A SYSTEM IS DESCRIBED IN WHICH A FRACTION OF THE HELIUM GAS BEING RECOVERED FROM A GROUP OF CRYOSTATS IS PUMPED THROUGH A TEST CELL AND RETURNED TO THE RECOVERY SYSTEM. THE MONITOR DEVICE RESPONDS WITHIN A FEW SECONDS AND ITS OUTPUT IS USED TO OPERATE SOLENOID VALVES THAT PREVENT DIRTY GAS FROM CONTAMINATING THE RECOMPRESSED HELIUM STORE.
