Design of the consolidated LHC dipole diode busbar insulation system
During the second long shutdown of the LHC in 2019 and 2020, the electrical insulation of the 1232 dipole diodes and diode busbars is presently consolidated. The newly designed insulation system, mainly consisting of polyimide laminated fiber reinforced epoxy sheets and injection molded pure resin i...

| Sumario: | During the second long shutdown of the LHC in 2019 and 2020, the electrical insulation of the 1232 dipole diodes and diode busbars is presently consolidated. The newly designed insulation system, mainly consisting of polyimide laminated fiber reinforced epoxy sheets and injection molded pure resin inserts, can be installed in the very constricted space of the LHC tunnel, without removing the presently installed insulation. The consolidated insulation will prevent shorts to ground caused by metal debris in the LHC cold masses and allow preparing the LHC for operation at 7 TeV. |
