[Dsg-rtpc] Questions about the gas systems

[William Crahen]

So this valve has a minimum crack pressure of 25 psig, which would be 
okay, it just means that all piping going from the gas shed to the mass 
flow controller must be per ASME B31.3, or perhaps B31.9 (We used 31.9 
for the hall D FDC, and Tim Whitlatch is on the pressure system 
committee, so I don't see a reason we can't use for the CO2/Helium 
stuff). I see what appears to be an orifice disc on the high pressure 
side of the supply regulator-do we have the cut sheet on that? that is 
typically the design limiter for un-controlled flow- you assume the 
regulator fails at full gas bottle pressure (3500 psi?) and calculate 
what flow can occur- that sizes your relief valve.
