A new high voltage platform has been installed at the ORNL Multicharged Ion Research Facility (MIRF) to extend the energy range of multicharged ions available for experiments studying their collisional interactions with electrons, atoms, molecules, and solid surfaces. For the production of the multiply charged ions, a new all-permanent magnet ECRIS has been designed and fabricated at CEA/Grenoble. After a brief overview of the basic features of the new platform, and associated beam transport detailed description of the new ion source design and performance is provided, together with some typical Ar, Xe, and O beam intensities obtained during source commissioning prior to shipment to ORNL.
