Abstract
The requirements imposed on the lead shutter chamber include the motion of the lead shutter to locate it in open (beam on) and closed position (beam off), resistance to the radiation environment, vacuum and leak tightness, alignment capabilities of the scraper and leak tightness of its cooling circuit. In this article the radioprotection calculations demonstrating the shutter performance are presented and the mechanical system of the lead shutter and the layout of the different elements contained in the chamber are described, along with their functions.
