3 Transport – Plan for the Worst
If the elevator were to get stuck while you were riding with a liquid nitrogen dewar, the nitrogen could eventually evaporate and cause suffocation. When you absolutely must use the elevator when transporting liquid nitrogen, send it to the destination floor alone with a sign advising others not to ride the elevator. You can collect it at the destination floor after going there by stairs or by another elevator.
