Popis: MedAustron is the Austrian centre for hadron therapy and non-clinical research. The beam chopper system is an essential component for patient safety in specific hazardous situations as well as for beam delivery from the synchrotron to the irradiation rooms. This paper presents the results from the development phase and the commissioning of the MedAustron beam chopper system. Details will be given on the design, the risk management, the test and the verification of the chopper power converter (PKC).
