Operation Instructions

E-mail from Magne Lautitzen to atlas-itk-pixel-modules-TestSystem (Oct/26/2020): 

To operate the cooling unit, you will need the following infrastructure:

• Vacuum source
• Dry air or nitrogen source
• Circulating chiller
• Peltier power supply and/or controller

The amount of dry air or nitrogen needed to maintain a dry atmosphere in the cooling unit will depend on the humidity in your lab and the lowest temperature you want to reach on the module. A ballpark figure is 1.5L/min at -25C.

The circulating chiller must have a cooling capacity that depends on how cold you need to take the modules. See page 13 on this presentation for recommendations for reaching -55C.

For stable temperature control of the modules, you will need a peltier controller. I  have been successfully using the Meerstetter 1089.

To avoid condensation on the peltier devices, you must maintain a dry atmosphere in the cooling unit whenever there is coolant flowing through the coldplate. If condensation forms on the peltier devices, it will degrade the performance of the cooling unit because ice and water is an excellent conductor of heat. Getting rid of this condensation requires a long term “bakeout” of the coldstack and is best avoided.

Interlock 

• Cooling unit interlock:
  conditions and action:

  • module too cold: T (module) < -45 C and T(coldplate) > -45 C : turn off peltier and turn off module + chiller

  • module too hot: T (module)> 35 C : turn off module and peltier (?) + chiller

  • condensation:

  1. T (module) < dew points: turn off peltier and turn off module + chiller

  2. flow of dry air < 1.5 L/min (? number need to be tested): check dry air connection

  • vacuum status: alarm

  1. pressure gauge (threshold) : check vacuum status or piping

  2. T(module)-T(vacuum chuck)>threshold (need to test if the module and vacuum chuck not connect well what is the number) : check vacuum status or piping

  • peltier properly setup: 

    1. T(vacuum chuck) > T(chiller): turn off module and peltier

  • chiller status: alarm

    1. (need to consider about leakage of coolant or some problem related to chiller) T (coldplate) -T(chiller set) > threshold (need to check) => need to shut down pelter + module + chiller 

Chiller

There are two ThermoCube units in B84/TID cabinet. Unit #1 is with full tubing setup and regularly used by Gabriel Blaj for LCLS so that we are trying to use unit #2 (no tubing) by assembling similar tubing arrangement as unit #1. Unit #2 has different coolant connectors compared to unit #1, but the rest of the tubing can work the same way still.

Tubing

• A) Application section (2*140cm):  Our application tubing came with the CERN shipment is a Saint Gobain Tygon S3 E3603 NSF-51 with 8mm ID/11.5mm OD that fit well onto the cooling block barb (ridge ID/OD=0.306"/0.363"=7.8/9.2mm). To avoid adapting metric-Imperial tubing, we also tried a 1/4" soft tubing and that seemed to just about being able to get on the cooling block barb with very tight fit. Since we may never dissemble the cooling block after initial assembly, we opted to go with the 1/4" ID and 3/8" OD tubing so that the two ends can fit onto the Swagelok Instrumentation quick connect QC6-316 (SS-QC6-D-600 / SS-QC6-B-600) with 3/8" fitting. Aiming for the same soft PVC Tygon chemical tubing as the original CERN part with ID/OD=1/4"/3/8" corresponds to McMaster-Carr #5155T26. Do we need a shut off valve near module to allow faster warmup ? 
• B) Application joint to chiller Process In (30+15cm):  Application joint is  QC6-316  ( SS-QC6-D-600 / SS-QC6-B-600 ) as for A)  with 3/8" OD tube ( McMaster-Carr #5155T26) for ~30cm then transition (with McMaster-Carr #91355K32) to a short (~15cm) 3/8" ID tube (McMaster-Carr #5155T34) to fit onto the 3/8"  hose barb from the HFC 12 series  (rating only down to 0C ?) which can connect with the 3/8" CPC at chiller Process In. 
• C) Application joint to filter (or Process Out) (30+15cm):  similar piece like B), such that the hose barb end can plug directly into the chiller Process Out, or filter out. 
• D) Filter: The nominal filter appeared in ThermoCube's manual is with the  Pentair/Pentek polypropylene housing (Grainger #1ECR5) which has 3/8 NPT female interface. Other auxiliary components also can be found at Grainger: Mounting bracket, wrench. ThermoCube recommended filter cartridges are the 5 micron particle filter which can be Pentair/Pentek filter cartridge (Grainger #3FRU1).  Also needs caution whether filter is compatible with <0C coolant. The filter output end should be fitted with the 3/8" NPT shutoff  as those on the chiller unit. The short section from filter inlet to chiller Process out doesn't need disconnecting at the filter housing after the initial installation so can just take a fixed 3/8" MNPT to 3/8" barb fitting to transition to 1/2" tube over the 3/8"  hose barb to connect to the chiller Process Out. 
• E) Jacket insulation: We need to  insulate all  sections of tubing with foam jacket to allow running coolant <~0C. It may be simplest to use a long continuous slitted piece runs over everything. A 7/8" ID and 1/2" thickness slitted tube is envisaged and the ID is mainly constrained bu the hose clamp profile.

Coolant

 We intend to use the ThermoCube recommended coolant Koolance 702 (27% propylene glyco + water mix):  https://koolance.com/liq-702-liquid-coolant-bottle-high-performance-700ml-blue.  Propylene glyco is a nicer substance (used as food additive in some cases) than the more commonly used ethylene glyco as an alternative antifreeze. 

The ThermoCube tank is 300 ml but there may be some additional piping volume within chiller besides the 300ml. The tubing outside the chiller (not including filter) is <~200ml. So it may sufficiently safe if we get two 700ml bottles of the recommended Koolance 702. This unit description doesn’t say what type of cold plate it has. Stainless would have carried a tag ’S” in the model number somewhere so this may be old style anodized AL PCW plate ? Koolance claims to be friendly with both Al and SS.

Vacuum Pump 

The vacuum chuck has 3mm diameter hole for the vacuum line tube (OD/ID=3mm/1.8mm). The vacuum pump at B84 EPP lab is a GAST DOA-P704-AA with max pressure of 4 bar (60 psi). The left port (looking from front) has a 3/8" barb that we intend to connect a braided firm polyurethane rubber tube (McMaster-Carr #51165K12) with ID:OD=3/8":5/8" which runs ~1.5m from below the table to the top of table. This pump vacuum tube then transitions to the short (~30cm) 3mm OD vacuum chuck tube with a shut off valve and vacuum gauge in the transition region so that vacuum on the cooling unit can be held with monitoring after pumping.  Since the vacuum gauge connection are mostly SS, we also opt for SS parts: Push on hose fitting (McMaster-Carr #53515K31) with 3/8" barb for pump tube transition to 1/4" NPT followed by On/off valve (McMaster-Carr #45395K216) and 1/4" Tee (McMaster-Carr #4452K432) for vacuum gauge mount. The Tee port is compatible with the Omega OEM pressure transmitter PX119-015AI, with SS 1/4" NPT mount and a 0-15psi absolute pressure measurement range. This device with miniDIN 43650C connection can be read out by the WidgetLords Pi-SPi-8AI Raspberry Pi Analog Input Interface (the originally favored Sequent Industrial Automation Raspberry Pi interface card was sold out). The final connection to the vacuum chuck tube could use a nylon part with 1/16" barb and 1/4" NPT (McMaster-Carr #5153K37). Unfortunately here is no SS bodied corresponding part. The 1/16" (1.59mm) barb is a approx match to the vacuum chuck tube with ~1.8mm ID (adequate tightness to be verified).

Results

1. Check the Temperature distribution on the Peltier, temperature distribution is not flat on the cold side of Peltier while running the Peltier
2. foam box can help isolate the Peltier system and increase the temperature difference between hot side and cold side
3. running load will increase the temperature on the cold side

Testing results

Temperature Agreements:

Tests where done to see if the NTC and RTD temperature data was consistent at or near operating temperatures. As can be seen there is a drift where the RTD reads 2 ℃ lower then the NTC. However at room temperature this difference is reversed and reads about 1 ℃ higher. 

Room temperature, no load on module	In fridge, no load on module	In freezer, no load on module.

The NTC on the modules are type NTCG103JF103FTDS. More information about these modules can be found at https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/Atlas/ItkPixModuleTesting#Reading_out_the_NTC_Module.

However the data sheet and the twiki about the sensors do not agree about the relationship between the resistivity and temperature. The differences is plotted below. Note Δt is the Data Sheet value minus the twiki results. In all our code the temperature is calculated via the data sheet values. 

With B = 3380, R₀ = 10,000 Ohms and T₀ = 25℃
