Abstract
A superconducting magnet designed to study cyclotron central regions and ion sources is under construction. Two split coils were used to provide an approximately flat field in the range of 2-8 T. The coils were epoxy potted and banded by stainless steel wire, and the winding form was removed from the coil to reduce the shear stresses. The horizontal and vertical support links were attached to the median plane structure. The pairs of the coils were weakly connected for independent excitations. The stresses in the coils and quench protection have been studied to ensure coil safety.<>
