microIOC BLM
Count the particles that got lost.
microIOC BLM is a turnkey beam loss monitor solution used for detecting the level of beam losses and determining loss locations. It is suitable for synchrotron light source or particle accelerators.

Dedicated BLM signal conditioner (BSC) was designed, which handles two BLM detectors. A BLM cable with the 3-voltage power supply, enable/disable control lines and output line is part of the package with adequate connectors. BSC unit regulates the voltages and conditions the BLM counts. Multiple BSC units can be daisy-chained via RS-485 to form a cluster, connected to the microIOC. microIOC provides power supply to BSC units using PoE Power-over-Ethernet standard and also acts as a bridge towards the control system.
Key features
  • small and compact BSC unit; interface to 2 BLM sensors
  • wall and DIN rail mountable BSC units
  • cables length between microIOC and BSC unit up to 1200 m
  • cables length between BSC unit and BLM sensor up to 30 m
  • up to two BLM detectors per single BSC

Benefits
  • bundled solution; from sensors to the operator
  • no extra power supply is required
  • inexpensive and flexible UTP cabling between signal conditioning units
  • connect up to 64 BLM sensors to single microIOC (using 8 RS485 ports)
  • comprehensive GUI for beam loss monitoring and localization

  • diagnostic beam loss monitoring in synchrotron storage ring during normal operation
  • beam loss monitoring at insertion device commissioning for troubleshooting
