A compact 12 barrel deuterium pellet injector for plasma studies in the C 2 field reversed config uration device (USA) is described. As in other multibarrel injectors, pellets are simultaneously formed inside short barrel segments that are cooled to 8-10 K. The injector has such features as low pellet velocities (up to 50 m/s), which are provided by a puncher mechanism built into the gas admission valves, and the capability of plasma fueling with a pellet "needle" with a length to diameter ratio of up to 15.
