Operation and Control

First test with 50Amps (~5.7T) worked!
  • Power Supply : OXFORD IPS 120-10 (Max.12 Amp @10Volt)
    • Software Remote-control: IPS_120-10_v04.vi
    • ! Change of Range when increasing the current at ~4.3A, when decreasing at ~3.4A! Don't get scared by the noise :)
  • Persistent current switch:
    • Upper magnet - BOX VII, X9:1/4 ,RHeater(4K)=135.
    • IHeater=55mA. The TVL-10 is used as current supply.
  • The region of the experimental platform between the first nuclear stage and the dilution refrigerator is compensated to 5mT when both magnets are at their full field.


Magnetisation and Demagnetisation Procedure

Thermalisation of the nuclear stage after ramping the magnet up to 4T (RUN-67).
  • After ramping the magnet the first nuclear stage must be precooled again. The temperature dependence varies as T~t-1/3.
  • The first nuclear stage was demagnetized by reducing the field in steps by a factor of 2 to a final field of few mT.
  • Sweep Rate B>0.5T : R=2T/h.
  • Sweep Rate B<0.5T : decrease by a factor of 2 proportional to the field.

Upper Magnet (UM)

Connection to upper magnet
  • Connection on window side of cryo. Power-cable are marked red (+) and blue (-).
  • Bmax = 8T, diameter 100mm.
  • I/B-Conversion: B(I) = 0.099 T/A * I[A] , ( 80.68 A = 8 T )
  • Sweep Rate: 1 T/h = 10 A/h = 0.167 A/min
  • Heater of PCS: BOX VII, X9:(1/4)

Lower Magnet (LM)

Connection to lower magnet.
  • LM NOT YET TESTED SO FAR!
  • Connection on door side of cryo. Power-cable are marked green (+) and white (-).
  • Bmax = 9T, diameter 50mm.
  • I/B-Conversion: B(I) = 0.115 T/A * I[A] , ( 78.4 A = 9 T )
  • Sweep Rate: 1 T/h = 8.7 A/h = 0.145 A/min
  • Heater of PCS: BOX VII, X10:(1/4)


Connection

  • To Power supply: M6 (#13 box wrench, #6 Allen key).
  • To Upper Magnet: Connection on window side. Power-cable are marked red (+) and blue (-).
  • To lower magnet: Connection on door side of the cryostat. Power-cable are marked green (+) and white (-)
  • AMP-Plug (connected witch BOX VII): Control of two persistent current switches, read-out of two Pt-100 and of two heaters.
    • The persistent current switches are used to create and maintain the magnetic fields with the current source.
    • With the help of the two attached Pt-100 Thermometers at the bottom (BOX VII, X6) and top (BOX VII, X7) of the magnet you can monitor the temperature during the precooling precess with liquid nitrogen (LN).
    • Finally you can also use the two heaters consisting of two solder sticks to decrease the waiting time while warming up the cryostat.


AMP PLUG

AMP male jack

The magnet is controlled via BOX VII. Therefor BOX VII is connected by a Amphenol 32PIN Plug with the AMP 24PIN male jack of the magnet. In doing so not all pins of the magnet are connected with the Amphenol Plug at the top of the cryostat! These pins are number: 17-23.
