  1. Tomasz Ladzinski GS/ASE LHC Access Safety SystemLS1 (DSO) Tests

  2. LASS Annual Maintenance & Tests General Principles • Each winter shutdown preventive maintenance of EIS takes place. • It is followed by an annual proof test of the correct acquisition/distribution of all I/O signals from/to EIS-access - normative requirement to detect latent errors • DSO Test is the final stage of the access safety system validation before the beam permit is signed. No more interventions in the LASS racks until the next shutdown. Organisational Constraints • In the LHC during winter shutdowns the DSO Test is the only moment when the full sensor-logic-actuator chain can be tested. • During the DSO Tests all EIS-beam/machine are tested, but only a representative sample of EIS-access is used. • On average around 15 intrusions are triggered in 1 day.

  3. Overview of major LS1 Modifications T.Ladzinski GS/ASE - edms: 1384648

  4. LS1 Testing Strategy • For the non-modified parts of the system, the general testing strategy is the same as for a standard winter shutdown. • New safety functions, new EIS etc. require systematic sensor-logic-actuator tests, as was the case in 2008. • Validating the modifications related to securing the Powering Phase II (major modification that needs to be operational in August 2014): • All software tested in the lab prior to deployment • Sensor-Logic chain tested on site (annual proof test) • 5 days allocated to the test of the safety functions Conducting this series of tests will made yet another round of EIS-a position signal acquisition tests.

  5. Access Powering Interlock Test • Objective In access mode verify that: • a sign of human presence as detected by EIS-access (patrol lost, door opened, restricted key taken); • opening of a pressure resistant door; sends a signal to the PIC controller. • Schedule • Friday 6 JuneLHC8-LHC1-TI8 (ECX4,TAG42)powering of sector 8-1 • Friday 13 June   LHC6-LHC7-LHC8            powering of sectors 6-7 & 7-8 • Friday 20 June LHC1/1.8-LHC2-TI2(SPS also)powering of sector 1-2 • Friday 4 July LHC2-LHC3-LHC4            powering of sectors 2-3 & 3-4 • Friday 25 JulyLHC4-LHC5-LHC6            powering of sectors 4-5 & 5-6 Partial DSO Tests Access only for GS/ASE to Tunnel and Service Zones Will be patrolled the evening before – restricted mode!

  6. Testing Remaining New Functionalities Local access constraints: • Functional Test of Collimation Region Doors in LHC7 (needs nominal ventilation) • Functional Test of new interlocked access zone PM32 • Functional Tests LHC4 Tunnel - Electron Stoppers ‘out-of-chain’ enhancements • Apply/remove new Radiation Vetoes in Injection and Beam Dump Tunnels LHC-wide access constraints (NO ACCESS / BEAM mode): • Intrusion in beam mode for all EIS-access that have been moved or introduced(UL14/16 AP; UX451 AP+ EoZ door; Ventilation doors in US32, US76, UP53; EoZ doors USC55, UJ561, TI2) • Maintenance Door Tests • Interlocked barrier at the maintenance door level PLC and Cabled Loop (including the staircase doors) • Check the functionality of the door Simulate access point maintenance in Beam mode • SPS Shutdown Key (additional constraint – SPS Chain 1 interlocked) • Connection/disconnection of LHC BIW – exhaustive tests of ‘interlock barrier degradation’ (access blocked & BIW sirens) • SPS Magnet Patrol signal acquisition by LASS • Latch of the cabled loop T.Ladzinski GS/ASE - edms: 1384648

  7. LASS Modification Cycle – Full V&V June-July, LHC Access Blocked 2-3/8 EIS-access put back in chain Weekend 4-5 Oct., LHC Access Blocked EIS-beam/machine in chain EIS-beam/machine in chain in September T.Ladzinski GS/ASE - edms: 1384648 Weekend 4-5 Oct, LHC Access Blocked LASS in nominal configuration Weekend 11-12 Oct, LHC Access Blocked LASS in nominal configuration

  8. Conclusions • Many access modifications during LS1 – implementation well on track. • Powering-Interlock Tests in June-July to: • validate the correct functioning of the access-powering interlock • validate the patrol and EIS-access position signals • DSO Test dates requested in March: • Weekend 4/5 October • Weekend 11/12 October - backup • Both dates should in principle be free in the schedule and after analysis of the validation needs the plan is to use them as follows: • Weekend 4/5 October – Beam Mode Tests by GS/ASE (exhaustive test for new equipment/functions) • Weekend 11/12 October – the DSO Test (sampling) T.Ladzinski GS/ASE - edms: 1384648
