The two high voltage power supplies feeding the acceleration grids of the injectors are of the transformer–rectifier type, taking their primary energy from a pulsed [[TJ-II:Power supply|flywheel generator]], and are coupled to the acceleration grids through a switching device. | The two high voltage power supplies feeding the acceleration grids of the injectors are of the transformer–rectifier type, taking their primary energy from a pulsed [[TJ-II:Power supply|flywheel generator]], and are coupled to the acceleration grids through a switching device. | ||

In order to keep reionization losses at an acceptable level, the maximum allowed pressure during the beam pulse is 10<sup>−4</sup> mbar, which requires an installed pumping speed of 350,000 l/s. Titanium getter pumps have been chosen as the primary vacuum system for these injectors. Base pressures in the range of 5 × 10<sup>−9</sup> mbar are attainable with titanium pump operation. | In order to keep reionization losses at an acceptable level, the maximum allowed pressure during the beam pulse is 10<sup>−4</sup> mbar, which requires an installed pumping speed of 350,000 l/s.

A carbon fiber composite (CFC) target calorimeter has been installed to study the power density distribution of the neutral beams in situ. The thermographic print of the beam can be recorded using an infrared camera, permitting a reliable analysis due to the highly anisotropic thermal conductivity of the target material. Direct conversion from temperature to power density is possible due to independent thermocouple measurements on two adiabatically mounted copper buttons. With the combined thermographic and calorimetric measurements it has been possible to determine the power density distribution of the beams. | A carbon fiber composite (CFC) target calorimeter has been installed to study the power density distribution of the neutral beams in situ.
