Panel vib levels Sine sweep White Noise Random vibration
× Panel vib set up W side on the top • Accelerometers: • Control: two mono-axial accelerometers positioned on two of the four L-shaped block TP1&TP2 • Fixture: three mono axial accelerometers placed on a corner on one of the four L-shaped block TP6 • Tray: one three-axial accelerometers in the middle of panel TP5 • Centrotecnica set up: • - 1 LDS shake table • 2 fixtures • 9 read out channels • 4 tested trays/day rate
Tray thermal levels On orbit temperature range -15°C 30°C
Tray thermal sequence The tray will be tested in its own service box.
Test schedule Vib test rate ≥ 4 panels/day (Centrotecnica-Milano) Thermal test lot ≥ 4 trays/cycle in 4 climatic chambers (2 ready by Pg in Terni, 1 foreseen in Pi, 1 foreseen in Ba) Test rate/climatic chamber ∼ 1 tower/month
Cosmic rays test Tray stacked in single view 2 stacks for a whole tower, readout with a single TEM
Conclusions • The thermal and vibe tests on trays are well understood • The vibe test rate in Centrotecnica is adequate • The thermal test rate with the Perugia equipment in Terni is just sufficient, but the test lines will be doubled • The mechanics to perform cosmic rays tests is under construction. The flux allows a test in realistic time. The mini-tower experience will be the ground base to define the cosmic rays test.
