FOREWORD

This APS/AES Design and Drafting Standards manual has been compiled in order for the
Advanced Photon Sources Design and Drafting Group to better communicate design
requirements to our customers and vendors.
hen components are built for the Advanced Photon Source! close adherence to the standards
established in this manual are essential. "ollo#ing these standards means that the components
#ill meet our requirements! and more importantl$! that the components supplied b$ the
vendors #ill meet the Advanced Photon Sources qualit$ standards for the useful life of the
facilit$.
Although this manual presents a consolidation of available information! it is impractical to
include all data pertinent to the fabrication of components% therefore! sound reasoning and good
&udgment must be e'ercised in ma(ing interpretations from this manual. )n addition to this
manual the Design and Drafting Group adheres to the industr$ standard for dimensioning and
tolerancing! AS*E +,-../0112.
This Standard is to be applied as a graded approach as outlined in Table , in each of the Group/
specific Engineering Document *anagement Plans. Table ,! reproduced belo#! outlines the
graded approach for revision trac(ing of controlled documents in different repositories% as the
safet$ requirements and cost increase so should control level or rigor increase as outlined in
Table 0! for the controlled documents.

CHAPTER 1: GENERAL STANDARDS
100 INTROD1,TION
Adherance to general drafting rules and practices is important for producing dra#ings of
consistent and professional qualit$. The use of special or local practices is strongl$
discouraged to ensure accurate interpretation of the #ide variet$ of APS dra#ings
produced. )n this chapter! designers are assumed to alread$ have a thorough (no#ledge
of drafting and! therefore! most basic rules and practices are omitted. 4onventional
facilities and electrical dra#ings follo# separate standards! #hich can be found in
separate chapters.
The accurac$ and adequac$ of design and drafting #or( and its compliance #ith the
applicable standards remain the responsibilit$ of the engineer! designer! or drafter.
Aothing contained in this manual shall be construed as relieving the engineer! designer!
or drafter of their individual responsibilit$ for producing qualit$ dra#ings.
This chapter onl$ covers basic rules and practices% for a more detailed loo( at drafting

CHAPTER 2: AUTOCAD PRACTICES
/00 INTROD1,TION
The standard soft#are at APS for creating ne# mechanical dra#ings is Pro/E. Auto4AD!
ho#ever! has a number of roles at APS including creating and revising electrical
schematics! ra$ tracings! and conventional facilities dra#ings.
Small revisions to e'isting Auto4AD mechanical dra#ings are acceptable. <o#ever!
#hen a revision is e'tensive! it is strongl$ suggested that consideration be given to
recreating parts in Pro/E. The benefits of having a solid model for use in a Pro/E
assembl$ ma$ #arrant the time required for the format conversion. The choice of
#hether to invest this time is primaril$ left to the designer and engineer.
The purpose of this section is to outline recommended general Auto4AD practices that
promote drafting efficienc$ as #ell as accessibilit$ and portabilit$ of dra#ings.
/01 GENERA2 A1TO,AD R12ES
0.,., STA3T)AG A AE D3A)AG
Ae# dra#ings should be started using the APS Auto4AD template. This template
contains APS standard dimension and te't st$les as #ell as la$ers and should load
automaticall$ #hen a ne# dra#ing is started. See Table ,M, for a complete listing of
standard Auto4AD la$ers and linet$pes.
NOTE: If the template does not automatically load after pushing the new drawing icon,
there may be a problem with the profile (preferences! "ontact "omputer #upport to
correct this problem!
All Auto4AD support files such as s$mbols! templates! title boc(s! etc. are located on the
server 9ead 5NP@ drive% "igure 0M,6. A standard profile 5ddr.arg6 that contains paths to
these support directories is also available. The profile ma$ be customiKed locall$ as a
cop$ for specific #or( requirements. "or help #ith profiles and support files! please
contact the 4AD supervisor.

Cnl$ standard dra#ing scales are acceptable. 9a$outs that can be much larger are an
e'ception and can be scaled such that the$ #ill fit reasonabl$ on one sheet of paper.

CHAPTER 3: PRO/E PRACTICES
300 INTROD1,TION
Hecause Pro/E is a parametric =D modeling soft#are pac(age! considerable time must
be ta(en to develop a plan before beginning. A good model is a simple one #ith a
minimum number of features that can be easil$ modified. Even more important! the
structure of a part or assembl$ model should be quic(l$ understandable b$ an$ designer
#ho has to #or( #ith it. The follo#ing are basic guidelines for creating models #ith
these goals in mind.

"unctional dimensioning should be used to minimiKe the creation of additional
dimensions #hen ma(ing a dra#ing. 9imited use of Ncreated dimensions on a dra#ing is
acceptable.
=.,.0 *CDE9 D)*EAS)CAS
As the APS continues to fabricate more parts directl$ from the model! it is ver$
important that the dimension scheme #ithin the model matches that of the dra#ing. )t
is critical to incorporate in the model significant digits! tolerances! and notes that
include dimensions. Dimensioning features from surfaces creates a more robust and
fle'ible model.
=.,.= 9C4AT)AG "EATB3ES
The use of relations and constraints is recommended in locating features and is up to
the designers discretion. This allo#s for future modifications of the part siKe #ithout
affecting the feature location.

803 1;> DESIGN ,ONSIDERATIONS
hen designing components of a B<8 s$stem! it is critical that ever$ aspect of the
design and fabrication method be speciall$ considered. )mproper design! fabrication
and handling of a B<8 component can result in virtual lea(s! unacceptable outgassing!
and even contamination of an entire section of connected components! ma(ing a B<8
level vacuum impossible in a reasonable amount of time.
Note: The *ey of good 8&2 design is to reduce outgassing and 1irtual lea*s!
D.=., *ATE3)A9S
There are a limited number of materials that are acceptable for use in a B<8 s$stem.
Stainless steel! aluminum! and ceramics are the most common and ine'pensive. The
primar$ characteristic of these materials that ma(e them appropriate for use in a B<8
vacuum is their lo# outgassing rates.
Cutgassing has t#o main sources@

,. I%te%al St)$t)e / All commercial metals have some amount of gas trapped
#ithin their internal structures as a result of the formation process. The
Ioutgassing rateJ is a measure of this source onl$.
0. S)"a$e I*p)ities / A second source of outgassing is the evaporation of oil! dirt!
or an$ other foreign substance from a materials surface as the pressure is

e'tremel$ clean at installation.
D.=.0 SB3"A4E TE7TB3E
The effect of surface te'ture on pumping speeds is debated b$ vacuum engineers
#orld#ide. Some engineers believe that a rough surface increases the overall surface
area and the resulting la$er of impurit$ atoms attracted to it. A better surface te'ture
5i.e.! less surface area and fe#er impurit$ atoms6 is thought to result in a faster pumping
speed. Although this issue is debated! APS engineers generall$ prefer to specif$ a better
surface te'ture. As a general rule! surfaces internal to the vacuum s$stem should be at
least ?= microinches or better. Ele$topolis-i%' is necessar$ #hen a surface te'ture of
=0 microinches or better is required.
Ele$topolis-i%' is the reverse of electroplating. A D4 electrol$tic circuit is constructed
#ith the #or( piece as the anode. As current is applied! material is stripped from the
surface #ith material removal occurring preferentiall$ from an$ raised location.
D.=.= 8)3TBA9 9EAFS
A vit)al lea& is not a true lea( at all. )t is onl$ the appearance of a lea( that is caused b$
the slo#! continuous release of trapped gas into the s$stem. The gas is actuall$ trapped
#ithin small spaces not full$ connected to the main chamber. As the s$stem is being
pumped do#n! the gas in these spaces is restricted and does not evacuate as quic(l$ or
thoroughl$ as the main chamber. )t can be difficult to discern a true lea( from a virtual
lea( since the$ behave the same.
Note: 2irtual lea*s are usually caused by poor mechanical design and can be completely
pre1ented!
The most common sources of virtual lea(s are@

There are a number of practices that are t$picall$ used on an$ B<8 component to
reduce outgassing. Each step in the preparation and handling of B<8 components is
time consuming! so fabrication and installation lead times must be generous.
Permanent contamination of a section of accelerator components can occur b$ ta(ing
shortcuts and not follo#ing APS/approved B<8 procedures.

4utting fluids containing silicone! sulfur! phosphorous! or halogens are unacceptable for

The numbers used on all APS engineering dra#ings are based on the numbering scheme
of the APS D44. There are three basic numbers a designer must request from the D44
for each dra#ing. These three numbers #ill appear in the dra#ing title bloc(. The
Idra#ing number!J #hich could be considered a fourth number! is merel$ a combination
of the HS and 9DA numbers. A designer obtains these numbers b$ filling out a
Dra#ing 4hange Aotice 5D4A6 form.

The D44 operates a #eb/based IElectronic D4A S$stemJ that allo#s designers to quic(l$
