Liquid helium – the ultimate coolant for the lowest temperatures and precise applications
Liquid helium, with a boiling point of 4.2 K (−269°C), is the coldest known coolant and is used for numerous applications in the field of low temperatures. Due to its extremely low boiling temperature, it is ideal as a coolant for superconducting magnets and precision analytical instruments. Messer offers liquid helium in Dewar containers with capacities between 50 and 450 liters, as well as in tank containers with volumes of up to 40,000 liters for large consumers such as research institutions and equipment manufacturers. Our experts are available to provide customized advice on the optimal form of supply and the safe handling of liquid helium.
