      abstract     = {The UNILAC will serve as injector linac for heavy ion beams
                      for the future FAIR, with the commissioning being
                      anticipated in 2025. One of the crucial steps in the course
                      of acceleration along the UNILAC is the stripping of the
                      ions by a gas stripper in front of the main linac. Its
                      efficiency is decisive in reaching the intensities required
                      and may be increased by more than $50\%$ by introducing
                      hydrogen as stripping target, instead of the nitrogen used
                      so far. This requires the stripper to be operated in a
                      pulsed mode, since otherwise the pumping speed is not
                      sufficient to maintain suitable vacuum conditions. The proof
                      of principle was demonstrated in 2016*. A dedicated project
                      aims for a setup suitable for routine operation. Main issues
                      are safety, reliability and automated operation. We report
                      on the development done since 2016 and give an overview of
                      the realisation coming within the next few years. Results
                      from systematic measurements on the properties of the valves
                      and their impact on the properties of the stripping target
                      are presented.},
