Cryogenic temperatures

(OP)
What would be the temperature range if it is suppose to be "Cryogenics"?

RE: Cryogenic temperatures

Depends on the industry and application.
In general industrial guys would consider any liquid gas handling as being cryo.
But for specialists they usually are thinking much colder, say 20K or less.

RE: Cryogenic temperatures

Typically, a temperature whereby air is liquified would clearly be considered to be cryogenic, i.e., 78 K. But, any temperature where skin and tissue damage can readily occur should be included, such as anything below 200 K, but NIST says anything below 150 K should be considered to be cryogenic http://cryogenics.nist.gov/AboutCryogenics/about%2...
