  The "Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research" (FAIR) is a new international accelerator complex, which is currently built in Darmstadt, Germany. Part of this complex is the SIS100 heavy ion synchrotron with a circumference of ~1086 m. To inject ions into the SIS100, an injection kicker system will we required. For fast extraction of the particle beam from the SIS100, an extraction kicker is used. This extraction kicker will be a bipolar system, this way it works as an emergency kicker at the same time. The fast kicker systems have to produce a current pulse >6 kA. To achieve this, energy storages are charged up to voltages >70 kV and are quickly discharged. The pulse durations vary from 0.5 us to 7 us, depending on the kicker type and the operation mode. Slow extraction of the ion beam will include an electrostatic septum, operating with voltages up to 160 kV. The requirements of these injection/extraction devices will be described in detail and the status of the projects will be presented.

  The extraction and emergency kicker system for SIS100 is a bipolar kicker system that allows for an in-situ choice between two directions: extraction to the experiments or to the beam dump. For that, both magnet ends are connected to a PFN each which are being charged simultaneously up to 80kV continuously. Due to the static HV operation, different to usually in other pulsed kicker systems, not only displacement current is flowing in the ferrite material. After less than 1s, the ferrite material is nearly field-free and the E-field is concentrated in the surrounding ceramic magnet clamp mechanism. As the field is further concentrated in gaps between ceramic and metallic parts, the HV layout of the magnet is a critical design task. As a magnetic field homogeneity of ±1% is required, special shaping of the coil is required as found during iterative 3D field simulations. The kicker chamber is designed to operate at a pressure level of 3·10-11 mBar. As one 3 meter-chamber contains 3.5 m² ferrite surface, careful vacuum heat treatment of the ferrite is required to reach this pressure level. The paper will describe design principles for HV and UHV and effects found by 3D modeling.
