The storage cycle of cryogenic containers is affected by a variety of factors, so it is difficult to give a fixed storage cycle. However, based on publicly available information, we can summarize the following key points:
Container types and specifications
The storage cycle of different types of cryogenic containers may vary. For example, some specific types of liquid nitrogen cryogenic storage tanks can have a normal storage cycle of up to 95 days. Please note, however, that this is only a specific example and is not representative of the storage cycle of all cryogenic containers.
Conditions of use and operation
The storage cycle of cryogenic containers is also affected by the conditions of use and the mode of operation. For example, the number and frequency of tank openings can affect the amount of liquid nitrogen stored and thus indirectly the storage cycle. In addition, the non-destructive storage time of the container can also be affected by many factors such as filling rate, heat leakage, and working pressure.
Maintenance & Maintenance:
Proper maintenance and upkeep are equally important. When the newly purchased cryogenic storage tank adds liquid nitrogen for the first time, it may volatilize quickly due to the high internal temperature of the tank and the low temperature of the liquid nitrogen. Therefore, proper use and maintenance methods are essential to extend the storage cycle of cryogenic containers.
In summary, the storage cycle of cryogenic containers is not a fixed value, but is affected by many factors such as container type, use conditions, operation methods, and maintenance. Therefore, in practical use, it is recommended to evaluate and adjust it on a case-by-case basis.
In addition, although it is not directly mentioned in the question, it is worth noting that the service life of cryogenic storage tanks is generally about 20 years. This service life is related to a number of factors such as the appearance of the tank, the material, the manufacturing process, and the operating environment. When cryogenic storage tanks reach the end of their useful life, they should be scrapped or fully inspected to ensure safety.
