Summary
Within the last decades an uninterrupted increase in the use of liquid helium for laboratory applications was recorded. On the other hand increasing problems and excessive costs caused by incorrect use or lack of knowledge about helium specifics are reported. In this contribution a number of typical aspects are addressed, like commercial supply of liquid helium vs. operation of an own liquefier, the use of helium dewar vessels and balancing of helium amounts, usual causes for leakage and for contamination as well as special features of helium recovery systems.
