Two Fermi-type neutron beam choppers have been successfully phased when driven by fractional horsepower synchronous motors with power supplied by a motor generator source. A simple and accurate method of varying the phase is described. Results indicate that this relatively inexpensive chopper drive system is as satisfactory for certain neutron time of flight experiments as a system employing an oscillator and power amplifiers.
