An intense L-band electron linac is now being commissioned at ACEP (Advanced Center for Electron-beam Processing in Cheorwon, Korea) for irradiation applications. It is capable of producing 10-MeV electron beams with the 30-kW average beam power. For a high-power capability, we adopted the traveling-wave structure operated with the 2π/3-mode at 1.3 GHz. The structure is powered by a 25-MW pulsed klystron with 60-kW average RF power. The RF pulse length is 8 μs while the beam pulse length is 7 μs due to the filling time in the accelerating structure. The accelerating gradient is 4.2 MV/m at the beam current of 1.45 A which is the fully beam-loaded condition. In this paper, we present details of the accelerator system and commissioning status.
