BluNet vertical LAr cryogenic storage tanks are designed for industrial applications requiring reliable liquid argon storage. Their double-wall construction combines an inner vessel with an outer shell, using vacuum and perlite insulation to help reduce heat transfer and liquid boil-off. Explore our cryogenic storage tanks for industrial gas storage requirements. Contact BluNet for tank specifications and a quotation tailored to your project.
Tank Design and Vacuum Insulation
A vertical LAr cryogenic tank features a double-wall structure consisting of an inner vessel and an outer shell. The inner vessel is typically made of 304L stainless steel, while the outer shell is generally constructed from carbon steel, subject to the selected model’s specifications.
The space between the vessels uses perlite insulation and vacuum technology to reduce heat transfer and help minimize liquid argon boil-off. This insulation system supports the storage of liquid argon under the tank’s specified operating conditions.
Tank Construction and Design Standards
Tank materials, design pressure, fabrication procedures, inspection and certification depend on the selected model and destination market. EN 13458 may apply to qualifying vacuum-insulated cryogenic vessels. The applicable design code, edition and certification requirements should be confirmed for the specific tank.
Before purchasing a vertical liquid argon tank, buyers should verify the following requirements:
- Required liquid argon storage capacity
- Working pressure and design pressure
- Operating temperature and connection arrangements
- Installation space and site requirements
- Applicable standards, inspection records and certification
Liquid Argon Storage Applications
BluNet vertical LAr cryogenic storage tanks support industrial facilities and gas distributors requiring reliable bulk liquid argon storage for applications such as:
- Metal Fabrication and Welding: Supplying argon for TIG/MIG welding and metal fabrication processes.
- Steelmaking and Metallurgy: Supporting melt stirring, metal treatment and controlled-atmosphere processes.
- Industrial Gas Distribution: Providing bulk liquid argon storage for vaporization, gas distribution and customer supply.
- Electronics and Specialized Manufacturing: Storing argon for processes requiring controlled atmospheres and specified gas purity.
Tank Selection: Capacity, working pressure, storage autonomy, delivery frequency and downstream vaporizer requirements should be evaluated according to the project’s gas consumption and operating conditions.
