SPD hardware Interlock to PSs

2 temperature interlock lines for each sector coming from the Routers (API PT1000 chain, OR for all HSs/sect.)

2 temperature interlock lines for each sector coming from 2nd PT1000 chain (OR for all HSs/sect.)

1 interlock line for each sector coming from the cooling plants (loop locked OR Error Alarms )


25

Activity Time table

First SPD DCS prototype: June – July Integration with Alice ECS - DAQ:

July – August Test of the full chain on 2nd half
