Abstract: Within the framework of the European, project MYRTE (MYRRHA Research and Transmutation Endeavour) of the H2020 program, a 4-Rods RFQ (Radio Frequency Quadrupole) has been designed at 176.1 MHz RFQ for accelerating up to 4 mA protons in CW (Continuous Wave) operation from 30 keV up to 1.5 MeV. A LLRF prototype has been developed to regulate the amplitude and the phase of the accelerator field into the RFQ and the frequency of the RFQ controlling the motor of the frequency tuner. The facility at Louvain-La-Neuve will be presented with a focus on the LLRF system used and some preliminary results.<br />Comment: Poster presented at LLRF Workshop 2019 (LLRF2019, arXiv:1909.06754)
