The Design, fabrication, operation and maintenance of D0 prototype 1/2-HP 170-SCFH gas recirculating filtration blending system
Abstract
Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) D{null} collider, E-740, uses 150 proportional drift tube (P.D.T.) modules connected to a common multiple header to supply clean low pressure gas. A second multiple header returns the gas to the mixing area and exhausts it to the atmosphere. To test and debug the major construction problems associated with a large and long term experiment, a small cosmic ray test stand was constructed in the Wilson Hall ground floor Physics area. The first four P.D.T.'s that were constructed at FNAL's lab 5 Assembly area were installed in an 110 ton cosmic ray test stand. Two P.D.T.'s were installed above the double 50 ton magnet toroids and two were installed below. A prototype gas system was fabricated for the purpose of conducting development of a recirculating, filtering, and blending system for gas components as called upon by daily requirements set by the current needs of a collider experiment.
