  • Page 9: Introduction

    Control 2 (BMPC/2). To maximize reliability and up-time, the BMPC/2 features redun- dancy of several components of the sub-cooling technology, most importantly the sub- cooling pump. As the pump is subject to wear, BMPC/2 operation is based on an appro- priate backup and a cyclic replacement scheme.

  • Page 10: Modes Of Operation

    In addition to the monitoring and control of the pump system the BMPC/2 also monitors the magnet status and the main cryogenic system parameters. The monitoring system also features an alarm function. The main functions include: • Monitoring of the magnet status and the most important cryogenic system parame- ters.

    12.3.3.6 BMU 4.x The Bruker Magnet Monitor Unit BMU4 is used on ultra-high field magnets which are not operated in conjunction with an AVANCE NMR console. The BMU4 is then used to mon- itor the liquid helium level in the cryostat, the status (on/off) of the compressor(s) for the active refrigeration system, as well as the temperature of the cooling water for the com- pressor(s).

  • Page 105: Figure 12.25: The Pulse Tube Cooler Compressor Settings

    12.3.3.7 PTC Compressor Bruker’s Aeon NMR magnet systems rely on pulse tube coolers to provide active refrig- eration. The pulse tube cooler in an Aeon magnet is supplied with pressurized helium by a compressor, whose correct operation is constantly monitored by the BMPC. The com- pressor is connected to the industrial PC via an RS232 interface.

  • Page 106: Alarm & Phone System

    If the compressor status (on/off) is monitored through the compressor’s serial interface, the parameter "Compressor Status Timeout” denotes the value from which a counter runs down when the compressor is off. Alarm- and warning values can then be set on this counter to ensure that alarms and warning are issued after the compressor has been off for a certain amount of time.
