  Being responsible for 3 GeV booster synchrotron for the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS-II, Brookhaven National Laboratory, USA, Upton) design and manufacture, Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics also designs the control and diagnostic system both for booster and its injection/extraction sections. Among others, this system includes equipment protection system, vaccum level and vacuum chamber temperature control system, beam diagnostic service system. This system is to protect facility elements in case of vacuum leakage or chamber overheating and to provide subsidiary functions for beam diagnostics. Providing beam interlocks, it processes more then 150 signals from thermocouples, cold and hot cathode vacuum gauges and ion pump controllers. The system contains nine 5U 19" chassis with hardware of each based on Allen-Bradley CompactLogix Programmable Logic Controller. All the interlock related connections are made with dry contacts, whereas system status and control is available through EPICS channel access.
