DCS OVERVIEW

DCS COMPONENTS

Since spring 2012

HV EHS 8220n-F (8 channels, 2 kV, 4mA) EHS 8205n-F (8 channels, 500V, 10 mA)

Monitoring 12 NTC for temperature measurement 2 Honeywell humidity sensors 1 four wire measurement e.g.

Precise measurement of resistors PT100 etc.

DCS PC Windows XP PVSS 3.8

DCS CONTROL PANEL

TO DO LIST

Operating system must be upgraded! Windows XP not supported anymore

Migration from PVSS 3.8 to WinCC 3.11 recommended.

Request by users: Change the reaction to over currents

currently channels are switched off ‘current source’ behaviour possible (max current is kept, voltage is reduced) possible by changing the iseg settings

Improve manual e.g. restart of archiving

DERIVATIVES FOR OTHER APPLICATIONS ATLAS IBL DCS uses

Iseg EHS HV modules DCS monitoring crate

Quality Assurance of cooling pipes Pressure transmitter Flow transmitter Active and passive current loops (4-20 mA) Based on DCS monitoring crate

ATLAS testbeam setup@SLAC Copy of AIDA DCS + LV modules integrated into DCS as well MPOD modules (8 channels, 0..8V, 5A, sense wires) requires a different crate: MPOD Mini Crate

Crate houses HV and LV modules spring 2014
