MERKUR®
The transport of cryogenic liquefied gases on public roads requires specially approved cryogenic containers.
The MERKUR® series is approved according to the Directive on Transportable Pressure Equipment (TPED) and the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road and the Regulation concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Rail (ADR/RID), TÜV-tested.
- Integrated level and pressure indicator
- Pressure build-up control
- Filling, liquid extraction valve
- Analysis valve
- Flush valve
- Vacuum and safety valve
- Overflow
- Crane eyelets and forklift pockets in longitudinal direction for easy transport to installation site
- Material: highly corrosion-resistant, low-temperature stainless steel
Convincing advantages:
- Robust construction made of highly corrosion resistant cold tough stainless steel
- Robust design: long service life through careful production and material selection
- Long-term stability of the insulation vacuum due to high-quality adsorption and getter materials
- Optimized super insulation, through multi-layer vacuum insulation and computer-optimized thermodynamic design
- Integrated vacuum sealing and safety device
- Quality control at every stage of production, e.g. through X-ray and helium leakage tests
- Easy and safe to mount on transport vehicles - thanks to optionally available installation slides and condensate tray
- Swagelok Analysis Coupling
