Abstract

A high-power RF test stand was designed and constructed at the Advanced Photon Source for testing of 352-MHz RF components. A shielded test bunker with a controlled-access monitoring system provides personnel protection. A water manifold system accommodates single-cell and five-cell RF cavities to provide rapid connections to cooling water lines. A patchbay-style low-level RF system allows for rapid configuration of rf monitoring and control electronics, including two cavity tuner control systems. A programmable controller is utilized to provide complete flow and temperature monitoring and interlock functions for the device being tested. Full EPICS monitoring of all test parameters is provided
