In the framework of the CERN Large Hadron Collider Injectors Upgrade (LIU) Project, the Proton Synchrotron (PS) has been equipped with two new movable Internal Dumps (PSID), each of them capable of absorbing particle beams of an energy of up to 100 kJ. These dumps replace the old Internal Dumps, which have been operated in the accelerator complex since their installation in 1975 until their decommissioning and removal from the machine during the second LHC Long Shut down (LS2). This contribution will address the construction and testing phases of the new PSIDs, including the assembly of the dump core, its actuation system and the respective shielding, mechanical running-in tests, metrology adjustments, Ultra-High Vacuum (UHV) and impedance acceptance tests. The described installation work was completed successfully, and the new generation Dumps are currently operational in the PS machine.
