The value, parameters, conditions and compatibility of the FAT tests will be specified during<br />

Preliminary <strong>Design</strong> Review unless they are previously specified in the <strong>Technical</strong> Specification.<br />

As an example of a FAT with reference to the components is shown below:<br />

1. Cable and Coil Tests:<br />

• The most important dimensions of the coil are measured during the manufacturing<br />

process.<br />

• The CuNi tube for the cable must be certified for its tightness by the manufacturer.<br />

Otherwise a helium leakage test will be performed prior to the coil winding. After coil<br />

winding the coil will be tested for helium tightness.<br />

• Insulations tests (after coil winding, assembling with the yoke, assembling with the<br />

cryostat).<br />

• Continuity test after each steps involve instrumentation<br />

• The mass-flow through the cooling channel is measured with fixed input pressure > 1<br />

bar and output pressure ~ 1 bar.<br />

2. Yoke Tests:<br />

• The most important dimensions of the yoke are measured during the manufacturing<br />

process.<br />

• Measurement of magnetic permeability of the yoke material<br />

3. Cryostat Tests:<br />

• The most important dimensions of the cryostat are measured during the manufacturing<br />

process. After assembly of the cryostat the leakage is measured to assure that the required<br />

insulation vacuum can be achieved.<br />

• Geometry of the magnet inside the cryostat.<br />

4. Instrumentation and Sensor Tests:<br />

• The internal resistance and insulation versus ground is measured.<br />

• Voltage taps: a measurement of the contact to the coil and to the sensors is performed.<br />

5. Vacuum chamber Tests:<br />

The vacuum chamber test is described in related chapter.<br />

6. Magnet Tests:<br />

• Continuity Test of all type of taps (voltage, current, temperature sensors), resistance<br />

and inductance tests.<br />

• Insulation Test – min. twice the operation voltage plus 500V during 2 min. between coil<br />

and ground .<br />

• Shorts between wires in the coil – e.g. high voltage discharge test and comparison with<br />

the results of the manufacturing stage.<br />

• Vacuum Test of the cryostat – the results has to show a leak rate better than 10 -8 mbar/s.<br />

• Vacuum Test of the helium process lines – the results has to show a leak rate better than<br />

10 -8 mbar/s.<br />
