论文摘要
在Pierre Auger天文台升级的框架中，正在为在表面阵列的每个水 - 切伦科夫检测器中添加的1英寸光电倍增体的电源采用新的高压模块，目的是增加测量的动态范围。该模块位于电子设备附近的专用盒子中，包括托有铝制盒中的低消耗DC-DC转换器。所有模块都经过了特定的测试，可以在阿根廷潘帕的极端环境条件下验证其可靠性。在本文中，我们描述了验证程序和为此目标开发的设施。提出和讨论了HVPS模块测试的成功结果。
In the framework of the upgrade of the Pierre Auger Observatory, a new high voltage module is being employed for the power supply of the 1-inch photomultiplier added to each water-Cherenkov detector of the surface array with the aim of increasing the dynamic range of the measurements. This module is located in a dedicated box near the electronics and comprises a low consumption DC-DC converter hosted inside an aluminum box. All the modules have undergone specific tests to verify their reliability in the extreme environmental conditions of the Argentinian pampa. In this paper, we describe the validation procedure and the facility developed to this aim. The successful results of the tests on the HVPS modules are presented and discussed.
