    Facility for Rare Isotope Beams
AbstractCameras observing scintillating viewers provide a valuable tool for tuning heavy ion beams. The close placement of these cameras near intense stray neutron and ion radiation, particularly at elements intercepting the primary beam, presents a unique reliability challenge. Commercial solutions are sparse, expensive, and sometimes tightly regulated. We present common failure modes observed at FRIB and propose solutions to extend the lifespan of unspecialized industrial cameras using consumer-grade hardware and open-source software.
