[AMMRL] "bag-less" helium-recovery

Dear Community,

I was wondering if there is anyone out there willing to share their experience
with the He-recovery systems like the one from Quantum Technologies
(Picasso/ "All-metal") ---- or similar? --- which have the characteristic feature
that they works without a "balloon" to collect He. Instead, the He boil-off is
directly purified and re-liquefied. In case of high flow (eg. during fills), a
compressor switches on and stores excess flow to a medium pressure container for
later recovery. The advantages are the smaller space requirements and the helium
reaching the purifier less contaminated.

But perhaps there are obvious downsides which I am not seeing, especially since
this solution does not seem to be widespread.

Best regards

Chris
