For improved measurements of the key astrophysical reaction 12C(α,γ)16O in inverse kinematics, a recoil separator ERNA is developed to detect directly the 16O recoils with nearly 100% efficiency. Since the 12C projectiles and the 16O recoils have essentially the same momentum and since the 12C ion beam emerging from an accelerator usually passes through a momentum filter, a sufficient absence of an 16O beam contaminant in the 12C ion beam is of utmost importance for ERNA. In the present work, a Wien filter together with a Δ/E-E telescope are used to investigate the beam contaminants accompanying a momentum-filtered 12C ion beam and to measure the level of ion beam purification achievable with the Wien filter.
