Abstract :
Since 1998 ACCEL delivers turn key accelerator for scientific applications. After three injector systems for synchrotron light sources have been successfully commissioned, ACCEL is currently producing a 0.5 to 50 MeV system for the German metrological institute in Braunschweig (PTB). Beside excellent beam energy qualities the accelerator has to operate in a wide energy range, delivering 1 to 100 W average beam power to the target. The paper will give a description of the system layout and related technical parameters. The status of the project and results of the factory acceptance test of some of the major components will be presented as well.
