Choosing the right cryogenic valve comes down to a handful of considerations, each of which narrows the choices so that you find the right valve for your application. Because cryogenic liquids (nitrogen, oxygen, helium and hydrogen) are stored at extremely low temperatures (typically -150C / -238F or lower), you need valves designed to function properly at those low temperatures. Below are the top considerations for choosing a valve:

Hose choices abound in the world of specialty gasses, which can make it hard to select the best option. With that in mind, here’s a quick primer on things to consider when choosing a hose that will best suit your needs and perform reliably over time.

A question we sometimes get into our customer service center is whether or not our Arctic Fox micro bulk tanks can be serviced by Orca fill trucks, especially in tight, urban settings that traditional bulk supply tankers simply can’t maneuver. The answer is a resounding yes!

Ratermann has built a strong reputation of being the reliable solutions provider for a wide range of cryogenic and compressed gas applications, and a lot of those solutions are driven directly by input from our customers.

Flow rate and pressure are constant concerns with cryogenics. When the demand for gas outpaces the output of the liquid cylinder, both pressure and flow rates will drop accordingly. This is when a vaporizer can save the day.

Ratermann is excited to announce two new sizes of the Arctic Fox microbulk tanks: 7500L and 8100L! The new sizes round out our full Arctic Fox mini and microbulk offering from 1500L to 8100L, covering a wide range of needs and applications.
