The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) will collide two protons beam with an energy of 7 TeV each. The stored energy and intensity exceeds the quench level of the superconducting magnets and the damage level of the machine components by far. Therefore a robust and reliable collimation system is required which controls the losses to the superconducting magnets below the quench limit and to protect the accelerator components from damage in the event of beam loss. The layout and design of the LHC collimation system is presented and the expected system performance is shown. The calculated losses around the ring were provided as input for energy deposition studies in the cleaning insertions itself but also close to experimental insertions. In addition the results from studies on proton losses originating from p-p interaction in the experiments are shown.
