  Former measurements of extracted ion beams from the GSI heavy ion synchrotron SIS showed large current fluctuations in the microsecond region with a high peak-to-average ratio. To adapt our Cryogenic Current Comparator (CCC) to this time structure the detector’s electronics have been carefully modified. The most important improvement of the new DC SQUID system affects the enlargement of the bandwidth and the slew rate of the measuring system. In addition the existing data acquisition system for e.g. SEMs (Secondary Emission Monitors) was extended to digitize the CCC signals simultaneously. Measurements of Argon beams will be shown to demonstrate the improved capabilities of the upgraded Cryogenic Current Comparator.
