	We present a non-destructive superconducting monitoring system for charged particles beams. The system uses the Cryogenic Current Comparator (CCC) principle with a low temperature DC-SQUID. The Cryogenic Current Comparator has shown its capability in the Horizontal Bi-Cavity Test Facility at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin under noisy conditions. In this test facility for superconducting cavities the CCC setup was able to detect dark currents in the nA range. The suitability of the Cryogenic Current Comparator as a beam monitor for the Facility of Antiproton and Ion Research at GSI Darmstadt as well as for the Cryogenic Storage Ring at MPI Heidelberg will be pointed out and discussed. Special attention will be given to the ferromagnetic core materials embedded in the pickup coil.
