  The CLIC Test Facility 3 (CTF3) injector will provide pulsed beams of high average current; 5 A over 1.56 μs at 140 keV. For transverse beam sizes of the order of 1mm, as foreseen, this implies serious damages to the commonly used scintillating screens. Optical Transition Radiation from thermal resistant radiators represents a possible alternative. At low energy the OTR emission is feeble and distributed over a large solid angle. In order to investigate the feasibility of such a diagnostic studies have been carried out on a test 80 keV photo injector. The experimental set-up is described and the results are compared to the calculations based on the OTR emission theory. Our conclusions for the design of the CTF3 injector profile monitor are also given.
