Abstract: In Huludao a new base for the development center of the cyclotron is about to be built by China Institute of Atomic Energy. Two cyclotrons will be built in this facility. To prevent received overdose of radiation during the operation and commissioning, we designed a set of radiation monitoring and safety system for the machine. This system serves to protect the operating personnel and the public from accidental ionizing radiation damage. To fulfil the safety requirements, a dose monitoring and safety interlock system based on a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) has been developed. This system promise that no operator stays in the control zone during operation and beam can’t be delivered to the area under maintains. This paper elaborates in detail on the design structure of this system and the control logic. Additionally, it describes the expected effects when the system is operated in the cyclotron research and development center at the Huludao Base.
