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).

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.
