Abstract A novel generation of fast Beam Wire Scanners (BWS), developed in the framework of the LHC Injectors Upgrade (LIU), has been recently deployed in the 3 LHC injector synchrotrons, accelerating protons from 160 MeV to 450 GeV, during the 2019-2020 LHC long shutdown. The monitors feature high precision motor controller, high resolution wire position monitoring and wide dynamic range secondary particles detectors. This contribution will document the commissioning of the 17 new systems during the accelerator complex restart in 2021, which is an exciting and challenging phase in the life cycle of an instrument. A summary of the so far achieved levels of reliability, reproducibility, detectors/DAQ bandwidth and overall accuracy, will be used to revisit the options for further improving the systems’ performance in the future.
