LCO₂ Filling Station

 

CRYO-TECH LCO₂ Filling Station


Product Overview
CRYO-TECH’s LCO₂ Filling Station is a specialized system designed for safe and efficient filling of liquid carbon dioxide (LCO₂) into cylinders, tanks, or process lines. Integrating cryogenic storage, high-pressure pumping, and vaporization technologies, this station supports applications in food & beverage, firefighting, welding, and industrial gas supply.

Key Features


  1. High-Pressure Filling:
    • Capable of 15–30 MPa pressure for rapid cylinder charging.
  2. Precision Control:
    • Electronic scales with auto-shutoff ensure ±0.5 kg filling accuracy.
  3. Energy-Efficient Vaporization:
    • Ambient/electric vaporizers for 50–5,000 Nm³/H gasification capacity.
  4. Cryogenic Storage:
    • Vacuum-insulated tanks (5–200 m³) with ≤0.1% daily evaporation rate.
  5. Safety Compliance:
    • Emergency shutdown systems, pressure relief valves, and explosion-proof components.
  6. Modular Design:
    • Skid-mounted structure for quick installation and space optimization.
