An integral shutter is a device that integrates a white-beam stop, monochromatic-beam (mono-beam) shutters, a safety stop, and a collimator into one assembly to save space in the photon beamline. Various integral shutters have been developed as standard components for the beamlines at the advanced photon source. The integral shutters are designed to be operated in white-beam mode or mono-beam mode. With regard to safety, each mode of operation is secured by locking certain devices in their up or down positions. Some of the components of the integral shutters share designs similar to the front-end shutters or fixed masks. Design details of the integral shutters are presented.
