Abstract
A system and method for transferring a low-temperature fluid includes a source of the low-temperature fluid coupled to a device being cooled by one or more fluid hoses or lines. The lines are surrounded by a cover which is coupled to a source of gas. The gas flows between the fluid lines and the cover such that the dew point of the atmosphere inside the cover is below the temperature of an outer surface of the hose such that condensation on the fluid lines is substantially eliminated.
