Machine Protection TTF Martin Staack DESY MVP TTF2 Review Meeting at Salzau, January 2003
Martin Staack, DESY MVP22. January What is the purpose? The Machine Protection System... switches off the beam in case of subsystem failure protects the accelerator from damage minimizes activation by beam losses manages beam permissions displays information about machine status collects information about subsystem failures
Martin Staack, DESY MVP22. January Main Components of the MPS Collimators passive machine protection PLC „Beam Interlock System“ (BIS) processing slow Interlock signals (ms)processing slow Interlock signals (ms) manage Operation Modes and Beam Modesmanage Operation Modes and Beam Modes processes status information for the control systemprocesses status information for the control system Beam Interlock Concentrator (BIC) processing fast Interlock signals (2-3 µs)processing fast Interlock signals (2-3 µs) Photomultipliers, Toroid system fast Beam Loss detection
Martin Staack, DESY MVP22. January TTF Operation Modes...are determined by Machine settings
Martin Staack, DESY MVP22. January TTF Beam Modes Beam TTF... Long Pulse Train (800µs) Short Pulses (10 bunches) Single Bunch No beam...are determined by Operation Mode Collimator and Screen positions Beam losses Operator wishes
