Dear Phys Chem colleagues,
We are disposing of a 200 MHz solid-state NMR system. As the
electronics are in poor state and there is little demand for NMR at such
modest frequencies these days, we don't anticipate any interest from the
NMR community but wondered whether others could find creative uses for a
trouble-free 4.7 T superconducting magnet.
A few practical details:
Bore: vertical, 73 mm including room temperature shim set (required for
sub ppm field homogeneity over the "sweet spot"). If such high field
homogeneity is not required, taking out the shim set leaves an 89 mm bore.
Weight (empty): 334 kg
Width: ~800 mm
Height (incl cryogen fill ports): 1420 mm
Min ceiling height (normal configuration): ~3 m
Cryogens: liquid He (~45 l every 6 months), liquid N2 (~35 l weekly)
Run down and up costs (excl. transportation, cryogens): ~3000 GBP

More details available on request. Bidders offering cash would be
welcome, of course, but our main interest is avoiding junking a
perfectly functional magnet (if only for sentimental reasons).
Please send any expressions of interest by the end of month to ensure
fair and equal consideration.
