Compressed and Cryogenic Gas Cylinders — gas storage from ambient pressure vessels to minus 196 °C
Compressed and Cryogenic Gas Cylinders represent two ways to store the same gas: squeezed into a strong steel vessel at 200 to 300 bar, or cooled into a liquid in a vacuum insulated container.
REAL GAZ supplies both, helping customers compare volume, cost and handling before choosing.

Compressed vessels are made to ISO 9809, cryogenic ones to ISO 21029-1, and fixed tanks nearby follow EN 13458, offering a clear technical route from small to large demand.
A practical example shows how the two technologies complement each other. A fabrication shop may use argon continuously for welding, which suits a liquid vessel and vaporiser, yet keep a few compressed cylinders for mobile repair work and as an emergency reserve. A laboratory might use liquid nitrogen for cooling and compressed helium for chromatography. Each system has its own pressure ratings, hoses and regulators, so REAL GAZ prepares a simple layout drawing that shows which equipment connects where. Compressed cylinders are checked for hydrotest dates, cryogenic vessels for vacuum quality, and both are labelled so staff can identify them immediately.
🏭 Where Compressed and Cryogenic Cylinders Are Used
- 🏭 Mixed demand sites — use compressed cylinders for occasional needs and cryogenic vessels for continuous base load;
- 🛠️ Back-up supply — nitrogen and oxygen back-up on compressed manifolds, while liquid supplies the daily flow;
- 🧪 Research groups — small gas bottles for instruments and liquid dewars for cooling in the same room;
- 🍽️ Food processing — compressed CO₂ and liquid nitrogen share a hall for carbonation and freezing.
💡 Why Choose REAL GAZ
- ✅ Honest comparison — we show when liquid supply or cylinders is cheaper per cubic metre for your volume;
- 🧪 Hybrid layouts — automatic changeover between liquid vessel and cylinder bank for continuity;
- 🎯 One point of contact — orders, inspection and safety guidance come from the same team;
- 🔒 Safe interfaces — vaporisers, regulators and relief valves are matched to each vessel type;
- 📄 Certificate of Analysis (CoA) — supplied with every order.
📦 Which Type Fits
- below roughly 5 cubic metres per day, compressed cylinders are often simplest;
- above that, liquid vessels cut the number of cylinder changes;
- very pure or very cold needs favour cryogenic supply;
- portable or remote work usually favours compressed cylinders.
🔬 Quality Control & Safety
- multi-stage purification and cleaning of every vessel;
- precision gravimetric filling and weight checks;
- moisture & impurity analysis before release;
- leak testing and pressure integrity checks.
Cylinders and vessels comply with ADR / UN transport rules and relevant EN/ISO standards.
