All vacuum sections in the in the S800 have automated control of venting and pumpdown that operates valves and pumps (but not ion gauges) in the right sequence with the appropriate delays. In beamline section containing detectors, this automated control must be coordinated appropriately with steps to protect detectors. | All vacuum sections in the in the S800 have automated control of venting and pumpdown that operates valves and pumps (but not ion gauges) in the right sequence with the appropriate delays.
