required Various No contingency allocation!
