  TRIUMF has been funded to build an electron linac with a final energy of 50 MeV and 500 kW beam power using TESLA type 9 cell superconducting cavities operating at 1.3 GHz at 2 Kelvin. The e-linac consists of an electron gun, buncher cavity, injector cryomodule, and two main-linac cryomodules. The injector module has one 9-cell cavity whereas each of the accelerating main-linac cryomodules contains two 9-cell cavities. It is scheduled to install the injector and one main accelerating cryomodule by 2014. Six power couplers, each rated for 60 kW cw, have been procured for three cavities. The injector cryomodule will be fed by a 30 kW cw inductive Output Tube (IOT) and the accelerating cryomodule will be powered by a 290 kW cw klystron. In order to install the power couplers in the cavities, they are to be assembled and conditioned with high power rf source. A power coupler test station has been built and tests of two power couplers have began. A 30 kW IOT has been commissioned to full output power and it will be used for the power coupler test. In this paper, test results of the rf conditioning of the power couplers under pulse and cw mode will be described.

  The TRIUMF Advanced Rare Isotope Laboratory (ARIEL) is funded since 2010 June by federal and BC Provincial governments. In collaboration with the University of Victoria, TRIUMF is proceeding with construction of a new target building, connecting tunnel, rehabilitation of an existing vault to contain the electron linear accelerator, and a cryogenic compressor building. TRIUMF starts construction of a 300 keV thermionic gun, and 10 MeV Injector cryomodule (EINJ) in 2012; the designs being complete. The 25 MeV Accelerator Cryomodule (EACA) follows in autumn 2013. TRIUMF is embarking on major equipment purchases and has signed contracts for 4K cryogenic plant and four sub-atmospheric pumps, a 290 kW c.w. klystron and high-voltage power supply, 80 quadrupole magnets, EINJ tank and lid, and four 1.3 GHz niobium 9-cell cavities from a local Canadian supplier. The low energy beam transport and beam diagnotics are being installed at the ISAC-II/VECC test facility. Procurement is anticipated October 2012 for the liquid He distribution system.
