Operational performance and future upgrades for Indus-1 RF systems

The Indus-1 RF system is in operational state since August 1997. Indus-1 RF system has demonstrated to be very reliable and flexible and low failure rate usually did not cause interruption of machine operation. The low level control system has been completely installed in the year 1999 with the installation of phase loop to the desired stability, the amplitude and tuning loop was installed in the beginning phase. For the beam of 192 ma. (Max.) at 450 MeV no Home tuners were needed, as no dangerous frequencies were present. With 100 m.a. of beam stored at 450 MeV sufficiently good lifetime was achieved with Ion Clearing Electrodes Supply put On. The Booster Synchrotron RF system has been in operation since 1995. In addition to total 8000 hours of Indus-1 RF system run, Booster Synchrotron RF system has run for around 16000 hours. New upgrades of both the systems are discussed
