Description

The instrumentation and control system for the EBT-POP plasma heating systems consists of a three tiered structure. Tier one is a limited scope, high speed, hard-wired personnel and equipment safety system. Tier two is a distributed control system based upon and industrial process controller. It is used for general operational control of the plasma heating system. Tier three is a CAMAC based system utilized purely for the acquisition of data which is useful, but not necessary to the operation of the device
