For Cost-Efficient Transfer of Cryogens

Technifab has extensive experience in manufacturing vacuum jacketed pipe, both rigid and bendable.  We will design and manufacture cryogenic pipe systems to your exacting requirements.  Our static vacuum insulated pipe systems are individually sealed, section by section, inspected and leak checked in the factory to ensure a long, trouble-free life.

Advantages of Technifab Vacuum Jacketed Systems with Bayonet Connections

• Minimize cryogen loss
• Require no maintenance
• Longer, trouble-free service life
• Easier to install than foam insulated copper pipe
• Easier to expand or reroute

Applications

Rigid and bendable Technifab vacuum jacketed pipe is used in a variety of applications:

• Food and Beverage

  — Piping systems are used in a wide variety of applications from food chilling and freezing systems to inerting bottles and bags before filling.

• Medical and Research

  — Rigid vacuum insulated pipes, as well as flexible hoses, are used to transfer a variety of cryogens from storage vessels to points of use.

• Aerospace and Industrial

  — Our vacuum jacketed systems are used in space and aeronautics research applications.

• Electronic and Semiconductor

  — Standard and custom vacuum jacketed products are used in the manufacturing processes.
