Abstract
Tests of the 200A and 500A versions show excellent agreement with calculations and have operated without incident for some time. A 5000A version of a slightly different configuration has functioned well for over six months. The introduction of the fast ramp down circuits has substantially increased the flexibility of the Neutrino beam line by permitting the effective use of the accelerator flat top.
