Version 6.12 is current version of document summarizing status of Rack planing (released on 12.04.2012).

This overview serves as intermediate step to the KDS (Kabel Dokumentation System) and allows us to perform rack administration until KDS will be fully implemented within the frame of XFEL

XTL Tunnel Racks Specifications are summarised in the following document

Schroff: cooling issue

Two electronics rack prototypes were ordered. One of them from Schroff. Different aspects of electronics cooling were discussed during the meeting with representatives of firma Schroff. The presentation devoted to the cooling issue can be found here

Radiation Shielding for Electronic Devices Operating in XFEL Environment

Presentation given at XFEL Project Meeting", 21 October 2009

Summary of FLASH/XFEL scaling factor discussion (26.06.2009)

Consolidating the scaling factor between the radiation levels measured at FLASH and those assumed for XFEL is highly important for the shielding layout. Therefore 3 basic statements were considered during discussion...
