  1. DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status A. Tauro

  2. Outline • Status of integration of DCal services • DCal cabling and patch panels • DCal cooling pipes • Modification of access inside L3 • Modification of ventilation inside L3 DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  3. Integration of DCal inside ALICE Several integration items: • Services • Cabling, cooling, … (incl. cooling plant modification) • Infrastructure • L3 ventilation • Access • Access to L3 (including emergency evacuation) • Access to PHOS and TOF electronics • Integration with PHOS • Modification of PHOS services • Installation of PHOS modules • Installation • New rails • How to install DCal without disrupting ALICE? • Integration with future detectors • VHMPID, PHOS#1, CPV DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  4. DCal cabling and patch panels • LV and sense cables routed from the cradle up to rack A-13 • HV cables routed up to CR4 • All patch panels (LV1-LV2,…) installed on cradle • Because of the new cradle we had to re-design the routing of the PHOS cables and cooling services DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  5. LV cabling up to rack A-13 DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  6. DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  7. DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  8. DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  9. DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  10. Cable length and section DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  11. Cooling Water plant: EMCal plant must be modified with addition DCal loop DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  12. Access • Complete re-design A-side ladder • Modification existing services (TOF-TRD cooling pipes) needed • Displacement of C-side ladder • Leave free passage below cradle (I-side) • Rescue injured people • PHOS access • Access below PHOS modules (electronics) preserved DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  13. Access A-side ladder C-side ladder A-side ladder Safety passage DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  14. L3 ventilation • Impossible to leave existing air manifold • Is in the way of the new cradle • Different alternatives studied • Access to C-side compromised • Final solution: DCal rails used as air manifold • Set of 10cm holes along central axis of rails DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  15. Top view (2nd beam symmetrical) 10.2m 1m 1m L3 ventilation CFD study to predict air speed and flow distribution DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  16. Distance DCal-PHOS • DCal-PHOS = 170mm, fixed to accommodate PHOS cooling services DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  17. To be studied • Seismic simulation on complete structure • Procedure to extract and reinstall rails • Drawings rotator and insertion rails DCal-ALICE integration and installation plan and status

  18. Timeline • Installation target: 2012 • We need to have all structures (cradle, rails) at CERN ~6months before shutdown, e.g. summer 2011 • Checks at P2 before installation: • Full assembly of rails + cradles in surface • Services installation on cradle, pp fixation,...
