Description
Essential for operation of the APS booster and storage ring are the high power radio frequency (rf) systems. The high-power rf system consists of five individual 100-kV, 20-A DC power systems each feeding its respective 1-MW continuous wave klystron. Each power system contains a medium voltage electrical substation, a 1400-V SCR gated voltage regulator, a 100-kV rectifier, an ignitron crowbar stack, and a hard tube modulator. Performance and upgrades to these klystron power systems will be discussed.
