Status of the Series Fabrication of the Superconducting Magnet Packages for LIPAc Cryomodule
The last acceleration stage of the deuteron beam of the LIPAc linear accelerator is provided by eight superconducting cavities in a cryomodule (SRF Linac). Each cavity needs a magnet package, which consists of a solenoid for beam focusing and two vertical and horizontal dipole correctors for beam steering. The superconducting coils are fed by vapour cooled current leads. The beam position monitor is part of the magnet helium vessel. The series fabrication of eight sets of magnets and current leads has been performed by Elytt Energy, under CIEMAT follow-up. This paper describes the final design used for production, the main challenges addressed during fabrication, together with the quality control procedure, acceptance tests and qualification criteria to validate both the magnets and current leads. Currently some activities are being performed in the magnet helium vessels for improvement of surfaces for handling inside the clean room and reducing the risk of presence of particulate contaminations in the beam tube.
