A precise temperature regulation system for the injector at SACLA is being upgraded. To make stable operation of the SACLA, it is indispensable to achieve extremely high stability of the accelerator's components. At the beam commissioning, it has become clear that even a tiny fluctuation in the cooling water temperature, such as 0.1 K, for RF cavities of the injector can significantly influence on lasing stability. Although the existing temperature control system has been able to keep temperature stability of the cavity less than 0.08 K by using an ON-OFF alternatively heating method with a pulse width modulation, a laser power fluctuation has been observed, which has a strong correlation with the cavity temperature. An improvement in temperature stability for this system is expected by replacing a PLC module to a temperature controller with an extremely high temperature resolution of 0.001 K. We will be applying continuous level control of a heater with the DC power supply. This system will dramatically improve our lasing stability. This paper describes the temperature control scheme and its performance in detail.
