During the transportation of cryogenic containers, the following points need to be paid attention to ensure the safety and effectiveness of transportation:
Packing & Fixing
Cryogenic containers must be properly packaged to prevent physical damage during transportation.
Use appropriate fixtures, such as straps or brackets, to secure the container to the transport vehicle to prevent it from slipping or tipping during travel.
Temperature Control
Monitoring and controlling the temperature of cryogenic containers is key. Ensure that the temperature inside the container is maintained within the specified range throughout the shipping process to protect the quality of its contents.
If necessary, a dedicated refrigerated vehicle or equipment can be used to maintain the proper temperature.
Leak Prevention
Before shipping, check the tightness and integrity of cryogenic containers to ensure there is no risk of leakage.
If necessary, place leak-proof materials such as oil absorbent pads or plastic film around the container to deal with possible leaks.
Safe Operation
Transportation personnel should receive appropriate training on the operational requirements and safety precautions of cryogenic containers.
During loading and unloading, follow proper operating procedures to avoid damage to the container caused by the use of improper tools or methods.
Compliance
Comply with national and local regulations and regulations on the transportation of cryogenic containers, and ensure that transportation activities meet legal requirements.
Understand and comply with the special regulations on the transport of dangerous goods to ensure the safety of cryogenic containers during transportation.
Emergency Preparedness
Prepare emergency plans to deal with possible unexpected situations such as leaks, fires, etc.
Ensure that transport vehicles are equipped with the necessary emergency equipment and tools, such as fire extinguishers, first aid kits, etc.
Recording & Tracking
Record the transportation process of cryogenic containers, including the starting place, destination, transportation time, temperature records, etc.
Use tracking systems or technologies to monitor the location and status of cryogenic containers in real-time to ensure a safe and reliable transportation process.
Communicating with the Recipient
Communicate with the receiver prior to shipping to ensure they understand the arrival times and special requirements of the cryogenic container.
Provide the necessary shipping documents and records to the receiver so that they can verify the condition and temperature of the container.
Following these precautions will help ensure the safety and effectiveness of cryogenic containers during transportation, protecting the quality of container contents and reducing risk.
