Abstract
Power interruptions can play havoc with UHV systems operating with a turbopump, and particularly when these systems are being baked out. A power failure has the effect of venting a turbopump, using the commercial vent valve designed to prevent oil back-streaming from the forepump into the turbopump and the vacuum chamber during a power interruption.
