Abstract In modern particle accelerators, the horizontal dispersion function is forced to zero at locations with instrumentation measuring the transverse beam distribution, in order to remove the dispersive contribution to the horizontal beam size. The design of the CERN Proton Synchrotron did not foresee such a zero-dispersion insertion, making it challenging to get a good precision on the beam size measurements. In this contribution, we present a new optics configuration, which allows to reach zero horizontal dispersion at the locations of different beam size measurement locations. This can be achieved by powering a set of trim quadrupoles, the so-called Low Energy Quadrupoles (LEQ). We investigate how the resulting optics perturbation affects beam parameters.
