  • Metal bellows stem sealing
  • Long cold-box extension
  • Manual cold-line isolation
ARD-GL-016 engineering requirements
Engineering dataConfiguration requirement
Process dutySpecify LH2 phase, design temperature, pressure, flow and differential pressure.
Selected assemblyConfirm insulation interface, materials, leakage acceptance and project test documentation.

Series data guide enquiry and are not verified availability or approved operating limits for every size, pressure and execution. Confirm the selected LH2 configuration and pressure-temperature rating.

Published size bands are separate pressure-dependent selections. Confirm allowable differential pressure and operating pressure at the selected temperature.

Published ratings do not establish suitability for every listed medium. Oxygen cleaning, material compatibility, trapped-liquid relief and project approvals are specified for the selected assembly. Liquid-hydrogen and helium service require a separate temperature and material review.
