The aim of the NEWGAIN Project (NEW GAnil INjector), is to build a second injector on the SPIRAL2 accelerator to produce and accelerate heavier beams with A/q up to 7. The NEWGAIN injector is based on 2 ECR ion sources, two LEBT, one RFQ and a MEBT lines to send new ion beams in the linac and the S3 experimental room. Diagnostic monitors are planned to measure and control beam intensities, profiles, phases, energies and emittances. A presentation of beam characteristics and a description of the diagnostic monitors are done. Modifications of the beam duty cycle system and the machine protection system are also detailed.
