Abstract Infrared radiation induced desorption of adsorbed molecules from cryogenic surfaces can lead to potentially detrimental pressure limitation in cryogenic UHV/XHV systems. For a sub-monolayer coverage, we determined the corresponding yields for hydrogen and helium exposed to room temperature radiation to be in the order of 1·10−4 and 0.02 m2(W·s)−1 respectively. We used these yields to estimate the radiation induced pressure in the PUMA experiment, presently under construction at CERN. •Thermal radiation from room temperature causes pressure limitations in XHV cryo-vacuum systems.•The pressure limitation increases linear with the molecular coverage in the sub-monolayer regime.•We estimated the thermal radiation induced desorption yield for hydrogen and helium at 4.2 K.
