A 1 MV AMS system will be installed at the Instituto de Datación y Arqueometría (INDyA), located in the province of Jujuy, Argentina. We have acquired an AMS system developed by HVEE that will be used to measure 14C, 10Be and 26Al. The system comprises a Tandetron accelerator with 1 MV terminal voltage capability and features two analyzing magnets in the high-energy spectrometer which can be compared to the more commonly configuration with just one analyzing magnet. The additional magnet results in optimal performance for low-background applications. With the collaboration of the National Atomic Energy Commission, the instrument will be installed in Palpalá, province of Jujuy.
