RE: vt shim cooling

Dear All,

     As for Andrew Gibbs 2nd point, all Bruker customers who think they
will ever do long vt experiments very far from room temperature should
include this adaptor explicitly on their order and insist on having it
at installation. It not only protects the magnet from a quench, but
will alleviate the problem with shimming varying for a very long time
after you are done with the vt experiment.

Hi,

I assume this question has already been answered, but I just thought I'd

throw in my comments for good measure!

1) There is a temperature sensor in the shimset so if you have a concern
you
can check this value and take appropriate action! The example au
program
in the standard release is named 'coiltemp', which runs in the
background
and logs the temperature to a file. For extra safety you could also
think
to modify this program to take action if a temperature range is exceeded

(for example of this try
ftp://ftp.bruker.co.uk/pub/uknmr/auprogs/coiltempmon).

2) If you need one an adaptor is available for Bruker spectrometers that

allows the connection of gas to flow over the shimset. You should
contact
your local Bruker office to get more details and a price!

Best wishes,

Andrew
