BaBar Drift Chamber
gas System
Shifter Panel
(updated Nov 2004)
The
Shifter panel
Concentration of C4H10
(Isobutane):
2 numbers are given :
the raw value on the display of
the analyser and
the value corrected for the variations
of atmospheric pressure
that affects the measure of the
apparatus (this last number indicate the actual
C4H10 concentration and is relevant
for the shifters).
Concentration of Oxygen
Concentration of Water
Current sampling point:
It corresponds to different point on the gas
system to analyse the gas. Possible locations are: input/output point
of the DCH, circulation loop, fresh gas, He and C4H10 input points.
In normal running
mode the quality of the mixture at the output point of the
DCH
can trigger
an alarm of the system (this point is the one that is analysed most of
the time).
Atmospheric Pressure value, and
the relative DCH overpressure
(~ 4 mbars)
Access to HAD and humidity panels:
These panels display the
readout of the
2 HADs sensors that analyse
the content of C4H10 present in the forward and backward bulhead
of the DCH. There is also a panel that allows to check
the relative humidity in the bulkheads.
Check the status of the restart of the gas system:
See here for more details on this point.
