Re: [AMMRL] Quench narrowly avoided? Filling small magnets connected to helium recovery

Sounds great! There’s only one practice I‘m not so sure I‘d be a fan of: closing the valves on other magnets before the helium refill of another…:

- if there’s a quench all check valves will close anyway and won’t let any helium

pressure into the other magnets (might be that a very small amount can pass before the

check valve has time to close). After the incident they will open again by themselves

- what you haven’t touched you can’t forget (especially during/after the upheaval

created by a quench that hopefully never happens). If you forget to re-open one of them

and your magnets don’t have an emergency blowoff valve you may have the next quench approaching fast…

Cheers

Bert
