1 Project Description 1.1 Magnet This HTS magnet system is designed to generate a maximum 2.6T field at 1mm above the top surface of the magnet and a maximum 2.3T field at 5mm above the top surface of the magnet. The system is cryogen-free and cooled by means of a cryocooler and an associated compressor. The system will be provided with KEPCO power supply which will allow the field to be set at any desired level or ramped continuously as required. The power supply is provided with interfaces which allow it to be operated via digital communications from a PC, or via an analogue input voltage. 1.2 Specification Description Value Peak Field (at 1mm above the top surface of the magnet) 2.6T Peak Field (at 5mm above the top surface of the magnet) 2.3T Field homogeneity over Ø10mm area at 5mm above the top surface 0.5% Maximum operating current (A) 200 Maximum ramp voltage (V) 1 Peak inductance (approx.)

1.4 Power Supply KEPCO BOP power supplies are normally used with HTS-110 magnets. These are 4-quadrant supplies offering smooth sweeps through a zero field (no switching). This magnet is driven by two KEPCO BOP 6-125MG units which are connected in parallel to provide up to 250 A @ 6V. The power supplies have communication interfaces for remote operation and are connected to the Magnet System Supervisor for safety shut-down. 1.5 Cryocooler The magnet coils are kept at operating temperature using a cryocooler and associated compressor. Specifications of this cooler are included in the Technical Information Section. 1.6 Magnet Field Control Software The relationship between field and current is determined when the magnet is tested at HTS-110. The power supply can be controlled from a PC on which the client can run its own programs to control the magnet field. HTS-110 Limited Page 6 of 17
1.7 Magnet System Supervisor All HTS-110 magnets are supplied with an in-house magnet system supervisor (MSS). The MSS monitors temperature at several points within each coil pack as well as voltage across the coils. Given the high thermal stability of HTS magnets, abnormal operating condition can be readily detected and acted on before a quench occurs. If a pre-quench condition is detected a shutdown command is sent to the power supply and the stored energy dumped through a resistor based dump circuit. The dump circuit is sized to ensure complete energy dump within required time from the sequence trigger. Approximate decay time in case of dump is in the range 1-5 seconds. 1.8 Yoke An aluminium cryostat integrated with returning yoke forms the mechanical chassis for the system. This outer yoke is manufactured from low carbon steel (AISI 1006) with a nickel coating for corrosion resistance. HTS-110 Limited Page 7 of 17
2 Infrastructure requirements (expected) For installation an oil-free vacuum pump (not supplied by HTS-110) is required. It is also recommended that a vacuum pump is available on site so that the magnet vacuum can be reconditioned from time to time.

5 Technical Information 5.1 Magnet System Supervisor (MSS) The Magnetic System Supervisor (MSS) is designed to monitor the conditions of the HTS magnet and automatically disable the power supply if the magnet begins to operate abnormally. The MSS can control the power supply attached to the magnet system via the auxiliary communication port using a standard RS-232 cable to create a fully autonomous system. The MSS fits inside 19 Rack, it is 1U tall, 10 deep and weighs 3kg. The MSS requires 47/63Hz 100-240V, 0.4A max, single-phase power. Features Five dedicated temperature channels: for simultaneously measuring up to five cryogenic temperature sensors. Two dedicated voltage channels: for simultaneously measuring up to two fully differential voltages. PC communication output: for remote control/monitoring of the system via a computer. Interlock relay output: for disabling the power supply in the event of a quench. Aux relay output: for switched control output. (optional) Status lamp: a multi-colour led for visual status update. 5.2 Key MSS Interfaces AC in Data line x <10 (from magnet) Safety interlock x <10 (to power supply) Data logging port (to PC) usage optional HTS-110 Limited Page 11 of 17
