  The proposed Multi-Turn Extraction (MTE) for the CERN PS allows to reduce the overall extraction losses for high intensity beams. The required longitudinal structure of the proton beam induces unavoidable beam losses at the magnetic extraction septum. The installation of a dummy septum with an appropriate shielding has been proposed to localise losses and to shadow the magnetic septum. Such a device, located in the extraction region, imposes tight constraints on the available beam aperture. Modified extraction schemes have been proposed and in this paper they will be presented and discussed in detail together with the measured performance.
