More Than a Delivery — A Complete MRI Helium Service

Most helium suppliers just drop off a dewar. HeliStream® is different — our trained cryogenic technicians perform the complete on-site transfer to your MRI or NMR magnet. We handle the entire process so your team can focus on patients, not cryogenics.

01 · Pre-Chilled Dewars

Our 250L and 500L dewars arrive pre-chilled and pre-purged. Zero warm-up cycle needed at the MRI site — saving you time and minimizing helium boil-off during transfer.

02 · Low-Loss Transfer

Pre-purged transfer lines with fast connection. Reduced venting, no pressure spike to the superconducting magnet. Our process minimizes helium loss during every fill.

03 · On-Site Technician

Our trained cryogenic technicians perform the complete fill. You don't need in-house expertise — WSM handles the entire transfer process safely and efficiently.

04 · Scheduled Refill Programs

Never worry about running low. WSM sets up periodic fill schedules based on your magnet's consumption rate. We track your helium levels and coordinate refills proactively — so you avoid costly emergency situations.

Where HeliStream® Helium Is Mission-Critical

Helium's extremely low boiling point (-269°C / -452°F) makes it indispensable for applications requiring cryogenic cooling that no other substance can achieve.

MRI Magnet Cooling

Liquid helium maintains the superconducting state of MRI magnets at 4.2K (−269°C). Essential for hospitals, imaging centers, and mobile MRI units. Magnet capacities vary between 300 and 2,300 liters, requiring periodic refills to maintain optimal helium levels.

NMR Spectroscopy

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectrometers require liquid helium for superconducting magnet operation. Critical for pharmaceutical research, university chemistry departments, and materials science laboratories worldwide.

Aerospace & Cryogenics

Rocket fuel pressurization, satellite testing, superconductor research, particle physics experiments, and quantum computing systems — all require ultra-pure helium supply at cryogenic temperatures.

Semiconductor & Quantum

Cooling for quantum computing dilution refrigerators, semiconductor epitaxial growth chambers, and advanced materials research. Every 1 MW of quantum processing requires approximately 12,000 liters of helium annually.

Helium Delivery Across United States Nationwide

HeliStream® delivers liquid helium to all 50 states from our strategic hubs. Ground freight for scheduled and emergency MRI fills — door-to-hospital service nationwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size liquid helium dewars are available?

HeliStream® supplies pre-chilled dewars in 250-liter and 500-liter capacities, as well as larger ISO container shipments for high-volume customers. All dewars are super-insulated and pre-purged to minimize boil-off during transport and transfer.

Does WSM provide on-site MRI helium fill service?

Yes. HeliStream® includes complete on-site helium transfer performed by trained cryogenic technicians. We handle the entire process — connection, transfer, and verification — so your facility doesn't need specialized in-house expertise. This is available across all 50 U.S. states and Latin America.

How quickly can WSM deliver helium in an emergency?

We offer both scheduled and emergency helium delivery for MRI facilities. For emergency fills in the continental United States, we can arrange rapid deployment via our air and ground freight network. Contact our team 24/7 at (305) 455-1220 for urgent situations.

Does WSM deliver helium to Latin America?

Yes. WSM exports helium from our Miami hub to Venezuela, Colombia, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, and throughout Central and South America. We handle all HAZMAT compliance (49 CFR, IMDG, IATA), customs documentation, and last-mile logistics for international deliveries.

How much does an MRI helium refill cost?

The cost of an MRI helium refill varies based on magnet type (capacities range from 300L to 2,300L), current helium level, delivery location, and market conditions. Helium is a commodity and pricing fluctuates. WSM provides custom quotes within 24 hours — call (305) 455-1220 or request a quote online. Facilities with HeliStream® service agreements benefit from stable, preferred pricing.

Does WSM offer scheduled MRI helium refill programs?

Yes. WSM sets up periodic refill schedules based on your magnet's helium consumption rate. We track levels and coordinate fills proactively so you never run critically low. Scheduled programs also provide more stable pricing compared to emergency or spot-market fills. Contact us to set up a refill program tailored to your facility.

Can HeliStream® serve both gas and liquid helium needs?

Yes. HeliStream® provides helium in whatever form your system requires — liquid helium for MRI magnet cooling or gaseous helium for other applications. Our team assesses your specific system needs and delivers the optimal solution. The brand represents WSM's complete helium service, not a single product form.
