  A turn key 50MeV linac manufactured by Thales has been installed in the BESSY II facility. This linac will replace the existing Microtron injector in the near future to provide more flexible bunch population patterns for the femto-slicing operation mode and a higher single bunch intensity for top-up injection. This paper describes the essential problems which have been faced during commissioning and presents the main results obtained in the site acceptance tests including the measurement of beam emittance and energy spread.
