AB - TPS Linac has been providing with electron beams which conform to the specifications to the requirement since 2014. Firstly electrons are extracted from electron gun (e-gun), and they are accelerated and gained energy from 90 keV to 150 MeV in three linear accelerating sections. Then electron beams are successfully injected to the booster ring via Linac to Booster (LTB) transport line. Providing a stable and reliable operating system is next priority objective and so a temperature monitoring system is established. This temperature monitoring system is used to monitor the temperatures for each Linac sub-system and its surrounding environment. By using this temperature monitoring system, it helps to understand the relation between beam energy and working temperature for each sub-system, when Linac is under normal operation. This report will detail the temperature monitoring components, including thermalcouples, PLC thermal modules, PLC programming and graphic user interface (GUI). By integrating with EPICS, this monitoring system is becoming a complete solution for ensuring any possible influence due to thermal effects.
