Abstract In the Taiwan Photon Source project, the storage ring includes 24 sectors (each of length 14 m) of an aluminium vacuum chamber system. The design, manufacture, cleaning, welding and assembly of the vacuum components were undertaken by the NSRRC vacuum group. The ultimate objective is to attain a leak-tight, ultra-high vacuum and a vacuum system with a small rate of outgassing. In this work, we used a residual-gas analyzer (RGA) to analyze the variation of residual gas during proceeding toward ultra-high vacuum. This process, which led the pressure down to ~10⁻¹¹ torr, includes baking, operation of ion pumps, degassing of hot cathode gauges and activation of NEG pumps. When a sufficiently small low pressure is attained, the ion pumps are turned off to test the building up of pressure. The outgassing property and the variation of the residual gas of the aluminium chamber and the ion pumps can be measured.
