Abstract

Integration of the General Dynamics specified CDM cold test stand, including 10k ampere DC power supplies, high and low speed data acquisition systems, cryogenic facility, cryogenic distribution and end cans, coil protection system, vacuum leak test equipment and test stand controller is discussed. This paper addresses the lessons learned from the integration of these various equipment items. A description of systems is presented. Definition of the hardware and software systems and the interface to the CDM is included
