K2 Nitrogen Vessel

• Cryogenic storage of biological samples in laboratory settings.
• Long-term preservation of genetic material in research facilities.
• Storage of cell lines and tissue samples in biotechnology.
• Use in pharmaceutical R&D for drug discovery and development.

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 10 litres to over 100 litres of liquid nitrogen.

Power supply

Most passive liquid nitrogen vessels do not require an electrical power supply for operation, relying on vacuum insulation.

Material construction

Units are typically constructed from high-grade aluminium or stainless steel for cryogenic integrity.

Insulation

Commonly features high-vacuum multi-layer insulation to minimise liquid nitrogen evaporation.

Sample storage format

Designed to accommodate standard cryoboxes, cryovials, or blood bags, often within racks or canisters.

Temperature range

Maintains cryogenic temperatures, typically around -196°C in the liquid phase.

• What is the typical hold time for a liquid nitrogen vessel?

  Hold time varies significantly based on the vessel's capacity, insulation quality, and usage frequency. Buyers should consult the seller for specific hold time data for this unit.

• Does this unit require regular maintenance?

• What safety precautions are necessary when operating a liquid nitrogen vessel?

• Can this vessel be used for vapour phase storage?

• Is a liquid nitrogen level monitoring system included or available?

Liquid nitrogen storage systems are valued for reliable long-term sample preservation in research and pharmaceutical settings. Buyers typically prioritise checking insulation condition, vapour loss rates, and maintenance history when purchasing used units. Industry sentiment emphasises the importance of verifying calibration records and safety certifications before installation. Common strengths include robust construction and compatibility with existing laboratory infrastructure. Capacity requirements and storage location should guide selection, as should supplier support for ongoing servicing and spare parts availability.
