A storage tank for cryogenic liquid includes an outer tank constructed of a rigid material and an inner tank contained within and spaced inwardly from the outer tank. A supply line supplies cryogenic liquid to a plurality of cryogenic freezers. A fill line having a diameter greater than the supply line allows the storage tank to be filled at a greater speed relative to filling through the supply line and allows the storage tank to be filled while supply cryogenic liquid to the cryogenic freezers. A level sensor processes an impedance to calculate a level of the inner tank and a reporting unit displays the level and may report the level to a remote server.

Method, system, apparatus, and/or device to secure the vapor plug within the dewar. The vapor plug retention strap includes a first connector, a second connector and a main body. The second connector is configured to couple with the first connector. The main body is coupled in between the first connector and the second connector. The main body has a receptacle formed within that is configured to receive a neck of a vapor plug of a dewar and retain the neck of the vapor plug to secure the vapor plug within the dewar.

Embodiments of systems and methods for transporting fuel and carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) in a dual-fluid vessel thereby minimizing transportation between locations are disclosed. In an embodiment, the dual-fluid vessel has an outer shell with two or more inner compartments, positioned within the outer shell, including a first inner compartment for storing CO.sub.2 and a second inner compartment for storing fuel. The dual-fluid vessel may connect or attach to a transportation vehicle to thereby allow transportation of the fuel and CO.sub.2. Insulation may provide temperature regulation for the fuel and CO.sub.2 when positioned in the respective first and second inner compartments. One or more ports having an opening in and through the outer shell and a fluid pathway to one or more of the first inner compartment or the second inner compartment may provide fluid communication through the opening and fluid pathway for loading/offloading the fuel and/or CO.sub.2.

A sensor mounting assembly is configured for use with a vessel arrangement including at least four vessels. The assembly includes first and second elongated frame members, first and second rollers, and first and second sensors. The first sensor is attached to the first elongated frame member and is configured to contact the surface of the first vessel upon actuation in a first direction. The second sensor is attached to the second elongated frame member and is configured to contact the surface of the second vessel upon actuation in a second direction that is substantially orthogonal to the first direction. This disclosure also describes a method of mounting at least six sensors for use with a vessel arrangement including at least four vessels, the vessel arrangement disposed in a container in a two-by-two stacked configuration having a central space.

Gas pressure actuated fill termination valves for cryogenic liquid storage tanks and storage tanks containing the same.

Cryogenic fluid storage tank comprising a pipe for drawing off vaporized gas, which pipe is connected to a first casing and comprises a vaporizer and at least one control valve, a first filling pipe connected to the lower portion of the first casing, a second pipe for filling a downstream end connected to the upper portion of the first casing, a distribution valve assembly configured to enable distribution of the fluid from the fluid source in the filling pipes, a pressurization pipe connected to the lower end of the first casing and a second end connected to the upper portion of the first casing and at least one control valve and a heater, the tank further comprising an air vent regulator, the valve assembly for distribution in the filling circuit, the valve for controlling the pressurization pipe, the valve for controlling the drawing-off circuit and the air vent regulator being integrated into the same valve module, which shares at least one valve element.

A pressure vessel includes a boss tail portion including a boss extension portion having a cylindrical shape and a boss flange portion integrally expanding outward in a radial direction along a circumferential direction above the boss extension portion, a liner portion having a container shape in which an accommodation space is formed to accommodate a fluid therein and a bottom is sealed and coupled, through integral insertion-injection molding, along a top surface of the boss flange portion, and a composite cover portion provided to surround an outer surface of the liner portion and to have a bottom end sealed and coupled while surrounding a bottom surface of the boss flange portion and an outer surface of the boss extension portion.

This invention relates to a pressure vessel comprising a hollow body comprising endless fibers embedded in a thermoplastic polymer, in which the thermoplastic polymer comprises one or more polyamides containing one or more aliphatic monomeric units, wherein the one or more polyamides have a CH2-ratio of at least 5.5 and less than 10, calculated by □ identifying the number of different aliphatic monomeric units in the one or more polyamides; □ determining the number of CH2 groups per aliphatic monomeric unit for each of these different aliphatic monomeric units; □ calculating the sum of the so determined numbers of CH2 groups; □ dividing said sum by the number of different aliphatic monomeric units in the one or more polyamides; taking into account only the aliphatic monomeric units present in the one or more polyamides in an amount of at least 10 wt % with respect to the total weight of the one or more polyamides.

A pressure vessel system for a motor vehicle has at least one pressure vessel, to which an extraction line is connected. The extraction line has a connection point, to which a connection line leading to a consumer is connected. The connection point of the extraction line includes a first coupling part of a quick coupling, to which a second coupling part of the quick coupling, arranged on the connection line, is connected. The first coupling part has a non-return valve, which closes the extraction line when the second coupling part is decoupled.
