Liquid Nitrogen Sample Storage (LN₂) Liquid Nitrogen Supply Tanks
Liquid nitrogen storage tanks (LN2) are used for the stationary or mobile supply of cryogenic nitrogen in laboratories, clinics, and research facilities. These containers enable the manual or automatic refilling of sample storage containers and cryogenic systems. Specialized withdrawal devices ensure a controlled transfer of the medium for cryopreservation.

Use of LN2 storage tanks in cryotechnology
In biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and medicine, the uninterrupted supply of liquid nitrogen is essential for the integrity of biological samples. An LN2 storage tank acts as a central supply unit. The containers are designed to keep evaporation rates low through vacuum-insulated walls while allowing easy withdrawal for daily needs.
Technical features and equipment
The range includes storage containers with volumes from 100 liters, 200 liters, 300 liters up to 500 liters. Standard equipment usually includes a withdrawal manifold, a transfer hose, and a hand ring for safe maneuverability. An integrated caster base ensures mobility within laboratory rooms, allowing various withdrawal points to be reached flexibly.
Manual and automatic refilling
The LN2 storage tanks are designed for different process requirements. They support both the manual filling of smaller dewar vessels and the automatic replenishment of large sample storage tanks. For models such as the 300-liter container, an operating pressure of 1.5 bar is specified, ensuring a stable transfer flow of the liquid nitrogen via the withdrawal lines.
Frequently asked questions about liquid nitrogen storage tanks
Here you will find answers to technical and application-related questions regarding the storage of liquid nitrogen.
What is a liquid nitrogen storage tank used for?
These tanks are used for storing liquid nitrogen (LN2) and are primarily used to manually or automatically refill other cryogenic containers or sample storage systems.
What tank sizes are available for LN2 storage?
The range includes various capacities, including compact units with 100 liters as well as larger variants with 200, 300, or 500 liters capacity.
What operating pressure is relevant for LN2 withdrawal?
A certain operating pressure is necessary for the transfer of liquid nitrogen; common storage containers work, for example, with an operating pressure of 1.5 bar.
What is the difference between storage tanks and sample storage tanks?
Storage tanks are optimized for the pure supply and transfer of LN2, while sample storage tanks have special holders for cryoboxes or canisters for long-term sample archiving.
What accessories are required for operating the storage tanks?
Important components include withdrawal manifolds, flexible transfer hoses, and caster bases to safely move the heavy tank within the laboratory.
How do I choose the right storage tank?
The choice depends on the daily nitrogen requirement of the connected systems and the available floor space. Professional advice helps to match the volume to the refill cycles.
How is safety ensured when handling the tanks?
The use of hand rings and stable caster bases minimizes the risk during transport. In addition, withdrawal manifolds manage the pressure and flow of the cryogenic medium in a controlled manner.
