Wayne

The insulation used on the original PF1A coils [which are being planned for use on NCSX] was CTD-112P which is a cryogenic insulation produced by CTD corp.  The new PF1A coils were fabricated with the Fusa-Fab material which is not a cryogenic insulation.

Wayne,

If all else fails, I’d suggest that you call Dick Reed or Paul Fabian.  I’m pretty sure one of them can give you the answer.

Phil

Jim and Charlie,

 

I am trying to establish whether glass-epoxy system used in the PF1A coils was ever qualified for cryogenic service.  The current supplier (Von Roll / Isola) was not familiar with any testing.  In fact, he says that Fusa Fab uses a polyester resin whereas Fusa Flex uses an epoxy resin.  Do you folks have any data on this issue?

 

Wayne

Hello Mr. Reiersen, 

You have reached the correct supplier.  Fusa Fab is our trademark for some B Stage polyester resin treated glass fabrics.  We also produce a tape called Fusa Flex which is a modified epoxy B Stage on a woven glass/polyester.  I am not familiar with any testing of those items at that temperature but can check our files.  If you have any other questions or would like to discuss feel free to email direct or call at 518 344-7143. 

Thanks, 
Tom

Comment     Some years ago, we built some coils using a B-staged epoxy-glass tape called Fusa-Fab which we bought from either you or GE.  (I believe you no have the rights to the product line).  We want to use those coils in a cryogenic (80K) environment and wondered if the insulation system had ever been qualified for cryogenic service.  Can you help?
