Purpose

In the context of the Joint COntrol Project (JCOP), the LHC experiments Gas Control Systems (LHC GCS) aims at providing the four LHC experiments with a unique control system (supervision and process control layers) for their 23 gas systems. The PH-DT1-GS section has been set up to investigate the feasibility of developing common gas systems for the many sub-detectors that compose the LHC experiments. The PH-DT1-GS has mandated the IT-CO group to design and to develop the corresponding control systems.
Information has been made available for outsiders (See the "Publications" web page).

Overview [pdf]

Status of the production of the 23 gas control systems.

In parallel with the LHC GCS projects, several projects have been launched to provide test beams or experiments with small gas systems. These projects have been used to capture requirements and study technologies that could be potentially applicable to the LHC GCS.
