Quench Vent Systems

Ensuring MRI Safety: Expert Installation of Cryogen Vent Systems

Cryogen vent systems are an essential part to a MRI’s functionality. Most MRI machines use liquid helium (Cryogen) to cool down the superconductive magnet’s coil. As cryogens are released to keep the magnet cool, they evaporate into odorless, colorless, and tasteless gases and must be vented safely out of the building with the use of a cryogen vent pipe. Albatross Projects Americas GPS specializes in the supply and installation of these pipe systems. We are familiar with the different specifications of each magnet and can assist in the design calculations before the system is installed.
