PLS vacuum chamber

Description

The PLS vacuum chambers consist of 12 times of two sector chambers and one straight section. The chamber material is Al 5083-H321. Each chamber consists of a top and a bottom piece, which are machined separately and welded together. The pumping system to reduce the average operating pressure up to a nano Torr has three nine sets of lumped non-evaporable getter pumps (NEGs) in tandem with ion pumps installed beneath photon stops, and six ion pumps per superperiod. Helicoflex seals are used to connect all vacuum components onto the vacuum chamber. A prototype chamber will be machined by February 1992. (author)
