HARDWARE FOR INCREASING RELIABILITY OF THE POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM FOR CORRECTOR ELECTROMAGNETS

A magnet system of modern accelerator facility requires many controlled electromagnets for correcting a beam location. Every corrector electromagnet is fed by personal precise power supply usually. Using many precise power supplies reduces the reliability of power supply system. One of solution for increasing reliability is designing the power supply system with redundancy. It may be implemented by addition of reserved power supplies and «hot swap replacement» units. When some power supply is failed the control system switches this magnet to reserved power supply, redirect the data flow and all operations is going on. The paper describes the hardware solution used for increasing reliability of power supply system for European free electron laser.
