All helium-3 refrigerators (inserts and cryostats) are available from a pool on request. The tailoring of these systems to individual experiments requires a considerable amount of effort and the choice of system and scheduling of experiment must be made in conjunction with our team. Sufficient advance notice to sane(at)ill.fr is therefore required for their reservation. As regards the preparation of the experiment, users are kindly invited with their local contacts to bring the sample to the workshop of the Advanced Neutron Environment team at least a day before the starting date.

All requests for liquid helium should be made at least 48 hours in advance. Please arrange with your local contact to order your helium. If you are not familiar with transferring liquid helium between dewar and cryostat, please do not hesitate to call for assistance from your local contact or directly from the Advanced Neutron Environment team.
