CO2 Gas Cylinder

In the food & beverage industry there are many requirements for a CO2 gas cylinder, in growing, production, packaging, chilling/freezing, transporting and dispensing. A reliable CO2 gas cylinder is therefore vital if production is not to be disrupted.

IGC Engineering supplies any CO2 gas cylinder, both vertical and horizontal, in a range of sizes and pressures, from 4,000 to 560,000 litres with a maximum allowable working pressure of 25 bar.

Technical Know How

The secret of IGC's success is that the full range of the company's technical know how is offered with every CO2 gas cylinder supplied. This means that IGC can provide a full service including system design, supply, installation and maintenance.

Complete Installation

A CO2 gas cylinder cannot operate in isolation, so IGC also supplies vaporizers, vacuum insulated pipline and other components needed to provide a custom built installation, not only in the food industry, but also for water & waste treatment, medical, metal refining and other industrial applications.

Service & Maintenance

Once a CO2 gas cylinder has been installed it is vital that regular maintenance is carried out, not only to ensure the strictest safety standards, but also to prevent disruption to production processes due to equipment failure. IGC brings its extensive technical expertise to this area also, offering a range of maintenance packages for trouble-free operation.

The new VTC range of cryogenic tanks combines safety, flexibility and easy economical operation. The VTC series includes 15 models with features industrial gas producers and users have asked for, but could not get until now. They include a high performance, standard design and a wide range of options to meet most special needs.

The VTC series is designed for long-term storage of liquefied carbon dioxide or nitrous oxide. The VTC series is available in capacities from 4.000 to 62.000 liters and a maximum allowable working pressure of 25 bar.

All tanks are in accordance with EN, AD-Merkblätter or other national pressure vessel codes, as required. Tanks outside this range are available upon request.

IGC's other new series of tanks, the VT series, provides high-efficiency, economical vacuum-insulated storage of atmospheric gases.

Finally, IGC manufactures customized vertical and horizontal storage tanks with capacities up to 560.000 liters. IGC can also supply vaporizers, vacuum insulated pipeline and other components needed to create a complete "customer" installation.
