The Brookhaven National Laboratory 200 MeV H− LINAC beam instrumentation equipment has been in operation for four decades with various changes implemented over this period. There is a need to upgrade the entire beam instrumentation system of the LINAC to improve the diagnostics of the beam from the Low Energy Beam Transport Line through the LINAC and into the LINAC Booster Transfer Line and BLIP line. Profile Monitors, Current Monitors, Beam Position Monitors, Loss Radiation Monitors, and Emittance Measurement devices are to be designed and implemented over the next three years. This upgrade will improve the operation reliability, beam quality and beam losses. Additional improvements will be obtained by designing the beam instrumentation system to integrate with other proposed diagnostics and malfunction detection and display upgrades in the LINAC Control Room to improve the overall performance of the LINAC.
