Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has a method to determine how much compressed
gas their TMC antivibration legs consume? I was envisaging putting some
kind of splice into the airlines leading into each leg them with a
flowmeter and valve to cut flow to the flowmeter when raising and lowering
the magnet...
As I understand their operation, as long as the compressed gas going into
them is ca 20psi higher than the value required to keep the magnet
floating, there is very little actual consumption of the gas. Assuming no
leaks.
I need to both check for leaks, and also determine how long a standard
compressed nitrogen cylinder would keep the magnet up.
Thanks for any suggestions/experience,
Tara
