Multi-reflection time-of-flight (MR-ToF) devices have arisen as indispensable tools at radioactive ion beam (RIB) facilities. These electrostatic ion beam traps act as highly-selective mass separators providing purified ion beams to subsequent experiments as well as high-precision mass spectrometers enabling mass measurements of short-lived nuclei. Efforts are ongoing to push the limits of these devices, enabling higher resolving power and/or ion throughput. State-of-the-art devices operate with a few keV of beam energy, however simulations detail the need to pursue higher energies. To this end, a high-voltage MR-ToF device has been designed for the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) enabling both high mass resolving power and high ion throughput. Such a device will enable precision mass measurements of short-lived ions as well as the delivery of pure high-intensity beams to subsequent experiments in the stopped and reaccelerated beam areas at FRIB.
