Test setup

Nomenclature of the modules (could be changed)

In order to identify the different modules, the following structure is used:

X-YY-Z

with:

  • X = O (outer) or M (middle)
  • YY= 01, 02, 03, 04 ...
  • Z (only Middle modules) = A, B, C, D

HV control

  • Testing HV supply

Light Leaks sealing

The modules were sealed from light leaks with the use of black tape. To check the sealing, the output of the PMT was measured with an micro-amperimeter, before and after the cover with tape. In top of the pipe, where the PMT is allocated, a gum stopper with slits for the cables, are placed. After many checks it was found that:

  • the main light leak come for the joint of the module with the PMT allocation pipe. (Covering it, reduce the current drain from PMT aproximatly in 1-2 orders of magnitude)
  • covering the cap of the pipe, doesn't show significant improve.
  • covering with tape the side corners of the module, the joint of the top and bottom plastic caps and the union of the pipe with the module reduce the current drain from PMT in 4-5 orders of magnitude.

Outer Modules

For the outer modules, the same PMT was used, with a voltage of 1000 V (max 1900 V) to avoid damage to the PMT.

Module Current before Current after
O-01 15.2 μA 0.3-0.2 nA
O-02 10.9 μA 0.3-0.1 nA
O-03 48.5 μA 0.7-0.5 nA
O-04 N/A 2-1.7 nA
O-05 34.4 μA 2-1.4 nA

Middle Modules

For the middle modules, the same PMT was used, with a voltage of 1000 V (max 1900 V) to avoid damage to the PMT.

Module Current before Current after
M-01-A 10.9 μA ~0.5 nA
M-01-B 24.2 μA ~0.2 nA
M-01-C 20.9 μA ~0.2 nA
M-01-D 7.5 μA ~0.2 nA
M-02-A 38.5 μA ~0.7 nA
M-02-B 13.1 μA ~0.4 nA
M-02-C 30.5 μA ~0.3 nA
M-02-D 10.7 μA ~0.2 nA
M-03-A 23.9 μA ~0.7 nA
M-03-B 6.45 μA ~0.6 nA
M-03-C 3.8 μA ~0.3 nA
M-03-D 19.2 μA ~0.3 nA
M-04-A 13.2 μA ~0.7 nA
M-04-B 6.69 μA ~0.5 nA
M-04-C 5.3 μA ~0.5 nA
M-03-D 7.8 μA ~0.45 nA
