HANDLING LIQUID NITROGEN: STORING IT SAFELY IN A LIQUID NITROGEN CONTAINER
Nitrogen can be stored in both gaseous & liquid form. Liquid nitrogen is extremely low in temperature and direct contact can burn the skin. It is necessary to ensure that safety precautions are undertaken to avoid damages to the surroundings & the people working with it. Ensuring safety with liquid cylinders Liquid nitrogen must be stored in a liquid nitrogen container which has proper insulation & vacuum to handle the liquid. They are completely safe micro cylinders for transporting liquid nitrogen conveniently from one place to another. The liquid cylinders can resist heavy impact & are designed to combat high-temperature conditions. To monitor the pressure, safety valves are integrated with the liquid cylinders that can be controlled easily. Relief valves & regulators are also installed to monitor the conditions inside the container. Safety measures while handling liquid & micro cylinders Even though nitrogen is harmful in nat
