The design and development of the sensor excitation and read back chassis was driven by the requirements for the monitoring and control of two conduction-cooled superconducting magnets in Hall B for the 12 GeV accelerator upgrade. The torus and solenoid superconducting magnets require extensive instrumentation. Sensor selection was accomplished by applying Jefferson Lab’s (JLab) risk mitigation process, which employed a failure modes and effects analysis approach. The goal was to accommodate all sensor types for monitoring and control and to develop a generic multisensor excitation low voltage chassis that would be used across both magnet systems with a reduced set of functions. As a result, the chassis has been deployed in experimental Hall B at JLab and has been performing successfully since July 2016.
