Patent ID: 8244116

Claim:
A device for storing a compressed high purity liquefied gas and distributing a flow greater than or equal to 1 kg/h of the compressed high purity liquefied gas comprising: a) a vessel containing a liquefied phase of said gas in its lower part and a gaseous phase of said gas in its upper part, b) a liquid level indicator, c) a delivery system operably connected to the vessel and adapted for drawing off the gaseous phase of said gas, d) a heating system comprising a circulation of a hot fluid in a stainless steel tubing circuit on at least a lower quarter surface of the vessel and adapted to maintain a constant pressure of the gas at a point of delivery in fluid communication with the delivery system, e) a regulator configured to regulate the flow of hot fluid circulating in the heating system according to the pressure of the gas, and f) an insulating system covering at least part of the outer surface of the vessel on which the heating system is incorporated, wherein a temperature of the hot fluid is less than or equal to 50° C., the capacity of the vessel lies between 1 metric ton and 100 metric ton, and the flow of gas withdrawn lies between 1 kg/h and 100 kg/h.
