Although the deuterium and helium have almost the same mass,a Penning Optical Gas Analyzer(POGA) system on the basis of the spectroscopic method and Penning discharging has been designed on EAST,since 2014.The POGA system was developed successfully in 2015,it was the first time that EAST could detect helium partial pressure in deuterium plasma(wall conditioning and plasma operation scenario).With dedicated calibration and proper adjustment of the parameters,the minimum concentration of helium in deuterium gas can be measured as about 0.5% instead of 1% on the other tokamak devices.Moreover,the He and D_2 partial pressures are measured simultaneously.At present,the measurable range of deuterium partial pressure is 1?×?10~(-7)mbar to 1?×?10~(-5)mbar,meanwhile the range of helium is 1?×?10~(-8) mbar to 1?×?10~(-5)mbar.The measurable range can be modified by means of the adjustment of POGA system’s parameters.It is possible to detect the interesting part of the gas with a time resolution of less than 5 ms(the 200 ms because of conductance of transfer pipe at present).The POGA system was routinely employed to wall conditioning and helium enrichment investigation in2015.Last but not the least,the low temperature plasma of POGA is generated by normal penning gauge Pfeiffer IKR gauge instead of Alcatel CF2 P,which has been suspended for a few years and was used for almost all the POGA systems in the world.
Although the deuterium and helium have almost the same mass, a Penning Optical Gas Analyzer (POGA) system on the basis of the spectroscopic method and Penning discharge has been designed on EAST, since 2014. The POGA system was developed successfully in 2015, it was the first time that EAST could detect helium partial pressure in deuterium plasma (wall conditioning and plasma operation scenario) .With dedicated calibration and proper adjustment of the parameters, the minimum concentration of helium in deuterium gas can be measured as about 0.5% instead of 1 % on the other tokamak devices. Moreover, the He and D_2 partial pressures are being measured simultaneously. At present, the measurable range of deuterium partial pressure is 1? x 10 ~ (-7) mbar to 1? x 10 ~ 5) mbar, meanwhile the range of helium is 1? × 10 ~ (-8) mbar to 1? × 10 ~ (-5) mbar. Measurable range can be modified by means of the adjustment of POGA system’s parameters. It is possible to detect the interesting part of the gas with a time resoluti on of less than 5 ms (the 200 ms because of conductance of transfer pipe at present). The POGA system was routinely employed to wall conditioning and helium enrichment investigation in 2015. Last but not the least, the low temperature plasma of POGA is generated by normal penning gauge Pfeiffer IKR gauge instead of Alcatel CF2 P, which has been suspended for a few years and was used for almost all the POGA systems in the world.
