Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of irradiation, in particular to a compressed air system for a wafer proton irradiation device. Background Art
[0002] The beam transmission and distribution system needs to distribute the beam to each irradiation room according to the control instructions of the master control system. For example, when the devices to be irradiated in the first vacuum irradiation room are ready, the operator of the first irradiation room sends an application for beam distribution to the master control system. The master control room integrates the working status of the accelerator and the working status of the other irradiation rooms, and distributes the beam to the first irradiation room based on the authorization of the dose monitoring and interlocking system.
[0003] After the first irradiation room receives the beam, it checks the beam parameters, starts the background irradiation operation control program, and performs irradiation production operations. During the irradiation production operation, the overall control system locks the beam supply room, and other rooms cannot receive the beam, thereby releasing the interlocking system of other rooms, and other irradiation rooms can carry out work such as replacement of irradiated items.
[0004] During the operation of the irradiation device, the pneumatic gate valve of the vacuum system of the irradiation device and the Faraday cup of the beam measurement system require compressed air as a working requirement;
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a compressed air system to provide pure, dry, oil-free and impurity-free compressed air with stable and pulse-free output for the pneumatic gate valve and the Faraday cup of the beam measurement system, thereby meeting their working requirements.
