K2 - K2 Nitrogen Vessel

Applications & Use Cases

• Cryopreservation of biological samples such as cells, tissues, and genetic material in research and clinical settings.
• Storage of pharmaceutical compounds and reagents requiring ultra-low temperatures to maintain stability.
• Use in IVF clinics and biobanks for long-term preservation of embryos, oocytes, and sperm.
• Application in materials science for low-temperature experiments and sample storage.

Typical Specifications

Typical capacity

For this class of equipment, capacities commonly range from 10 litres to over 50 litres, depending on the model and intended use.

Power supply

Nitrogen vessels are typically passive cryogenic storage systems and do not require an electrical power supply for temperature maintenance.

Temperature range

Units of this type maintain cryogenic temperatures, typically around -196°C, the boiling point of liquid nitrogen.

Material construction

Commonly constructed from high-grade aluminium or stainless steel, with a vacuum-insulated design for thermal efficiency.

Neck opening diameter

The neck opening diameter typically varies, influencing the size of canisters or racks that can be accommodated.

Evaporation rate

For this class of equipment, the static evaporation rate is a key performance indicator, typically measured in litres per day.
