K-Series User Interface.

ScandiNova’s versatile control system with integrated digitizer allows easy management and optimization of your system. All ScandiNova pulse modulators, RF units, and pulse generators are equipped with this modern interface for calibration, diagnostics, and adjustments.

The system supports a wide range of pulse shape modifications. Amplitude, pulse width, and frequency can be easily adjusted and visualized via the user-friendly GUI. It also provides status overviews for key components, triggers, interlocks, and a real-time event log. With optional EtherCAT remote control, individual pulse voltage levels can be set.

ScandiNova’s wide range of RF systems, built on unique solid-state technology, take our customers’ applications to new levels of reliability and precision. The compact design saves space, reduces costs, and creates new opportunities. Easy installation and lower operating expenses further reduce the total cost of ownership. Today, our systems power some of the world’s most powerful particle accelerators.

Key features.

  • Reliable modular design with low primary voltage levels ensures high operator safety and reduces component failures from thermal and electrical stress.
  • Lower cost of ownership thanks to high efficiency, minimum consumables, fewer unscheduled stops, and cooling costs at about half of those for line-type PFN modulators.
  • Precise pulse control of shape and amplitude enables optimal transmitter performance. Peak and average power can be adjusted over time to meet changing requirements.
  • Comprehensive digital interfaces allow easy setup, parameter adjustments, performance monitoring, and data logging.
