  We discuss the progress made on a new installation in Fermilab's Main
Injector that will help investigate the electron cloud phenomenon by making
direct measurements of the secondary electron yield (SEY) of samples irradiated
in the accelerator. In the Project X upgrade the Main Injector will have its
beam intensity increased by a factor of three compared to current operations.
This may result in the beam being subject to instabilities from the electron
cloud. Measured SEY values can be used to further constrain simulations and aid
our extrapolation to Project X intensities. The SEY test-stand, developed in
conjunction with Cornell and SLAC, is capable of measuring the SEY from samples
using an incident electron beam when the samples are biased at different
voltages. We present the design and manufacture of the test-stand and the
results of initial laboratory tests on samples prior to installation.
