    The Right detector is under vacuum 'waiting to be cooltested'.
    (july 30, 2010)
    The right detector Hood is assembled with the Right CO2 evaporator and Module base. The assembly is placed in the cooling lab for preparing the CO2 tests. On each cooling pad heating block a temperature switch (Clickson) is mounted. The Clickson switches the cooling pad off at 110 degrees celcius. There are 5 heaters (56 Ohm each) serial connected.
