Beam Position Monitors (BPM) based on capacitive buttons are designed for the FAIR Proton-LINAC, constructed as an extension of the existing GSI facility. This LINAC is aiming to produce a maximum design current of 70 mA at the 70 MeV energy with an accelerating frequency of 325 MHz. At 14 locations, the BPMs will measure the transverse beam position, the relative beam current and the mean beam energy by time-of-flight method. Depending of the location, the BPM design has to be optimized, taking into account an energy range from 3 MeV to 70 MeV, a short insertion and a beam pipe aperture changes from 30 mm to 50 mm. Some of BPMs will be mounted very close to the CH cavities and special care must be taken to suppress the pickup of the strong rf-field from that cavities. In this contribution, the status of the BPM design will be presented.
