Abstract
The electron cyclotron resonance heating system for the W7-X stellarator is a joint effort of the Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik in Greifswald, the Institut für Plasmaforschung Stuttgart and the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe under the supervision of the latter. Currently it is being constructed at the Greifswald branch of IPP. It will consist of 10 gyrotrons (each with 1 MW 140 GHz in the CW regime) and a quasi optical multi-beam transmission line. W7-X gyrotron candidates are being developed separately in Western Europe and the USA. The prototype phase of the gyrotrons is almost over and significant results have been achieved. The manufacturing of the transmission line is ongoing. An overview over the system including data acquisition and control issues will be given and the current status of the construction will be presented.
