What happens when an MRI machine overheats?

When an MRI overheats, image quality drops, scans may stop mid-process, and the system can automatically shut down to protect its superconducting magnets and electronics.

What is the working principle of an MRI chiller?

An MRI chiller removes excess heat from the magnet, gradient coils, and electronics using a closed-loop cooling system that circulates temperature-controlled coolant to maintain stable operation.

How often should an MRI chiller be maintained?

Typically every 3–6 months, depending on usage and environment. Regular checks include coolant level, filters, pumps, and temperature control accuracy.

Is the maintenance of the chiller included in the service contract for the MRI machine?

In many cases, yes—but not always. Some contracts cover chiller maintenance, while others require a separate service agreement with the cooling system provider.
