Cryogen Vent Pipe and Quench Systems

Cryogen Vent Pipe and Quench Systems


We have decades of experience in the design manufacture, and installation of flues, exhausts, flue dilution and extract systems , this also includes Quench pipes for MRI machines.


Quench pipes are used in MRI machines to help prevent the formation of dangerous magnetic fields.


The quench pipe is installed between the magnet and the quench vent and works by dissipating the energy from the magnetic field. This helps to prevent the formation of a quench, which is a sudden release of energy that can cause damage to the equipment and potentially injure patients or staff members.


Quench pipes are an essential safety feature in MRI machines and are required by law in many jurisdictions. They are also used in the manufacturing process for MRI machines, and they are used during installation to ensure that the machine is properly calibrated. The pipes play an essential role in ensuring the safety of patients and staff members, and they are an important part of any MRI machine.
