Liquid Cylinders


 L Series - Liquid Withdrawal - Low Pressure
 XL-160 and XL-240
Liquid Nitrogen or Liquid Oxygen

The XL-160 and XL-240 are transportable units built to rugged construction standards.  They are specifically designed for the low pressure requirements of liquid Nitrogen filling, storing and dispensing and feature easy, quick liquid withdrawal.

The XL-160 is intended for moderate usage applications.  A full circle shock-mount base ring is standard.

The XL-240 is easily maneuvered on a five-caster round base or four caster square base.  A pressure building circuit that provides high withdrawal rates is standard on this model.  The XL-240 is available in 50 psig and 100 psig (3.4 bar and 6.9 bar) for oxygen service.  (MRI version available).
