Our activities

Organigram

Helium refrigeration plants

We are responsible for the cryogenic plants that refrigerate our accelerators (XFEL, FLASH) and various test facilities.

Process controls

We design, build and operate the process controls for the helium refrigeration plants and the helium distribution system.

Design and construction of cryogenic components

We specify, design and build small and large cryogenic components (valve boxes, helium transfer lines, accelerator modules and test cryostats).

Design and engineering of helium cooling processes

We design and specify helium cooling processes for superconducting components.

Low temperature test facilities

We operate various test facilities (MTH, CMTB, AMTF) for testing components (e.g. superconducting magnets, high-frequency resonators and accelerator modules) at low temperatures (up to 2K).
