Abstract	The energy spread of the ISIS 70MeV H- injected beam is reduced using an RF debunching cavity. The existing cavity consists of a mild steel vacuum vessel containing a water-cooled copper shell into which Radio Frequency (RF) power is fed. The unit is made up of components designed for the 50MeV Proton Linear Accelerator (PLA) which used to occupy the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL) site between 1957 and 1969. The component drawings date back to the late 1960s. Due to its age, complexity and a lack of spares, there is a need for a modern solution. This paper documents the development of a new debunching cavity for the ISIS neutron source.
