24 dipole magnets, 108 quadrupoles, 72 sextupoles and 82 steerers are needed in the storage ring. The very stringent requirements for the magnet field quality were met with the use of a combination of 2D and 3D magnetic design. The dipoles are combined function elements with a field index n=13 and a maximum magnetic field of 1.5 T at the central orbit. The curved (R=5.5 m) pole profiles were obtained by matching the stacked laminations. The quadrupoles and sextupoles are made by assembled pole pairs in a C shaped structure with the aperture on the outer side of the ring. To insert the vacuum chamber inside the magnets this structure allows a symmetric opening of the yoke. The steerer magnets provide both horizontal and vertical magnetic fields; an inverted U shape with a 3D optimization of the vertical field coils and positions was studied to provide space for the connection of vacuum pumps. >

The Elettra storage ring will be filled with a 2 GeV electron beam from its full energy linear accelerator. Two pulsed septum magnets will be housed in a vacuum tank and four identical fast kicker magnets in air, with an internal ceramic vacuum chamber, will be symmetrically placed around the mid-point of a single straight section. The layout of the injection section, the design of the main individual components, their manufacture and the results of the relevant test are presented and discussed. >

Two septum magnets are used to deflect the 2 GeV electron beam coming from the transfer line into a trajectory which is parallel to that of the beam circulating in the storage ring Elettra. The septum magnets will be housed in a UHV vacuum tank, thus avoiding a physical separation between the transfer line and the storage ring vacuum systems. In order to obtain a high injection efficiency, the two magnets will be individually supplied with a high peak pulsed current and their positions can be individually adjusted with an external mechanical system. The design of the whole system, the manufacture and the results of the relevant tests are presented and discussed. >
