Abstract
The large-acceptance superconducting fragment separator (Super-FRS) poses unique challenges for its beam and insulation vacuum systems. These systems must operate in high radiation environments and accommodate dynamically changing experimental setups. Although the vacuum levels ranging from 10−5 to 10−7 mbar required by this single-pass machine are not particularly demanding, several factors make the design of the vacuum systems challenging. These include highly outgassing and self-sealing inserts, large volumes not typically encountered in accelerator beamlines, and a high level of prompt and residual radiation in the target and pre-separator area. In this article, an overview of the Super-FRS vacuum design is presented and handling of the standard and special vacuum components in the system is discussed.
