Hi Marc, 
Do you have news about RICH OSP? 
thanks, 
Valery

>>> I have a few questions;

>>> There are 2 pressure systems, air and nitrogen.

>>> Are there associated JLAB pressure system numbers assigned to these systems?

>>> Who is the JLAB DA (Design Authority) for each of these systems?

>> Saptarshi Mandal worked on the ASME documentation for the RICH. He may be able
>> to answer both of the first two questions.

>>> Are there associated personnel hazards with these systems? (nothing indicated on
>>> the THA form).

>> Tyler Lemon is the DSG point of contact for the RICH interlocks, he can assist

>> the RICH gas controls interface chassis.

>> This is a chassis which is being assembled by the DSG, it contains two power
>> supplies (24VDC and +/- 15V) which are used to provide power for the mass flow

>> enclosed to eliminate any electrical shock hazards.

>>> Are there hazards associated with entering the enclosure with the air cooling
>>> system on?

>> You may want to ask Bob Miller this question.

>>> Is there an ODH hazard in the hall due to the nitrogen system?

>> Although the nitrogen in the system is a relatively small amount, Bob Miller

>>> Are there detailed procedures for operating the nitrogen and air systems?

>> engineer specified relief valves in the design and there are no welds.
>> Saptarshi can probably give you more specifics, if you need them.

>>> There are several "TBD"s for threshold values. Have these been determined?

>> The system is in early development. The tank regulator settings have not been
>> determined yet as they are directly related to the desired temperature of the
