The Vertical Test Area at Jefferson Lab, consisting of eight vertical dewars, recently received a major upgrade by replacing the original (1995) cryogenic control system. A new, state-of-the-art, distributed control system (DC S) based on Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) was installed and commissioned. The new system increases facility throughput, reliability and cryogenic efficiency, while improving safety. The system employs a touchscreen graphical user interface and a highly redundant architecture on an Ethernet backbone.
