Jacketed Pressure Vessels

Vacuum, Heated, Cooling and/or Mechanically Insulated

AET is renowned for its expertise in crafting custom single-wall vessels. Yet our mastery extends further into the fabrication of various insulated vessels, including vacuum vessels and vacuum jacketed vessels. With years of experience and innovation under our belt, we are adept at meeting the specific needs of each client.

Fostering a Unified and Efficient Work Environment
To further our commitment to excellence, our Weld Shop, Machine Shop, and Engineering Departments are strategically co-located within the same facility. This close-knit setup promotes seamless communication and encourages the exchange of ideas. It also allows for immediate problem-solving and collaboration, which is essential in expediting the manufacturing process of equipment requiring tight tolerances.

Incorporating Advanced Insulation Technology
As we transition into the core of our products, our vacuum jacketed vessels stand out. They are engineered for optimal performance in both low and high-temperature applications. The vacuum jacket is a pivotal feature, acting as a robust insulator to effectively minimize cold or heat loss—a critical component that enhances the efficiency of your entire process.

Prioritizing Safety and Performance
Safety is of paramount importance to us. The jackets on our insulated vessels are meticulously designed to do more than just insulate; they create a vital safety barrier. This design ensures a stark temperature difference between the internal environment of the vessel and its outer surface, reducing touch hazards and protecting operators from potential injuries.

Addressing Reduced Condensation and Minimal Frosting
For applications demanding low temperatures, our vacuum jacketed vessels prove their worth once more. They excel at reducing external condensation and minimizing frosting on the vessel’s surface, contributing to a cleaner and safer workspace.

Mastering the Craft with Vacuum Vessels
Moving beyond insulated jackets, our vacuum vessels are masterfully engineered to enable your processes to operate at peak performance. These vessels are designed to maintain an internal vacuum, effectively insulating their contents and allowing operations to continue smoothly, regardless of external climatic conditions.

Ensuring Quality Assurance Above All
Before any of our products leave our premises, they undergo rigorous testing. This step ensures that each vessel, whether vacuum or vacuum jacketed, meets or exceeds industry standards. Our team of ASME certified welders is dedicated to upholding the highest quality workmanship standards, further solidifying our unwavering commitment to excellence.

Concluding with a Client-Centric Philosophy
At AET, our ethos revolves around our clients. We take immense pride in not just meeting but exceeding client expectations. Whether you need a vessel to maintain cryogenic temperatures or to withstand high-pressure environments, our expert Chicago team is poised and ready to craft a solution tailored to your needs, ensuring that your operations run smoothly, safely, and efficiently.
