	The superconducting CW- LINAC of the radiation source ELBE is in permanent operation since May 2001. In 2011 an upgrade program of ELBE is in progress to support additional applications. One part of the program is to double the RF-power per cavity to at least 16 kW. We first tested a 30 kW IOT-based amplifier (Bruker /CPI) at a cavity, later two 10 kW solid state amplifiers in parallel.

The superconducting CW- LINAC of the radiation source ELBE is in permanent operation since May 2001. In 2011 an upgrade program of ELBE is in progress to support additional applications. One part of the program is to double the RF-power per cavity to at least 16 kW. We first tested a 30 kW IOT-based amplifier (Bruker /CPI) at a cavity, later two 10 kW solid state amplifiers in parallel. The best solution found is based on 10 kW Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPA) developed by Bruker BioSpin. The poster gives an overview on the status, the activities around this RF-upgrade project and the technical specification of the “turnkey” SSPA , designed for 10 kW, 1.3 GHz and full CW-operation.
