Commissioning plan of the klystron and modulator system for 100MeV proton accelerator

Proton Engineering Frontier Project (PEFP) is developing a 100MeV proton linear accelerator for basic science research and industrial applications. The installation of the klystron and modulator system for 100MeV proton accelerator starts in September 2012 when the modulator room and the klystron gallery are prepared in the accelerator building at Gyeongju. There are total 9 sets of klystron for the 100MeV proton accelerator and 4 sets of modulator to power the klystrons. Each 3 sets of modulator drive the 2 sets of klystron simultaneously and the last one drives 3 sets of klystron in parallel. After the proper installation, the commissioning of the system starts step by step from the low power test of the modulator to high power test of the klystron. In this paper, a brief introduction of the installation and commissioning plan of the klystron and modulator system are presented
