Applications and Characteristics

Linde air-heated vaporizers are heat-exchangers for evaporating and superheating of cryogenic fluids, as are oxygen, nitrogen, argon, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and the like, using the heat of ambient. The fin element can be lined with stainless steel tube for high-pressure and special applications as well as electropolished tube for semiconductor applications.

Applications

The main application for a air-heated vaporizer is the conversion
of liquid gases for procedures like:

Metal processing, e.g. welding

Medical technology

Electronic

Water treatment

Energy

Food industry

Environmental technology
