  Vacuum system for the 3 GeV Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) has been started the construction since 2010. The critical components such as the bellows and gate valves with rf-contact shielding, pulsed magnet kicker ceramic chambers, BPM, crotch absorbers, etc. have been manufactured and tested. Aluminum alloy (Al-) vacuum chambers for the arc-cells have been machined and undergoing the in-house welding. Mass production of the vacuum equipments including the ion gauges, ion pumps, NEG pumps, and gate valves, has been contracted out and partially delivering following the schedule of the cell assembling. Each cell, contains two short Al-straight chambers and two Al-bending chambers, has been started the assembling and on-site welding on the pre-aligned girders in clean room forming an one-piece vacuum vessel about 14 m in length following by the vacuum baking to the ultra-high vacuum. The conceptual design of the vacuum systems for the long straight sections, the concentric booster, and the transport lines, will be addressed. The progress of prototyping development and the status of construction for the TPS vacuum system will be described in this paper.

  The construction of a new 3 GeV synchrotron facility, Taiwan Photon Source, is ongoing. The vacuum system has been designed with off-site baking for arc section from sector gate valve to sector gate valve. There is no flange used in this arc section besides the two ends connected to sector gate valves. It is a tedious works for install such long vacuum system with aluminum chambers. In this poster, all the detailed installation procedures will be described. All the precaution inspection procedures for all vacuum components to prevent failed components to be installed will also be described. Every three weeks, one cell will be assembled and stored. Experience is being learned and could be used for the vacuum system of future new accelerator like FEL and others.

  Taiwan Photon Source (TPS) with beam energy 3 GeV and beam current 500 mA is a third-generation synchrotron radiation facility of medium energy. In the initial commissioning stage of TPS, the machine will be equipped with ten insertion devices (ID) and serve seven beamlines in phase I. Of these, three long straight sections configured as a double-minimum betay function lattice design with minimized beam influence of emittance are used for the installation of a pair of insertion devices in a straight section, two undulators of APPLE-II type and four in-vacuum undulators (IU), to produce great brilliance and coherent X-rays with great flux. The details of these insertion devices are explained herein.
