Animal Semen Storage Liquid Nitrogen Tank

Product Name Animal Semen Storage Liquid Nitrogen Tank
Product Image Animal semen storage liquid nitrogen tank
Product Overview The Animal Semen Storage Liquid Nitrogen Tank is a cryogenic storage container designed for long-term preservation of frozen semen used in livestock breeding and artificial insemination programs. It is suitable for cattle, goat-farming-equipment/" target="_blank" class="keylink">sheep, goats, pigs, horses, and other breeding animals where semen straws must be maintained at ultra-low temperature.

The container uses a double-wall structure with high-vacuum insulation and multilayer thermal insulation to reduce heat transfer and liquid nitrogen evaporation. Removable internal canisters provide organized storage and convenient retrieval of semen straws, goblets, or compatible cryogenic sample holders.

The system is suitable for breeding farms, genetics companies, artificial insemination centers, veterinary reproduction laboratories, semen stations, and agricultural breeding projects requiring reliable frozen semen storage.
Key Features
  • Designed for long-term cryogenic storage of frozen animal semen.
  • Liquid nitrogen provides an ultra-low-temperature storage environment of approximately -196°C.
  • Double-wall high-vacuum structure helps minimize thermal transfer and nitrogen evaporation.
  • Multilayer insulation improves cryogenic holding performance.
  • Aluminum alloy outer shell and inner vessel provide low weight, corrosion resistance, and cryogenic strength.
  • Low-thermal-conductivity neck tube helps reduce heat entry through the tank opening.
  • Removable internal canisters simplify semen straw organization and retrieval.
  • Different capacities and neck sizes are available according to storage requirements.
  • Optional protective cover, locking arrangement, carrying handle, and storage accessories are available upon request.
Structural Components The typical liquid nitrogen semen storage tank consists of an aluminum alloy outer shell, cryogenic inner vessel, high-vacuum jacket, multilayer insulation, neck tube, insulated stopper, protective lid, carrying handle, internal canisters, canister lifters, and tank base.

The neck tube is commonly manufactured from glass-fiber reinforced material with low thermal conductivity. Reflective insulation layers between the inner and outer vessels help reduce radiant heat transfer, while the vacuum jacket limits conductive and convective heat transfer.

Internal storage canisters can be configured for semen straws, visotubes, goblets, or other compatible cryogenic storage systems according to laboratory requirements.
Working Principle / Structural Principle Liquid nitrogen inside the insulated vessel maintains a cryogenic environment suitable for frozen semen preservation. At atmospheric pressure, liquid nitrogen maintains an operating temperature close to -196°C.

The double-wall vacuum construction reduces heat transfer from the surrounding environment. Multilayer reflective insulation further limits heat radiation, helping reduce the natural evaporation rate of liquid nitrogen.

Frozen semen straws are organized inside canisters, goblets, or compatible holders and positioned within the low-temperature storage zone. Operators retrieve individual storage units using canister lifters while minimizing the time that samples remain above the tank neck.

Customization Options SHEWUYOU can provide different liquid nitrogen semen storage configurations according to breeding scale, semen inventory, straw format, laboratory workflow, and transportation requirements.

Available options may include different tank capacities, neck diameters, canister quantities, canister dimensions, semen straw holders, goblets, protective covers, locking devices, carrying systems, liquid nitrogen level monitoring accessories, and storage identification solutions.

Complete configurations can be supplied according to project requirements.
Installation & Maintenance Place the liquid nitrogen tank upright on a stable surface in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area. The storage room should be protected from excessive heat, direct sunlight, ignition sources, and unnecessary physical impact.

Check the liquid nitrogen level regularly and refill the container before the level becomes insufficient for safe sample storage. Keep the neck opening, stopper, and lid clean and inspect them periodically for damage.

Avoid unnecessary opening of the tank and minimize the time that canisters remain raised above the cryogenic storage zone. Maintain clear identification records for semen straws, storage positions, collection dates, and breeding information.

Appropriate ventilation and cryogenic personal protective equipment should be used whenever liquid nitrogen is handled.
Project Cases The Animal Semen Storage Liquid Nitrogen Tank can be incorporated into complete livestock artificial insemination and genetics projects. Typical systems may include semen collection equipment, semen analyzers, semen extenders, filling and sealing equipment, programmable semen freezers, cryogenic storage tanks, semen straw identification systems, and thawing equipment.

For large breeding projects, multiple tanks can be organized by animal species, genetic line, semen production batch, or storage date to simplify inventory management and semen distribution.
Product FAQ Q: What is this liquid nitrogen tank mainly used for?
A: It is designed for cryogenic preservation of frozen animal semen and other compatible biological samples used in livestock breeding and artificial insemination programs.

Q: What temperature can liquid nitrogen provide?
A: Liquid nitrogen provides a cryogenic environment of approximately -196°C under normal atmospheric conditions.
