The industrial production prototype of the ITER gyrotron was tested at the new test stand in Kurchatov institute with power 1 MW in 500 second pulses, and 0.9MW in 1000 second pulses. Operation reliability of the gyrotron in long pulses and output power modulation characteristics also were studied. Last year one more gyrotron prototype was fabricated and its testing began. Simultaneously at IAP a short pulse gyrotron with an increased size cavity was tested at power 1.5–2 MW. In the long pulse version 1.2 MW pulses with duration 100 second were registered.
