Cryogenic Microbulk Tank

Cryogenic microbulk tank for oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and CO2 storage

Safe and Efficient Compact Liquefied Gas Storage

DSW is a cryogenic microbulk tank manufacturer, offering compact, vacuum-insulated storage systems for the safe, efficient, and reliable supply of liquefied gases, including oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and carbon dioxide. Cryogenic microbulk tanks provide a continuous gas supply with minimal product loss, making them a practical alternative to traditional gas cylinders for industrial, medical, laboratory, and food processing applications. These tanks are engineered to maintain stable pressure, reduce boil-off, and ensure consistent delivery of cryogenic gases.

Types of Cryogenic Microbulk Tanks

Cryogenic microbulk tanks are specialized cryogenic storage vessels classified by operating pressure, capacity, gas type, and system configuration. For a broader overview of cryogenic tank design, types, components, and applications, see our cryogenic tanks guide.

Microbulk Tank Type	Typical Range	Typical Applications	Key Features
Low-Pressure Microbulk Tanks (CO₂ microbulk tank, low-pressure gas system)	≤ 1.6 MPa	Food processing, beverage CO₂ systems, laboratories	Stable low-pressure supply, efficient phase control
Medium-Pressure Microbulk Tanks (industrial gas microbulk tank)	≈ 2.0–2.5 MPa	General industrial gas supply, fabrication, manufacturing	Balanced pressure and flow, reduced need for boosters
High-Pressure Microbulk Tanks (high-pressure cryogenic tank)	Up to 3.4 MPa	High-demand industrial processes, laser cutting	High outlet pressure, minimizes external compression
Liquid Nitrogen Microbulk Tanks (LN₂ microbulk tank, liquid nitrogen storage)	1–5 m³	Food freezing, electronics, cryogenic cooling	Low boil-off, stable nitrogen supply, high efficiency
Liquid Oxygen Microbulk Tanks (LOX microbulk tank)	1–5 m³	Medical oxygen systems, steelmaking	Oxygen-clean design, high safety standards
Liquid Argon Microbulk Tanks (argon microbulk tank)	1–5 m³	Welding, metal fabrication, shielding gas supply	High purity retention, stable delivery
Integrated Microbulk Systems (microbulk gas supply system)	Custom	Automated industrial gas supply	Built-in vaporizers, pressure-building, control systems

Microbulk Tank Design and Features

Cryogenic microbulk tanks use vacuum-insulated construction to reduce heat transfer and maintain efficient storage of liquefied gases. Depending on the application, systems can be configured with pressure-building, vaporization, pressure regulation, monitoring, and safety components.

Vacuum Insulation – Helps reduce heat transfer and product loss.
Pressure Control – Supports stable and reliable gas delivery.
Integrated Components – Vaporizers, valves, regulators, and monitoring equipment can be configured to suit the application.
Application-Specific Design – Tank capacity, pressure, gas type, and configuration can be selected according to site requirements.

Applications / Use Cases

Industrial – Welding, metal fabrication, and inert gas purging
Medical & Healthcare – Continuous supply of oxygen and other medical gases
Laboratories & Research – Reliable gas delivery for experiments and analytical instruments
