The injection into a separated sector cyclotron (SSC) aimed at the production of a high power 800MeV/amu molecular H2+ beam for ADS-Reactor applications * is being designed. This work includes the definition of the parameters of the injection line, as well as beam dynamics simulations of the line and first accelerated turns using the OPERA magnetic field maps of the cyclotron sector. Both schemes of radial and vertical injection are assessed. Various optics codes are employed for that as MADX, Zgoubi. The paper details and discusses various aspects of that design study and its outcomes.
