Restrictions
| Instrument | Field Limit | Comment |
|---|
| DMC | 6 Tesla | |
| MARS | 6 Tesla | |
| TriCS | 6 Tesla | |
| PREP | 6 Tesla | in its trolley, far enough from "Kabelkanal" |
| HRPT | 6 Tesla | (measured forces below 200 N vertically and horizontally, even for xy table) |
| RITA II | 6 Tesla | with goniometer mounted (goniometer motors removed? - to be verified) |
| EIGER | 6 Tesla | with goniometer mounted (including gonio motors) |
| TASP | 6 Tesla | with goniometer mounted (including gonio motors) |
On EIGER the vertical force was less than 80 N at 4.25 Tesla -> no problem. (force test 2020-09-14 by MZ)
On all other instruments, to be evaluated before first use.
max. Forces on Magnet:
| horizontal | 500N |
| vertical | 500N |
max. goniometer tilt:
+-5 deg

Field Homogeneity
Solved Issues
The following problems seem to be solved after repair at Oxford Instruments (Aug 2010)
- The magnet seems to have a cold leak, occuring only occasionaly at low temperatures.
As a workaround the main vacuum has to be pumped constantly. (Jul 2009)
- The magnet sometimes quenches (only above 4.8 T) -> solved by strictly obeying the
training mode ramps.
