| − | - | + | - Chris: Jim and Chuck made the drawings of the grounding clip. It will be Cu-Be 13mill thick and will have a force of 7.5lb (Bill: in this case we have to use Rohacell between the wire frame and the cathode. One company only responded to the bid: $2k for 500 clips (need ~120 per package). Chris submitted a PR. |
| + | |||
| + | - After some discussions we figured out that we can easily extend the grounding to the cathode from the top cell. We just extend the Cu foil to that cathode and put the clips that we have now on the top of the copper foil, thus we will also prevent damaging the cathode foil. In this case we may not need to do the inter-cell ground connections. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Before making the clips we have to test them but the company will not give us samples, for that they need to set up the production. Bill suggested to use the 7mill brass shimming plates (that we have) and try to make a clip according to the drawings that Chris will send. At least we can test it before the production starts. | ||
