  High precision power supplies are used to power various accelerator magnets to generate stable magnetic field required for various dynamic functions of the charged particles in an Accelerator system. High current stability of the order of 5ppm to 100ppm depending on the various functional applications of the accelerator magnet is the main feature of these power supplies. The paper describes the various technical aspects and considerations depicting ripple reduction techniques, regulating loops, high precision temperature controller, R.F. pick-up attenuation, power dissipation control, handling of the input supply line power disturbances etc., which are important for achieving high stability of the power supply.

  In 2008-2009, NIIEFA specialists performed works on updating the "ELECTRON-3M" accelerator previously delivered to FSUE "Admiralty Shipyards" to be operated on the line for radiation curing of polymer coatings. After obtaining nominal parameters on the updated accelerator "ELECTRON-3M2", the intensity of bremsstrahlung radiation on the surface of the accelerator shielding was measured; the obtained data confirmed the machine compliance with corresponding norms and regulation documents. Measurements of parameters of the accelerator electron radiation field have demonstrated that the uniformity coefficient of the beam current linear density is 5%, and the symmetry coefficient amounts to 1%. The beam current and accelerating voltage instability during one hour of operation does not exceed 1%. After the updating, the lifetime of the accelerator will be not less than 10 years.
