Smokey Point Fill Expansion

Two NEW 6000 gallon Liquid Nitrogen and Liquid Argon vessels that we just set in place in front of the 13315 (Smokey Point Campus) building today, standing nicely next to the existing 50 ton CO2 vessel we installed about a year ago:

Bulk Installation: Laser Application

The Installation of a 5600L liquid nitrogen tank with vaporizer powers, installed by Chris King, Nate Kelsey & Paul Feeney, system engineering specialists from our Central Cryogenics division.
A CENTRA-PAD was installed as the foundation for the 5,500 Liter MB tank to support a new Mitsubishi laser application, purchased to eliminate the bottle neck they were facing with lead times on their cut parts. CENTRA-PAD portable pads streamline the infrastructure to minimize the installation cost.

Vancouver WA: 50-ton Vertical CO2 Receiver Installation

We’re excited to get this up, installed and in service, primarily to support our BevCarb (bulk CO2) deliveries and CO2 squirt trucks serving the Kelso, Vancouver, Portland and Albany territories. We’ve outgrown the 14 ton receiver in Portland that’s been the primary source in that region. Keeping up with local business growth in the area required multiple deliveries per week to meet the needs of our customers.

From these large storage tanks, products are typically delivered directly to customers in insulated cryogenic trucks. Most are transport by road, but we also transport by rail, ISO container, or boat.

Products are stored in liquid phase at different temperatures and pressures depending on the gas: about –190° C and atmospheric pressure for air gases; -20° C and 20 bars for Carbon Dioxide.

1 - Liquefied gases are stored at ultra-cold temperatures in a vacuum insulated tank. Controls on the tank keep the pressure of the liquid at optimum levels to assure proper liquid delivery to the application.

2 - Vacuum insulated piping connects the tank’s liquid withdrawal to the application equipment. The piping is the foundation for the system’s heat-loss efficiency and long-term integrity. It must be engineered to work with the associated controls and accessories.

3. A customized configuration of gas equipment controls and provides gas to other applications within the facility. Our Gas Specialists help to provide proper sizing for vaporizers, control manifolds, etc. to serve both a liquid and gas application from a single bulk tank liquid source.

4. The application equipment is designed to utilize liquid or gas at specific properties. The system design must take careful consideration of these requirements so the equipment meets the user’s performance specifications
