Compressor status AWAKE Technical Board meeting 19 May 2015

Technical Offers from Amplitude Technology February 2015 “Standard” vacuum chamber D=1500 mm April 2015: Space limitation of CERN installation taken into account, optical design was modified “Reduced size” vacuum chamber D=1300 mm ø 1500 Details in EDMS document

Content of the Amplitude compressor package  The vacuum vessel with external diameter of Ø1300 mm.  The support to hold the vacuum vessel (height to be defined).  The internal breadboard and the support to accommodate the mechanical mounts of the compressor.  The place for four windows (input beam, output beam, diagnostic beam, and leak).  The place for the vacuum pumps (two flanges) and two flanges for the detectors.  A test report of the vacuum compatibility of the vacuum chamber will be supplied following Amplitude Technologies quality process (inspection of the vacuum chamber with mass spectrometer for the detection of pollutant).  The installation on-site is included (two days). The optical compressor with the optical components (including the windows) and the mechanical mounts are not included. The vacuum pump, the detectors and the controllers are not included and will be integrated by the purchaser.

Vacuum in the laser compressor for the AWAKE project CERN Technical Specification

Vacuum requirements to be adjusted AMPLITUDECERN A leak rate of mbar l.s-1 is preferable. Outgassing of the laser compressor, that is defined here as the vacuum vessel itself and every component and mount installed in it, should not exceed mbar l s -1 There should not be any reason for a high leak rate. Seals: Amplitude Technologies’ standard vacuum chamber seals are made of FKM O-Rings The top seal of the vessel could be with O-ring, but the other flanges shall be with metallic seal.

Tentative schedule  Study in the research department to adapt the position of the window: four (4) weeks.  Manufacturing at the supplier’s site: seventeen (17) weeks, including summer holidays.  Test at Amplitude Technologies: two (2) weeks  Packing: one (1) week.  Installation on-site: one (1) week.  Compatible with 6 months delivery order if the order is placed soon. Time for transport is not considered. Order in June -- > Delivery in December
