  A hadrontherapy accelerator assembly based on an FFAG ring and a variable energy H- cyclotron injector has been designed in the frame of the RACCAM project. The FFAG ring allows 2.1 Tm top rigidity, corresponding to 180 MeV proton top energy and 21.6 cm penetration depth and to 50 MeV per nucleon for carbon ions suitable for biological R&D). Variable energy extraction, bunch to pixel 3D scanning and multiport beam delivery are proposed in this installation. A prototype of a spiral sector scaling type of FFAG dipole is being built for proving the feasibility of the FFAG ring, subject to a second contribution in the conference. This paper will describe the accelerator assembly parameters and the beam properties.
