Abstract The paper outlines design parameters and construction features of an electron linear accelerator to be operated in the D.I.Mendeleyev Institute for Metrology (VNIIM). The accelerator system is intended to form electron and bremsstrahlung radiation fields of variable intensity. This shall extend characteristics of the National measurement standard to be used for calibration of a space monitoring equipment, embedded measuring means for industrial accelerator facilities and others. The accelerator system consists of an electron source, resonance accelerating structure, beam-bending magnet'separator and radiation head with a block of bremsstrahlung targets, foils and collimators. An important feature of the system is spatial steadiness of radiation field at energies varied from 5 to 20 MeV and more than tenfold variation of the accelerated particle current. The status of the project will be presented as well.
