TECHNICAL FAQs

About Liquid Oxygen Tanks

What capacities are available for LOX storage tanks?

LOX storage tanks are available in various capacities ranging from small medical oxygen systems to large industrial bulk storage tanks. Custom capacities can be engineered according to project requirements.

What materials are used in LOX cryogenic tanks?

Most LOX tanks feature a stainless steel inner vessel (304 or 316L) for cryogenic service and a carbon steel outer shell with protective coating for durability and corrosion resistance.

How does vacuum insulation improve tank performance?

Vacuum insulation combined with multilayer insulation significantly reduces heat ingress, resulting in lower boil-off rates, improved storage efficiency, and longer holding times.

What safety features are included in LOX storage tanks?

LOX tanks typically include pressure relief valves, burst discs, oxygen-compatible piping systems, pressure monitoring devices, and emergency safety controls to ensure safe operation.

Which international standards can LOX tanks comply with?

Depending on project requirements, LOX tanks can be designed and manufactured according to ASME, CE/PED, EN13458, TPED, and other applicable international standards.

Can LOX cryogenic tanks be customized?

Yes. Tank capacity, design pressure, operating pressure, orientation (vertical or horizontal), instrumentation, and piping configurations can be customized to suit specific applications.

What testing is performed before delivery?

LOX tanks typically undergo hydrostatic testing, helium leak testing, vacuum integrity testing, non-destructive testing (NDT), and quality inspections before shipment.

Can LOX tanks be supplied with vaporizers and control systems?

Yes. Complete LOX storage systems can be supplied with ambient air vaporizers, pressure-building systems, regulators, instrumentation, and control panels as required by the application.
