Abstract :
The cavity development is done in two steps: the design concept is first verified with a fully operational model cavity and then, based on this experience, a 1:1 scale prototype cavity is constructed and fabricated. At present we are in-between the two steps. This work presents the proposed layout for the new full scale cavity and summarises the results gained with the model cavity. Special emphasis is given on the transient behaviour of the tuning system under large load changes
