sendels 1.1 1 The new rotating fast shutters are able to select single pulses (or pulse trains if in multi-bunch mode) out of the generic 10 Hz repetition rate of the FLASH machine.
2
3 The rotating shutter consists of a thin aluminium (forseen was glassy carbon) disk which contains an outer trace with 6 equidistant slits. The disk is driven by a DC-motor outside the vacuum. A magnetic rotary feedthrough carries the motion of the motor into the vacuum. A programmable logic controller (PLC; programming done by Jan Tolkiehn) is used to control the system including a low-voltage DC-motor with rotary encoder and a planar light barrier. To pass a pulse through the shutter, the motor is triggered to rotate when one pulse hits the shutter. During the following 100 ms, the motor rotates the shutter disk by 30°, leading to a movement to the fully open position, thus allowing the passage of the following pulse. During the next 100 ms the rotation is continued to the 60° position, thus blocking the next pulse by turning the disk to the fully closed position.
