GE MRI F-50H Helium Compressor Unit by Sumitomo: P/N – 5197842

The Sumitomo F-50H (P/N 5197842) is a water-cooled helium compressor unit and a key component in the cryogenic cooling systems of various GE MRI machines. This model, a successor to the CSW-71D, features an enhanced oil separator that dramatically extends adsorber life and increases the maintenance interval to a remarkable 30,000 hours, significantly reducing operational costs and downtime. The compressor’s primary function is to supply high-pressure, pure, oil-free helium gas to the cold head, enabling it to re-liquefy the helium and maintain the superconducting state of the MRI magnet. The F-50H is a robust and reliable engine for your MRI’s cryogenic system and is compatible with a range of Sumitomo cold heads, including the RDK-408A2, RDK-408A3, and RDE-412A4.
