This
product line was designed specifically to facilitate superconducting
magnet research. The same advanced engineering apparent in Cryofab's
other product lines is applied in the design and construction
of the magnet dewars. The dewars are fabricated entirely of stainless
steel and will accommodate coils of all generally available magnets.
Most
of Cryofab's magnet dewars are based on a design-your-own approach.
Versatility in fabrication and design enables Cryofab to cut engineering
cost regardless of dimensions, capacity and shielding process
requested. This translates into savings of time and money for
our customers. Diameters from 2" up to 96" are within
our manufacturing capabilities. Depths also have a fairly wide
range with a maximum being 14 feet.
Another
choice is LN2 shielding or vapor shielded.
The LN2 is the traditional way to achieve
optimum liquid loss results. This is four wall construction with
the liquid nitrogen employed as an intermediate heat shield for
the helium reservoir. This dewar features all welded construction
continuously tested as it is assembled. The model designation
for this type of vessel is CSM.
The
vapor shielded vessel uses a state of the art insulation system
incorporated with welded construction to achieve an efficient
yet maintenance free dewar. Liquid helium loss rates are slightly
higher with this product but the trade off for lower pricing and
less maintenance have made it a popular choice. The model designation
for this vessel is CVSM.
There
are three main configurations to choose from, the most common
being the straight bore in which the inner walls run down to the
bottom without intervention.
The
second choice would be a belly dewar. This design enables the
experiment to have a designated liquid capacity located over the
magnet, which is situated in a tail section. Again, all dimensions,
neck, belly, liquid capacity, tail section can be fabricated to
meet customer requirements.
The
third configuration is a reservoir type where the neck is designed
to be wide enough to place an experiment into the vessel, yet
the reservoir section is wider to accommodate a larger liquid
volume.
