Sumitomo F50 Compressor Manual < ORIGINAL >

Must match the specification on the nameplate (three-phase).

The Sumitomo F-50 is a water-cooled, helium-driven compressor designed to supply high-purity helium gas to cryogenic refrigerator cold heads. It operates on a closed-loop system, continuously recycling helium gas while removing heat and oil contaminants. Key Technical Data

MR Signa Horizon LX 1.5T/3T, Signa Architect, Discovery MR750 3.0T, and MR Spinlab Polarizer. 2. Technical Specifications

Improper installation is the leading cause of premature compressor failure. The manual emphasizes several critical environmental and mechanical requirements. Location and Space Requirements sumitomo f50 compressor manual

Keep the ambient room temperature between 5°C and 35°C (41°F to 95°F) with non-condensing humidity. Connecting Utility Lines

The adsorber charcoal trap filters out trace oil vapors. Once saturated, oil migrates to the cold head, causing catastrophic failure.

To ensure safe and efficient operation, follow these general guidelines: Must match the specification on the nameplate (three-phase)

Access to and understanding of the is vital for facility engineers and technicians. It ensures system uptime, protects expensive equipment, and prevents catastrophic failures. This comprehensive guide covers the essential sections of the manual, detailing technical specifications, installation steps, routine maintenance schedules, and troubleshooting protocols. 1. Specifications and Requirements

Tracks cumulative run time. This is critical for scheduling mandatory maintenance intervals.

The Sumitomo F-50 is a water-cooled, three-phase helium compressor designed to deliver high-purity helium gas to a cold head. It compresses low-pressure return gas from the cryocooler and sends high-pressure gas back to drive the cryogenic cycle. Key Specifications Key Technical Data MR Signa Horizon LX 1

Phase rotation matters. If the three-phase power is wired incorrectly, the compressor scroll will run backward, causing immediate internal damage. Check the phase rotation indicator light on the control panel before startup. 3. Operation and Gas Pressure Management

Provides documentation for compressor units used in MRI systems.

Maintain at least 30 cm (12 inches) of clearance on all sides for ventilation and service access. Leveling: Place the unit on a flat, vibration-free surface. Cooling Water Specifications

Here are some key features and specifications of the Sumitomo F50 compressor:

Shut down the compressor and disconnect the main power source. Disconnect the helium gas lines connected to the system.
