The Central Drift Chamber
The Central Drift Chamber (CDC) is a straw tube chamber. It has 28 layers(rings) of straws each 150cm long. It is operated with an Argon CO2 gas mixture of 50% each by mol. The nominal high voltage (HV) is +2110V and the pre-amplifier cards require low voltage (LV) drawing 0.47A of current. The gas supply is monitored and controlled by the Gas System GUI while the HV and LV are monitored and controlled by the HV GUI.
