The 250 MeV SwissFEL Injector Test Facility (SITF) is the test bed of the future 5.7 GeV SwissFEL linac that will drive a coherent FEL light source in the wavelength range 7-0.7 and 0.7-0.1 nm. Aim of the SITF is to demonstrate the technical feasibility of producing and measuring 10 or 200pC electron bunches with normalized emittance down to 0.25 μm. A further goal is to demonstrate that the electron beam quality is preserved in the acceleration process, in the X-Band linearizer and the magnetic compression from about 10 ps down to 200 fs. The SITF movable magnetic bunch-compressor is equipped with several CCD/CMOS cameras for monitoring the beam transverse profile and determining the beam energy spread: a Ce:YAG screen and an OTR screen camera at the mid-point of the bunch compressor and a SR camera imaging in the visible the Synchrotron Radiation emitted by the electron beam crossing the third dipole. Results on the commissioning of such instrumentations, in particular in the low charge limit, and measurements of the beam energy spread vs. the compression factor will be presented.
