[Dsg-rich] MVT exhaust fan in EEL 124

Hi George, 
Thank you for looking to all these issues. I agree that we have to determine the exact location of these fans in the Hall-B and determine the change in the length of the exhaust tubes. 

And sure we will test the exhaust line pressure when the fans will be on and off. 

In any case the cRio interlock will monitor the temperature inside the electronic panel and will shut down the detecter in case of accident with exhaust fans. 

Thank you again, 
Valery
