How to handle tip-over of liquid nitrogen tank
2024-07-25 10:55

Liquid nitrogen tanks have a variety of uses, and their types and models are also different. There are aviation liquid nitrogen tanks, livestock liquid nitrogen tanks, and transport liquid nitrogen tanks, etc. Whether in transportation or use, they should be kept in a vertical state. What should we do if we accidentally knock over the liquid nitrogen tank?

Don't panic if the liquid nitrogen container falls over. Ensure your own safety before handling it. First, observe the surrounding environment. If there is a fire source, immediately move the liquid nitrogen tank to a cool, ventilated place away from the fire source to reduce safety risks. Then check whether the structure of the liquid nitrogen tank is intact, whether there are large dents and cracks on the tank body, and check the sealing parts such as the bottle stopper and lock cover. If there is a problem, immediately contact the manufacturer and relevant technicians for inquiry and subsequent maintenance.

Personal safety is also important. The temperature range of liquid nitrogen is -196℃. Direct contact can cause frostbite. If liquid nitrogen flows out, do not touch the liquid nitrogen directly. Also, pay attention to the nitrogen gas volatilized by liquid nitrogen. The accumulation of a large amount of nitrogen in a confined space will create a risk of suffocation. Open the windows first for ventilation.
