A Computerized Monitoring and Control System for the Gas-Mixture Preparation Complex for Experiments on Muon-Catalyzed Fusion

A computerized system for monitoring and controlling the gas-mixture preparation complex of the TRITON installation is described. The installation is designed for experimental investigations of muon-catalyzed fusion in triple mixtures of hydrogen isotopes H/D/T over wide ranges of temperature and pressure. The system is used to control the entire complex of gas-mixture preparation, the target parameters, and the gas-mixture composition, as well as to carry out radiation monitoring. Good performance characteristics, the high reliability of the system, and the possibility of its rapid adaptation to new tasks have been demonstrated in physics experiments.
