9. Infrastructure<br />

Two identical detector frames are foreseen for <strong>NeuLAND</strong>, allowing to split the detector<br />

for experimental reasons or for maintance purposes, see section 5.3 for details. Both<br />

detector frams shall be located in the experimental hall (Cave C and later R 3 B hall).<br />

Within the experimental hall the full-equipped detector is moved using air cushions. A<br />

certain planarity of the floor is thus demanded within the hall.<br />

The weight of one double-plane of <strong>NeuLAND</strong> amounts to about 1 ton. The doubleplanes<br />

can be moved from one to the other frames utilizing the guide rails. In case, they<br />

have to be taken out completely from the frame, this easily can be performed using the<br />

crane installed in the experimental hall, which is laid out to carry up to 10 tons.<br />

The power consumption, and thus the heat dissipation, for full <strong>NeuLAND</strong> amounts<br />

to about 40 kW. This takes into account 4 W per photomultiplier and about 1.5 W<br />

per Tacquila read-out channel. In addition about two racks of ancillary electronics are<br />

required and taken into account. Air cooling will be used.<br />
