摘要

Purpose

The Beijing Electron Positron Collider (BEPCII) is a double-ring accelerator used for both high-energy physics experiments and synchrotron radiation research. In order to further improve the luminosity at higher energy, BEPCII has completed once new large upgrade project, calling BEPCII-U. For BEPCII-U, new injection kicker magnets and pulsed power supplies with enhanced robustness and reliability need to be developed to meet the higher physical requirements of beam energy, beam current, and synchrotron radiation.

Method

In terms of kicker pulsed power supply design: The main structure of the pulsed power supply adopts a coaxial structure to minimize the parasitic inductance of the circuit. A high-voltage fast recovery diode module is used to prevent thyratron from experiencing arc-backs. At the same time, the structure inductance further decreased because of volume of the former is much smaller than latter. In terms of local control station design: A PLC is used for the central control unit. A complex control program is developed to manage all the power supplies and other auxiliary devices in the kicker systems by the Modbus TCP protocols, which helps to build efficient and stable communication between the local control station and the remote-control system.

Results

All 4 kicker pulsed power supplies systems for BEPCII-U are developed successfully replacing the original pulsed power supply systems, and all performance specifications are tested. The output amplitude stability of the kicker pulsed power supply is better than 0.5%, and the output pulse time jitter is lower than 5 ns.

Conclusions

The new developed kicker pulsed power supply excellently meets the design requirements. The local control station of the kicker pulsed power supply is operating well. It can perform online real-time monitoring of all key parameters of the power supplies, enhancing the operational efficiency.
