Abstract Worldwide there is a push for producing medical isotopes using particle accelerators rather than fission reactors. Here we report on the operation of the beam test facility (BTF), set up and operated at the RI site in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany, comprising a dc-photogun designed for producing 99 Mo in the Lighthouse facility and commissioned by the Institute for Radio Elements (IRE, Belgium) 1. The gun is based on the successful CBETA design by the Cornell University3. The existing design has been reworked and integrated with a fully automatable photocathode production facility (PPF) designed for series production and exchange of photocathodes (PC).
