10Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Four topics: selection, technology, approval, ordering.
How long does a vessel last without refilling?
Holding time is capacity divided by evaporation rate and ranges from 10 to over 200 days depending on the model. Plan your delivery interval with a reserve — with monthly refills, choose at least 45 days.
Which neck opening do I need?
Narrow neck openings hold the cold longest; wide neck openings make handling easier and increase capacity. Neck opening diameters: AC L 50, AC XL 80, AC XL+ 90, AC 2XL 125, AC 2XL+ 127, AC 3XL 216 mm. Among the vessels, rack systems are only available in the -B versions of the AC 2XL and AC 3XL series (including AC 2XL50T-B), as well as a rack storage system for the AC BIO 430, AC BIO 860 and AC SYS 480 with frame freezers, and for the AC DS10-B, DS15-B and DS25-B dry shippers.
Straws, vials or blood bags — what goes where?
Short canisters (-S, 120 mm) hold straws only; long canisters (-L, 276 mm) hold straws and vials. Racks are used for vials in cryoboxes. The AC 3XL is the only series that is also suitable for blood bags.
What is the quickest way to find the right model?
Use the product finder above: a few questions in plain language, then one recommendation plus a smaller and a larger alternative. If you know your specifications, filter directly in the specifications section.
Why does the evaporation rate matter?
It determines your running costs. A vessel losing 0.12 instead of 0.20 litres per day saves considerable nitrogen over its life — and you refill less often.
What makes the gold standard?
Between inner and outer vessel is a high vacuum with super-insulation that almost entirely stops heat conduction. Auguste Cryogenics gives a five-year warranty on it.
Does the vessel need maintenance?
The service interval is five years. For the maintenance and TÜV inspection due then, we or our licensed partners come to your site.
Can canisters and racks be retrofitted later?
Inventory systems are available as accessories for every series, as long as the neck opening fits. Changing the system later costs more than choosing correctly at the start.
Which vessels may I transport filled on the road?
These vessels are designed for transport from the factory and approved under ADR: all vessels up to 10 litres and the T models. When filled, they may only be carried on public roads in accordance with the GGVSEB or ADR regulations.
What is a dry shipper and when do I need one?
A dry shipper holds the nitrogen in an absorbent material, so nothing can leak. Under IATA the dry shipper is not classified as dangerous goods, because there is no free liquid nitrogen in the vessel.
How quickly will I receive a quote?
Tell us sample format, quantity and required holding time — our team will get back to you with a suitable model and a quote.
Do you deliver outside the EU?
Yes. For orders outside the EU we handle the complete package: export declaration, customs clearance and import in your destination country.
Will spare parts still be available later?
Yes. Spare parts are guaranteed over the entire service life — canisters, racks, castor sets and lids are available for every series.
Are there reseller conditions?
Yes, through the Cryonos partner programme in three levels – from registered partner to gold partner, each with tiered purchase conditions.
