  • Abstract
    New belt charge regulators have been installed on the CN and EN Van de Graaff accelerators at ORNL which allow considerably more flexible control of the belt charging current than did the original circuits. Aside from the series regulator tube all components are now solid state. Control of the series regulator (at high voltage) is achieved through optical coupling.
