APPENDIX D. LIQUID NITROGEN COOLING

 

 

WARNING

: VACGEN cannot advise on the safe use and handling of liquid gases which is entirely the 

responsibility of the user. The use of liquid nitrogen in confined spaces can be extremely dangerous 
as  nitrogen  gas  levels  can  build  up  rapidly.  Ensure  that  the  area  is  well  ventilated.  Always  wear 
insulated gloves and safety goggles when handling liquid gases and surfaces that may be cold.
