Description
In the framework of the low emittance high brilliance Elettra 2.0 project four 130 kW continuous way 500 MHz Solid State Amplifiers (SSA) have been installed and commissioned. These SSAs are already used for the RF plants in operation at Elettra having replaced the aged klystron and IOT based amplifiers. The Elettra user up time has improved since their placing in service providing a reliability check for the next Elettra 2.0 storage ring. The SSA assembly, commissioning and their features are presented here together with the reuse of the IOT based amplifier for the Booster operation
