2.4.A5.2 Conventional Magnets<br />

DRAFT<br />

Preparative tests of normal conducting magnets, such as insulation test, cooling water flow, etc.,<br />

are part of the factory acceptance tests (see section 2.4.A5.2.1) of each individual magnet and are<br />

not considered as part of the site acceptance test. Thus magnetic measurement is the main measurement<br />

task to perform for normal conducting magnets. Special consideration is required if<br />

cold-warm transitions in the beamline are necessary (e.g. for injection and extraction of the synchrotrons).<br />

The measurement methods applied to the main magnet types are given in Table 2.4.41.<br />

2.4.A5.2.1 Factory Acceptance Tests<br />

Samples for BH Curves<br />

They have to be provided by the manufacturer. These will be used to assert that the properties of<br />

the steel match the specification. If possible, the manufacturer should also measure these samples.<br />

Yoke Packing Factor<br />

The dipoles and quadrupoles of this ring are made of laminated steel. Thus the packing factor has to<br />

be measured for the whole magnet or at least for all its individual packs.<br />

Pole geometry<br />

The field quality is mainly formed by the shape of the pole. Thus the shape of the pole itself as well<br />

as the position of one pole to the other(s) has to be measured.<br />

Electrical Safety<br />

The magnet producer will have to ensure the save electrical operation of the magnet. As part of this<br />

requirement the insulation of the coils and connections has to be tested up to a voltage Vmax of<br />

(Vmax = 2 Vop + 1000 V) with Vop the maximum operational voltage in the branch of the machine,<br />

where this magnet is to be connected. This test is typically conducted immersing the coil in water<br />

and filling the cooling channels of the coil with water at the maximum acceptable pressure level.<br />

Interlock systems<br />

The water flow and the water temperature through the magnets will be monitored by the machine<br />

safety system. Therefore flow and temperature interlocks have to be installed at the water inlet and<br />

outlet.<br />

Magnetic Measurement of main magnets<br />

Machine operation requires precise data of the field of the magnet for the main magnets. The<br />

magnetic field of dipoles and quadrupoles has to be measured at:<br />

• injection field,<br />

• mid field,<br />

• maximum field,<br />

for DC operation. If the magnets are also ramped quickly, measurements have to be performed<br />

which allow to estimate the field strength and the field quality for the whole operation cycle with<br />

sufficient accuracy.<br />
