XL-160 and180 will allow you to use a hand truck or a hoist to handle these loads properly. XL-100, XL-230 and XL-240 will allow you to use the caster wheel for movement. Do not attempt to move these cylinders by any other means. - Page 5 Depending on the design of the fixation, the permanent transversal vibrations and resonances put a high stress on the inner vessel supports, so that Taylor-Wharton cannot keep the warranty for the vacuum. Please seek advice from Taylor-Wharton to look for possible solutions.

5. Operation The XL-100/XL-160/XL-180/XL-230/XL-240 indicates their respective liquid storage capacities in liters of product. The XL-100, XL-160 and XL-180 are designed for liquid nitrogen service. The XL-230 and XL-240 are designed for liquid nitrogen, oxygen and argon services. The following component and circuit descriptions are pertinent to the operation of all the containers and should be read before attempting operation. - Page 9 INSTRUCTION MANUAL LIQUID CYLINDER GL-SERIES Flow Diagram Liquid Fill/Withdrawal Valve Liquid product is filled into or withdrawn from the container through the connection controlled by this valve. It is equipped with a connection (CGA fitting) specifically required for the liquid service, for which the container is configured. If the liquid service changes, this connection must be changed as well.

Page 10: Withdrawal Liquid From The Container
INSTRUCTION MANUAL LIQUID CYLINDER GL-SERIES Inner Container Relief Devices These cylinders have inner container pressure relief valve and inner container burst disc with setting of 22 psig (1.5 bar/152 kPa) and 176 psig (12 bar/1213 kPa) respectively. Pressure Building Coil A pressure building circuit is used to ensure sufficient driving pressure during high withdrawal periods. -
Page 11: Filling The Container
Once you have determined the proper fill weight for the container, connect a transfer hose to the LIQUID fitting from low-pressure sources of liquid. Open the supply valve. Then, on the XL-100/160/180/230/240, open the LIQUID and VENT valves to begin the fill. - Page 12 A fill is accomplished by first establishing a pressure difference between the source vessel and the XL-100/160/180/230/240 (higher pressure at the bulk vessel). The pressure differential will then push the liquid from the storage vessel to the container being filled.

INSTRUCTION MANUAL LIQUID CYLINDER GL-SERIES Fill Hose Taylor-Wharton fill hose for the XL-100/160/180/230/240 are designed to transfer specific liquefied gases to, or from, the containers. Cryogenic transfer hoses are constructed of stainless steel for the transfer of cryogenic liquids and are available in six feet (1.8 m) lengths with 3/8 in. -

Page 15: Purge Procedure
INSTRUCTION MANUAL LIQUID CYLINDER GL-SERIES 11. Purge Procedure After changing the cylinder product service, determine the level of purity in the pressure vessel. If the pressure vessel contents purity is unacceptable, perform a purge procedure to reduce contaminants. The following procedure is recommended for the applications: Attach warm nitrogen, N2, source to the liquid fill/withdrawal valve. - Page 16 INSTRUCTION MANUAL LIQUID CYLINDER GL-SERIES Regulator Adjustment on Container Fill the container to approximately 2/3 with appropriate liquid product. Open the pressure building valve and allow the container to stabilize, until the pressure does not change any more, about half an hour. Note the point, when the pressure stabilizes, this is the set pressure of the pressure building regulator.

When the regulator under test closes, the P.B. set point may be read on the downstream pressure gauge. Close the ON/OFF valve and open the Dump valve. To reset the regulator, loosen the locknut on the adjusting screw. -

Page 19: Liquid Content Gauge
Any test results greater than two times the listed value is indicative of a failed or failing vacuum. If NER is found to be high, contact Taylor-Wharton or your distributor. An increased evaporation rate is shown by fast pressure building, but it is not dangerous, because the container is protected by a pressure relief valve and an inner container bursting disc. -
