20230366515 · 2023-11-16 · ·

One example of a safety withdrawal system includes a cryogenic container, a withdrawal line and an economizer situated between the withdrawal line and the cryogenic container for withdrawing cryogenic fluid in liquid phase and gas phase, and the economizer is configured as an electric economizer having two controllable valves that are respectively currentless closed, which each may block the withdrawal of the liquid phase or the gas phase from the cryogenic container. The safety withdrawal system further includes an emergency stop off-switch that may be manually actuated, which is connected to the two currentless closed valves of the electric economizer and is configured to simultaneously block the withdrawal of cryogenic fluid by both valves upon actuation.
