Helium refrigerator
An improved helium refrigerator of the type which includes a plurality of counter-flow heat exchangers and has a maximum reserve cooling capacity when the final or low-temperature heat exchanger is substantially filled with liquid helium, and a minimum reserve cooling capacity when the low-temperature heat exchanger is substantially filled with gas. An electrical bridge circuit including a pair of temperature responsive resistors is mounted on the low-temperature heat exchanger for providing a continuous indication of the reserve cooling capacity of the refrigerator.
