Helium Liquefication Plant VL100

Liquefication

Construction of a VL100 helium liquefier, 20 L/h without LN2 pre-cooling, at the University of Leeds.

Neubau einer Heliumanlage

  • Design, manufacturing, assembly, and installation of a new helium liquefier with gas-bearing expansion turbines.
  • Delivery of a Helium Liquefication Plant
    • Cycle compressor, watercooled
    • Oil Remover System with Gas Management Panel
    • Coldbox incl. expansion turbines and freeze-out-purifier
    • Gas dryer
    • Process control technology (MSR)
    • Pure Gas Buffer 1x 4.000 l at 16 bar
  • High-purity gas piping within the building
  • Installation of all system components
  • Commissioning of the entire system
