The University of Maryland Electron Ring (UMER) is a 11.5 meter circumference, 10 keV, electron storage ring dedicated to the study of the physics space-charge-dominated beams transported over long path lengths. The intensity of the space charge in UMER can be varied by aperturing the injected beam current from 0.6 mA to 100 mA. Recently, the electron beam has been transported over one thousand turns. To fully characterize the transverse and longitudinal evolution of the beam on a turn-by-turn basis, extraction and transport to a diagnostic station is required. We present the design of a pulsed electric extraction system that satisfies the challenging constraint of fitting the hardware within the dense magnet lattice. The extraction system must universally accommodate the range beam intensities and minimize any disruption to the circulating beam
