A cryogenic valve for hydrogen applications
Liquefied gases, such as hydrogen, are generated, transported and stored at cryogenic temperatures near absolute zero. Such temperatures call for specially engineered valves capable of resisting these conditions. The Type 3248 Cryogenic Valve (photo) is such a valve. All wetted valve parts are made of materials with defined alloy compositions. They withstand the extremely low temperatures, showing no signs of impaired strength and viscosity even after longer periods of controlling the process medium. — Samson AG, Frankfurt am Main, Germany
