Diamond Light Source Booster Girder Assemblies, Oxford, United Kingdom

Project start 2004. Project completion 2005.

The Diamond facility is one of the largest scientific research facilities built in the UK. It will produce ultra-violet and X-ray beams of exceptional brightness, allowing pioneering experiments to be carried out which probe deep into the basic structure of matter and materials. The facility will comprise a 3 GeV electron storage ring, injected from a 100 MeV linac through a full energy booster synchrotron, and an initial complement of seven beamlines.

Danfysik is an important supplier to Diamond with a delivery of 44 ready-to-install booster girders assemblies containing different combinations of laminated dipole, quadrupole, sextupole and corrector magnets. The magnets and vacuum components are mounted and accurately aligned on the girders, complete with all service and interlock connections to suitable manifolds and electrical termination boards ready for installation. Danfysik carried out full mechanical, electrical and magnetic testing of the individual magnetic elements, vacuum tests to ensure UHV compatibility, as well as other tests of the complete assemblies.

The assemblies also include the UHV vacuum vessel running through the magnet gaps, including Beam Position Monitors (BPM), bellows, flanges and all necessary vacuum pumps and instrumentation.
