AB - This article describes in detail the steps of hardware installation and commissioning of components for undulator systems at European XFEL. In general, the work can be divided into 3 different steps: installation, alignment, and commissioning. During installation step, the following main components were rolled into the tunnel: - undulators with the control cabinets, intersection control cabinets, phase shifters, quadrupole movers, correction coils. They have been mounted according to the designed positions. Then all mentioned components have been aligned according to the specifications. Finally, the cabling has been done and basic tests were performed. As part of the commissioning, the calibration of the temperature sensors, as well as the measurements of the quadrupole mover travel distance has been done in the tunnel. Afterwards, the undulator limit switches and hard stops were adjusted to secure the vacuum chamber by closing the undulator gap up to 10mm. Eventually, the system was handed over to the global control system in order to perform all functional tests. The main focus is given to the components which are controlled or monitored by the undulator local control system [1].
