At line 2 added 1 line. |
+ !liquid Nitrogen |
At line 3 added 3 lines. |
+ Most of our cryostats and cryo-magnets have an outer liquid nitrogen jacket to reduce the heat load on the helium bath. |
+ The storage dewars are prepared by the sample environment staff and can be picked up at the preparation area (between FOCUS and MARS). |
+ The dewars provided are self pressurizing systems with a mechanical level indicator at the top as shown below. |
At line 5 added 9 lines. |
+ The dewars are always pressurized. |
+ *Ensure that the hose is firmly connected to the vessel and the nozzle is not pointing towards a person before opening the valve. |
+ The filling hoses have a metallic protection sleeve. The valves and the hose get very cold during a nitrogen transfer. |
+ *Make sure that you wear protective leather gloves when handling cold parts. |
+ |
+ When using the automatic nitrogen refill |
+ *test the automatic to assure that the filling hose remains in the cryostat filling port and that the system switches off correctly |
