Abstract

This paper describes this water system and some of the construction parameters of the water cooling complex; it presents recommended solutions to many of the problems encountered in operation and maintenance. Particular attention is given to: The selection of strainers and filters; maintaining a high purity low oxygen content water system in the presence of a mixture of materials; the choice of proper insulating hoses and other fittings when voltages up to 600 volts dc are impressed across the hoses. Magnet design problems, and problems associated with a conductive deposit that forms on the inside surface of hoses subject to voltage gradients are also discussed.
