Nitrogen Cylinder is used for blanketing and purging applications to displace or dilute all unwanted gas or vapour.

Widely used for reasons of safety and the prevention of product degradation in the chemicals and petroleum industry:

Inerting reactors and storage tanks

Purging vessels and pipelines

Sparging

Pressure-transfer of liquids

Shielding or assist gas for plasma-cutting aluminium and stainless steel, and as an assist gas for laser-cutting stainless steel TIG-welding of tough-pitch copper

Heat-treatment processes to protect some of the most reactive metals

In electrochemical analysis, can be bubbled through to displace any oxygen

Pressure-transfer, where the movement of liquids or slurries from one piece of process plant to another is effected using gas pressure

Tyre inflation: Nitrogen Cylinder helps to extend tyre life and prevent tyre bursts

Pressurising accumulators for batch-testing applications

Nitrogen Cylinder Can be used for shrink-fitting. The intense cold of liquid nitrogen (-196°C) reduces the physical dimensions of a component placed in the liquid. Once cooled, the component is connected to a mating component before swelling to its original size as it reaches room temperature, thereby securing itself in place.
