Introduction
Vacuum chambers in interaction region.
The major chambers of IR are made of oxygen-free Copper.

SCQ Chamber
The length of chamber is about 1.4 m.
The chamber is divided into 4 sections: front cylinder pipe with a BPM, bellows, tapered pipe and cylinder Pipe.

Mechanical Process(1)
We assumed that the mechanical process was the most difficult part, however, the machining of vacuum chambers was done well and quickly, most of these chambers have been ready to welding.

Reason for delay
The delay is mostly attributed to the welding process of BPM.
All the BPMs are made by Kyocera Company, the flange for welding is made of 30 Ni-Cu (cupro-nickels).

BPM EB-welding
At the first time, the vendor used electron beam for BPM welding test, but they couldn’t reach the ideal level. The leak rate was between 10X-4 and 10X-9mbar.l/s.

BPM EB-welding(1)
During the three months of Electron beam test, they adjusted the parameter of welding angle, depth of melt, etc; however, the figure still couldn’t rise to 10X-10mbar.l/s.

BPM EB-welding(2)
The vender considered that the flange material was inhomogeneous and the microelement ( Mn&Fe ) in material would affect welding process; therefore, electron beam couldn’t be welded well.

BPM Welding According to the discussion wi
th Kyocera technicians, the vendor knew that in the internal of BPM, the flange was brazed to ceramic at 780 degree (AgCu28).
They tried to braze BPM on oxygen free-copper at nearly 700 degree, so that they could protect the inner seam when BPM was welded.
And they come to an agreement with Kyocera technicians on this method.

BPM Braze Welding(1)
The vender made some samples to approve it was feasible to braze , success rate was above 70%.

BPM Braze Welding(2)
After being brazed, 2 BPMs’ seams leaked on the first one. 4 BPMs’ seams leaked on the second one.

BPM Repair-Welding(1)
The vendor advised to repair-welding the first one with the same solder (AgCuIn15),which it was no beneficial to seams; and it broke another 2 seams in BPM.
There are only 4 BPMs working well in each crotch chamber.

In order to tune beam in storage ring in Nov 2006, we made a pair of substitutes for vacuum chamber in Sept.

Substitute Chamber
A stainless steel vacuum chamber was installed in interaction region in Oct, and now the chambers are working well.

BPM Repair-Welding(2)
The diameter of flange in BPM is 12.5mm, we will make a hole (ø16mm) on chamber.
We braze BPM to a ring (OD:ø16mm), brazing success rate is 75%.
We weld the ring and chamber with electron beam.

BPM Repair-Welding(2)
According to plenty of tests, we believe that the heat from electron beam has no effect on the brazing seam.
Presently, making holes on chamber is under way. Because the welding seams can’t be dealt with acid, keeping the chamber clean when machining the holes is very important.

EBW
After repair-welding of BPM, the crotch chamber will be welded with bellows.

Assembly Welding of SCQ Chamber
8 pole BPM brazing test at front cylinder pipe has been done, and the braze technique is adopted.
Cylinder pipe and tapered pipe have been brazed together. At the end of May, we will assembly weld these two parts together
![Page 32: Progress of IR Vacuum Chambers](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062807/5681515a550346895dbf7c2f/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Assembly Welding of ISPB Chamber
• Multistage braze welding is very important, in order to maintain the strict tolerance required for installation through the magnets.
• We obtained the experience by means of installing substitute chambers.
• Four sections have been completed.• We need to connect three sections in a string and then weld to the fourth one.

Summary
The mechanical process is almost completed. The manufacture of
holes(ø16mm) on crotch chambers is ongoing.
Repair-welding of BPM is a hard project, and should be done step by step,
so that we can minimize the risk of damage.
The IR substitute has been installed in the tunnel and works well.
Assembly welding will be began in June this year, and many technical
problems will be confronted with, however, we have confidence in solving
them ASAP.
