Abstract
An abstract for a quench valve of a cryostat, in particular for use in a magnetic resonance imaging system, is attachable to the quench valve so as to raise the cracking pressure of the quench valve without changing the operability of the quench valve. Such an accessory device is usable to enable the cryostat, containing a cryogen, to be safely transported by air transportation.
