  A ½ MW capable CW electron linac is being designed and constructed at TRIUMF in support of the existing Rare Isotope Beam program. In the simplest configuration, the beam makes a single pass through three cryomodules to the RIB production targets. However, after the construction of a recirculation path, beam could make a second pass through two cryomodules with the RF phase advance adjusted to give energy recovery. Here it is proposed to time-interleave two bunch trains, and via an RF separator and septum, to direct one single-pass train to RIB production and the second train through the energy recovery ring that contains an IR FEL. It is also the intention, in single user mode, to use the ring as an energy doubler. This paper describes the RF separation scheme and options for the extraction optics that satisfy the requirements of “simultaneous” beams to two users.
