Funding: Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy, Office of Science, Office of Basic Energy Sciences, under contract DE-AC02-06CH11357 The APS Upgrade storage ring multi-bend acromat lattice uses 1000 individually-powered multi-pole magnets operating at current levels to ~260A. Requirements for power-supply stability, repeatability and reproducibility are of the order of 10 ppm. MBA SR q u a d m a g n e t a n d Q - b e n d dipole magnet current regulation will require a higher level of accuracy, precision, stability, and independent control than existing APS systems. In order to meet these requirements, the upgrade will include the installation of 1000 new unipolar power supplies. To monitor and ensure the performance of the power supplies, an independent precision current measurement system is under development, based on a commercially available DCCT sensor. An in-situ calibration system is also required that will maintain the ensemble accuracy of the measurement system and magnet-to-magnet relative calibration by providing precise known calibration current to each of the 1000 DCCTs distributed around the 1100-meter ring. R&D on the in-situ cross-calibration scheme is being performed using a network of 6-8 full-spec DCCTs. This paper discusses the proposed approach, and results and lessons from the R&D program. |
