Thermal Sensor Locations (Spectrometer and Hallway)

Introduction

Owing to the thermal sensitivity of KPF, we have placed 36 high-precision LakeShore temperature sensors throughout the spectrometer to monitor temperature changes throughout the instrument. Diagrams and tables below indicated the placement of these sensors, as well as their connections to the associated LakeShore 224-12 temperature monitors.

Also included below is the list of our lower-precision LinkHub-E sensors, which are used to monitor less-critical temperatures such as within the electronics racks and around the Calibration Bench.

LakeShore Sensor Locations

Sensor locations and KTL keywords are shown below.

The reader is directed to https://keckobservatory.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/KPFElectronics/pages/1511915776 for details on the Lakeshore 224-12 monitors and cable harnesses details.

The connectors on the various Lakeshore cable harnesses are labelled 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12.

This diagram indicates how they connect to the Lakeshore rear panel:
