Abstract
An NMR apparatus includes a superconducting magnet assembly, a cryostat having a vacuum vessel, a refrigeration stage that can be operated at a temperature of <100 K, and a magnet coil system that comprises a cold bore into which a room temperature access of the cryostat engages. The NMR apparatus also includes an NMR probe with probe components cooled to an operating temperature of <100 K. The probe components are arranged between the cold bore and the room temperature access into the cold bore, radially inside the cold bore but outside the room temperature access. The vacuum vessel includes an opening that can be closed by a lock valve. A lock chamber is directly connected to the opening, such that the cooled probe components can be installed and/or removed through the opening and lock valve without breaking the vacuum in the vacuum vessel of the cryostat.
