  In view of the planned coverage of the FAIR-SIS100 synchrotron with beam loss monitors (BLMs), FLUKA studies were performed aiming at two goals: i) evaluation of the sensitivity of the LHC-IC type detectors to the potential beam losses at SIS100; ii) estimation of the BLM quench prevention threshold via the correlation between the energy deposition inside the superconducting coils and the BLM active volume. A full spectrum of ion species and energies to be accelerated with SIS100 were considered in the simulations, showing a great sensitivity to the beam losses. An interesting finding of this study was that, for the same beam loss location, the quench prevention thresholds were almost identical for all ion species/energies including protons.
