A 20kA $\pm$0.12% Pulsed Power Supply for the PIP-II ORBUMP Injection Dipole Magnets

RESUMO

Fermilab has embarked on its next evolution for future neutrino experiments through the Proton Improvement Plan II (PIP-II). The injection system now requires an increase from a 15 Hz to a 20 Hz injection rate with approximately a 30% increase in the field strength from the original Orbital Bump (ORBUMP) dipole magnets in the Booster ring [1]. The four series connected dipoles will require 3 kV, 20 kA, 660 $\mu$s pulses at the aforementioned injection rate with a flatness of $\pm$0.12%. This is achieved through a dual-capacitor pulsed power supply (PPS) comprised of ten parallel cells and must last for 25 years. The supply utilizes high-voltage film caps for the rise and fall portion of the waveform; however, it switches over to a 6 F electrolytic capacitor bank for the flattop portion to meet flatness. The supply utilizes energy recovery to reduce high voltage charging supplies and required power to operate.
