The National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II) is a state-of-the-art 3-GeV third generation light source currently under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The NSLS-II injection system consists of a 200 MeV linac, a 3-GeV booster synchrotron and associated transfer lines. The first part of the Linac to Booster Transport (LBT) line has been installed for linac commissioning. This part includes all components necessary to commission the NSLS-II linac. The second part of this transport line is undergoing installation. Initial results of hardware commissioning will be discussed. The Booster to Storage Ring (BSR) transport line underwent a design review. The first part of the BSR transport line, consisting of all components necessary to commission the booster will be installed in 2012 for booster commissioning. We report on the final design of the BSR line along with the plan to commission the booster.

The National Synchrotron Light Source II, a 3-GeV, 792-meter circumference, synchrotron radiation facility with ultra-high-flux and –brightness, is under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory. The storage ring vacuum chambers are mainly made of extruded aluminium but with a few made of stainless steel and inconel. The synchrotron radiation from bending magnets is intercepted at discrete photon absorbers made of GlidCop. NEG strips in the ante-chamber provide the distributed pumping, while lumped ion pumps and titanium sublimation pumps at photon absorbers remove the desorbed gas. The complex vacuum system is being assembled and integrated in-house. This paper describes the design and fabrication of both standard and special vacuum chambers, the low impedance RF shielded bellows and the photon absorbers. The vacuum system is now moving into the conditioning, installation and testing phase. Details and experience from the large scale production, testing and lesson learned will also be presented.
