 Description   

After reaching the maximum allowed cryocooler power, it will be necessary to regenerate the cryostat.
To do so, we have designed a turbo-pump-based regeneration procedure.
The sequence is based on automatic or remote controlled operations including :

  • starting/stopping roughing, turbo and ion pumps
  • opening/closing the gatevalve.
  • stop/starting cryocooler

To speed up the process, the heater on the detector and spreader are used.

From a software pov, the main thread can be viewed as a sequence with:

  • Steps with associated actions;
  • Transitions with associated logic conditions

But there will be also other threads with asynchronous action in parallel.

The code has been tested once, some of the concept are working pretty well.
But this sequence may evolve in future to match operational needs.

Given the thermal performance we have now at the summit, I guess those procedure are now obsolete.
