- 6. LN2 in public:LN2 Storage Store • Safe and ventilated area • Large quantities : prefer outdoor storage • Secure access • Keep it clean and tidy • Easily accessible at all times Restrict access • Trained personnel only • Limit direct access by the public Consider the weight • Distribution: on higher floors, limit weight footprint • Manipulation: Use the right tools to move tanks Copyright HWBOT 2015
- 7. LN2 in public:Workspace • Keep it clean • Keep it organized • Mount all containers properly • Use a stable table / booth / stage • Show what’s going on • Use TVs to duplicate your screen • Use cameras to display your rig • Avoid people getting too close to see better Copyright HWBOT 2015
- 8. LN2 in public:Safety Safety distance • Rig <> public = 1 meter (recommended) • Adjust fan direction • Do not blow toward public Electric equipment • 110V or 220V ? • Use label to avoid mistakes! • “Proper” cabling • Avoid daisy-chain of power bar, DIY extensions etc. Torch usage • Check regulations at location • If Torches, plan for an Extinguisher Copyright HWBOT 2015
- 9. LN2 in public:Safety • Wear the required PPE • Follow the safety procedures for use and refilling • Local emergency number • Note and share before starting the session • Don’t make “the show” by spitting LN2 • Don’t throw LN2 into the crowd • Don’t pour LN2 on the floor • The public might be wearing open shoes! • No alcohol, No drugs!

Editor's Notes
- #5 LN2 boiling point at atmospherique pressure (abt 1bar)
- #7 Secure access of storage loc Keep storage area clean and tidy Indoors or outdoors consider barriers to limit direct access by the public
- #8 Clean and clear empty drinks and trash throughout the session Make sure the public can see what’s going on Use TVs to duplicate your screen Use cameras to display your rig Avoids people getting too close to see better
- #9 Orient your system fans so they don’t blow towards the public Check voltage 110V or 220V Label which current is available when 2 options exist Ensure that the cabling is “proper” Avoid daisy-chain of power bar, DIY extensions etc. Check regulations for the use of Torches at location If Torches, plan for an Extinguisher
- #10 Wear the required PPE Follow the safety procedures for use and refilling Note and share the local emergency number at location before starting the session Don’t make “the show” by spitting LN2 Don’t throw LN2 into the crowd Don’t pour LN2 on the floor The public might be wearing open shoes! No Alcohol, No drugs! This is a public demo, please be professional and behave like professionnals.
