Praxair has introduced a new, patented remote monitoring system developed for worldwide monitoring of cryogenic containers.
The patented monitoring system will detect liquid level, temperature and pressure data in both the insulating layer of nitrogen and helium inner vessel to ensure optimal cryogenic properties during shipment. This new technology allows remote readout and potential control of the containers arrival conditions during various stages of the transport process. It directly benefits customers because it ensures reliability at the end of the delivery process.
“We are now monitoring our high-value helium containers during worldwide transport, utilizing Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates that verify timely shipments and improve container utilization,” said Tom Bulin, global helium supply manager.
“This one-of-a-kind system also gives us flexibility to monitor and proactively control helium product while in transit, increasing reliability of supply and proper helium arrival conditions for our customers.”
