Beginning from 1971, the Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics Siberian Branch of Russian Academy of Science (SB RAS) is manufacturing of electron accelerators of the ELV-type. The ELV electron accelerators are DC machines purposed for wide application in various technological processes.ELV accelerators are the most popular Russian accelerators. Over 110 accelerators are operating both inside Russia and abroad. ELV accelerator can be equipped with a wide set of supplementary devices extending the application range. There are systems of ring and double side irradiation, 4-side irradiation system, extraction device for concentrated electron beam, transportation systems for cable, film and grain. ELV accelerators very easy can be integrated in technological processing due to excellent control system based on PC computer. The different models of accelerators are covering the energy range from 0.3 to 2.5 MeV with a power of accelerated electrons beam up to 400 kW.
