Summary

InstrumentAllowed maximum field [Tesla] Conditions
AMOR 4 field perpendicular beam
AMOR 6.8 field parallel beam
RITA-II 4 ... 6.8 see below
SANS-I 6.8 / 6.2 (full field) with spin flipper only when field perpendicular to beam
SANS-II 6.8 / 6.2 (full field)
TASP 6.8 see below (A3 does not move > 4 Tesla)
EIGER 6.8 / 6.2 (full field)goniometer removed
ZEBRA 6.8 / 6.2 (full field)L1 = 1500 mm, L2 = 785 mm (1D detector)
ZEBRA 5 / 5 L1 = 1000 mm, L2 = 785 mm (1D detector)

Restrictions on RITA-II

Goniometer removed.
Provisional force measuremnents on RITA-II have shown that the operation of MA7 on Rita-II is allowed:

* at a distance of more than 680 mm or a2 angles < 42.7 the analyser tank touches the wall at a4 ~= 45

For any other configuration force tests have to be redone.

MA7 Original Data

How the distance has to be measured. In this example the distance is around 400 mm.

Restrictions on AMOR

Force tests after major instrument upgrade 2023-11-21:

Allowed field when perpendicular to beam: 6.8 Tesla (forces 300 N horizontally, 480 N vertically)

Field parallel to field: 3 Tesla (horizontal force 280 N, guide field is moving, not secured enough! this should be fixed)

Restrictions on TASP

Goniometer removed.
Beryllium Filter Distance 27 cm (see photo)
Sample table - Monochromator - 73 cm

A2 a4 Allowed field
-92 < A2 < -41 (Ei=14.7 meV)<= 119 6.8 Tesla

WARNING: Motor A3 may not move with a field > 4 Tesla

This data is derived from the force test 7. July 2015:
4.8 Tesla, horizontal force 150 N (towards Beryllium filter), vertical force 180 N.

Restrictions on SANS

Allowed up to maximum field independend of the field direction.

With spin flipper only when field perpendicualr to beam and in asymmetric mode. Other configurations with spin flipper have to evaluated.

Force measurements (without spin flipper):

parallel to beam 4.9 Tesla 80 N 340 N
perpendicular to beam 4.9 Tesla 110 N 180 N
