Abstract
The product testing phase of the IMPELA(TM) family of accelerators is complete and commercial production has begun. The prototype accelerato r built at the Chalk River Laboratory has been operating at 50 kW for over 2 1/2 years and has provided the information base for the new pro duct engineering and production team. A first commercial machine has b een commissioned at the Cranbury, N.J., plant of E-Beam Services, Inc. , and is now in service at full power. Technical performance data and the implications for future radiation users are presented.
