of JT-32 Committee on Electron Tube Safety
1.0
Committee organization and procedures Add under 3.0 an update on committee reaffirmation votes. Agenda was unanimously approved. 60446:7/01 Self-introductions were made, attendance taken, and it was determined that a quorum was present. The attendance roster and the CTA roster are in process of being updated to reflect the most current members present. All attendees verified the correctness of the information on the rosters. There were some committee membership changes: Techneglas member will change from Tom Watson to Larry Schmid. Action item The Committee was reminded of the Committee membership rule, which states that if a member misses two consecutive meetings, then at the third missed meeting, the member is moved from the membership list to the non-voting CTA list. The member will be re-instated at the next meeting attended. This rule comes from EIA EP-20-A, "Manual of Organization & Procedure," December 2000, Section 4.6.1.1 Meeting Quorum Pool (page 17-18), which states that: - A meeting quorum pool is defined as those members eligible to vote at a meeting: a) If a voting member is not represented at two consecutive meetings and the absence continues for the subsequent meetings, the member shall be removed from the Meeting Quorum Poll for the subsequent meetings. Upon attendance at a subsequent meeting the member shall be reinstated in the Meeting Quorum Poll and have full voting privileges at that meeting. 1.3 Approval of the Minutes Motion to approve JT-32 minutes from meeting No. 75 1/2001 in Scottsdale. Seconded. Motion carried to approve minutes as presented. 1.4 Correspondence No correspondence was received. 1.5 EDSC EDSC report: There
may be an EDSC meeting, if needed, at the 9/2001 Corning meetings. 2.0 International
Safety Standards IEC 61965 rev-1.0
was approved in 8/2000. IEC-61965, Ed 2 is currently being circulated
as a committee draft. It is a necessary update and more complete document
than rev-1.0. In order to expedite the approval of Ed 2 of IEC-61965,
rev-1.0 was withdrawn. This will allow a quicker review and passage
of Ed 2, which could then be on the TC-39 web site as early as Spring
2002. A copy of IEC-61965 Ed 2 should be sent to each JT-32 committee
member in time for the comment period ending about 6/30/2001. Action
Item 2.3 IEC/TC-39WG2 / X-Radiation Standard Task Force Report There is continuing discussion led by Mike Chenoweth regarding cabinet design and measurements. There are differences between the UL-1418 and IEC standards. The goal of the committee is to harmonize the UL and IEC X-Radiation standards. In Mike Chenoweth's absence, Bill Rowe gave a brief presentation on some of the issues involved in generalizing the EIA computational method to higher voltages using the more exact beamline mass absorption constants calculated by the XCOM program. A copy of Bill Rowe's presentation is attached to the minutes. Action Item A Task Group consisting of Bob Tolliver, Bill Rowe, and Mike Chenoweth will work on this issue prior to the 9/2001 JT-32 meeting in order to be prepared for the IEC/TC39/WG2 meeting in October. 3.0 Standards and document review Michael Tinkleman
reported that all four of JT-32's EIA-500 series of Recommended Practices
for Measurements have been reaffirmed. They are: - 4.0 Environmental issues None to discuss. 5.0 New Business No new business was offered. 6.0 Next Meeting The next meeting will be at the Radisson Hotel in Corning, New York on Tuesday September 12, 2001. The September 12th date was not available at the hotel.
