Cryogenic System for Production Testing and Measurement of Fermilab Energy Saver Superconducting Magnets

The cryogenic system of the Fermilab Magnet Test Facility has been used to provide cooling for the testting of approximately 1200 Energy Saver superconducting magnets. The system provides liquid helium, liquid nitrogen, gas purification, and vacuum support for six magnet test stands. It provides for simultaneous high current testing of two superconducting magnets and non-high current cold testing of two additional magnets. The cryogenic system has been in operation for about 32000 hours. The 1200 magnets have taken slightly more than three years to test.
