SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, a multipurpose laboratory for astrophysics, photon science, accelerator and particle physics, is currently building an upgrade to the World’s First X-ray Free-Electron Laser (LCLS-II). In the past years, SLAC Vacuum Laboratory has prepared, tested, and assembled many of the beamline components and the activity is still in progress.
This presentation will go through the manufacturing and quality check processes, documentation and installation check lists that were developed to meet the LCLS-II UHV and Particle Free requirements. Especially, in order to meet Particle Free requirements new equipment and facilities were acquired. The vacuum group worked to establish new procedures and made sure that selected personnel developed the requested skills, best practices, and gained the experience necessary to complete a successful installation.
