2 PagesRTD Sensor Ensures Cold Storage to -200°C Conax helps engineer a custom sensor design that can withstand liquid motion forces inside cold storage tanks to ensure accurate monitoring. Company: Liquid and Liquified Gas Storage Tank Manufacturer Challenge: The customer has three tank monitoring challenges for internal temperatures to -200° C in large liquid ammonia, liquid nitrogen, liquid oxygen and liquified natural gas (LNG) storage tanks: 1. The tank is filled with liquid nitrogen to pre-cool the tank structure prior to filling with the final product. This prevents rapid cool-down and possible structural damage. Sensors are installed in the insulation-filled annulus area of the double-walled storage tanks. 2. Sensors are installed in the bottom of the insulation-filled annulus area of the
