Fast pulsed magnets with ferrite yokes are used in CERN?s SPS accelerator for beam injection, extraction and excitation for tune measurements. The impedance of the ferrite structures can provoke significant beam induced heating, especially for beams with high peak currents as for LHC operation, even beyond the Curie temperature. The expected heating in the different kicker systems for various operational modes is compared with beam measurements. Estimates of the beam induced power have been derived from measured beam spectra. A fast extraction kicker system has recently been equipped with a cooling system. The measured cooling performance is compared with data from laboratory setups and numerical simulations.
