Project X Injector Experiment radio frequency quadrupole has recently been built for Fermilab by Berkley laboratory. This RFQ will be placed after the low energy beam transport (LEBT) and before the medium energy beam transport (MEBT). The RFQ will operate at 162.5 MHz in CW regime; its function is to accelerate and focus particles coming from the LEBT at 30 keV, and to deliver a beam at 2.1 MeV to the MEBT. In order to make sure that the RFQ meets the specifications of field flatness and frequency the field in the vanes should be measured using bead pull technique. FNAL created a new single wire bead pull set up for the RFQ of PXIE. The measurements are used to find the electrical center of the structure, then the amplitude of the electromagnetic field in all the sectors of the RFQ; and the tuning will be based on these measurements. This paper describes the bead pull experimental set up, the software developed for this particular application and the measurements taken.

  325 MHz superconducting Single Spoke resonators (SSR1) will be utilized in the Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE). Developed in Fermilab the main power coupler will be supply 2kW CW RF power to each cavity. Fermilab developed and designed the special test stand where the couplers will be tested up to 10 kW and design properties be confirmed. This paper describes the design of the coupler test stand and preliminary results of the tests.

  Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE) at Fermilab will utilize 162.5 MHz CW RFQ accelerating cavity. Design of new main power coupler for PXIE RFQ is reported. Two identical couplers are supposed to deliver approximately 100 kW total CW RF power to RFQ. Unique design of the coupler allows providing DC bias for multipactor suppression. Results of RF and thermal simulations along with mechanical design are presented.

  The Project X Injector Experiment (PXIE) at Fermilab will include one cryomodule with eight 325 MHz single spoke superconductive cavities (SSR1). Each cavity requires approximately 2 kW CW RF power for 1 mA beam current operation. A future upgrade will require up to 8 kW RF power per cavity. Fermilab has designed, procured and tested two prototype couplers for the SSR type cavities. Status of the 325 MHz main coupler development for PXIE is reported.
