LBT Q4 2007 Engineering Review ETP Elevation Track Protection (oil contamination remediation)
Highlights (Q4/2007) • Wipers installed on Left-rear El Pad • Full sheet metal enclosure tested LBT Q4 2007 Engineering Review
Open Issues • Technical • Vacuum system on hold to see if wipers are practical • Spring clip still needs to be finessed in all installations • Lateral Capillaries need characterization and length adjustment • Inboard laterals/gear clearance did not conform to model so wipers lift and leak at gear radius • Schedule • None • Financial • None, cost of wipers is low • Resource • Mountain support pacing operation LBT Q4 2007 Engineering Review
Progress (Q4/2007) • Wipers installed on Left-rear El Pad • Sheet metal full enclosure tested LBT Q4 2007 Engineering Review
Planning (Q1/2008) • Characterize and prove system during 1st qtr. • Identify and correct problems, measure oil extraction rate. LBT Q4 2007 Engineering Review
