Advantages of ParkerBalston Membrane Nitrogen Generators
ParkerBalston Membrane Nitrogen Generators produce up to 99.5% pure commercially sterile nitrogen at dewpoints to -58ºF (-50ºC) from a compressed air supply.  All Membrane Nitrogen Generators include a 0.01 micron membrane filter which ensures the nitrogen is completely free of suspended impurities.  For applications requiring monitoring and controlling, the HFX Series include an oxygen monitor which offers LED readouts and remote alarm or chart recorder capabilities.  An audible alarm signals high or low oxygen concentrations (determined by the application).  The oxygen monitor is supplied with alarm relay outputs which may be used to signal a remote alarm, open a backup supply or the process stream, or close the process flow.

Proven Technology
ParkerBalston Membrane Nitrogen Generators produce up to 99.5% pure, commercially sterile nitrogen at dewpoints to -58ºF (-50ºC) from a compressed air supply.  All Membrane Nitrogen Generators include a 0.01 micron membrane filter which ensures the nitrogen is completely free of suspended impurities.  For applications requiring monitoring and controlling, ParkerBalston offers systems which include oxygen monitors.

ParkerBalston Nitrogen Generators are one of the most efficient membrane systems available with higher recovery rates and lower operating costs than many other membrane systems.

How The Technology Works
ParkerBalston Nitrogen Generators utilize proprietary membrane separation technology.  The membrane divides the air into two streams: one is 95%-99.5% pure nitrogen, and the other is oxygen-rich with carbon dioxide and other trace gases.

The generator separates air into its component gases by passing inexpensive, conventional compressed air through bundles of individual hollow fiber, semi-permeable membranes.  Each fiber has a perfectly circular cross section and a uniform bore through its center.  Because the fibers are so small, a great many can be packed into a limited space, providing an extremely large membrane surface area that can produce a relatively high volume product stream.

Compressed air is introduced to the center of the fibers at one end of the module and contacts the membrane as it flows through the fiber bores.  While oxygen, water vapor and other trace gases permeate the membrane fiber and are discharged through a permeate port, the nitrogen is contained within the hollow fiber membrane, and flows through the outlet port of the module.

Water vapor also permeates through the membrane; therefore, the nitrogen product gas is very dry.

Savings and Convenience
The ParkerBalston Membrane Nitrogen Generators completely eliminate the inconvenience and the high costs of nitrogen Dewars and cylinders.  There is no need to depend on outside vendors for nitrogen gas supplies.  The hassles of changing dangerous, high pressure cylinders and interruption of gas supplies are completely eliminated.  The ParkerBalston Systems offer long term cost stability by eliminating uncontrollable vendor price increases, contract negotiation, long term commitments and tank rentals.  Once the Generator is installed, a continuous nitrogen supply at consistent purity is available within minutes from start-up.

Easy To Operate And Maintain
The ParkerBalston Nitrogen Generators are complete systems ready to operate as delivered with carefully matched components engineered for easy installation, operation and long term reliability.  The generators are free-standing and housed in an attractive cabinet.  Standard features include: high efficiency coalescing prefilters with automatic drains, an activated carbon filter, and a 0.01µm membrane final filter.

Installation consists of simply connecting a standard compressed air line to the inlet and connecting the outlet to a nitrogen line.  The membrane systems offer the advantages of no moving parts and no electrical requirements.

There is no complicated operating procedure to learn or labor intensive monitoring involved.  Simply select the purity your process requires, set the flow and pressure, and within minutes high purity, dry nitrogen is available for use!

Once the system is operating, it requires little monitoring.  The only maintenance involves changing the coalescing filter cartridges and activated carbon filter annually.  This is a simple ten minute procedure.

The ParkerBalston HFX Series include an oxygen monitor which offers LED readouts and remote alarm or chart recorder capabilities.  An audible alarm signals high or low oxygen concentrations (determined by the application).  The oxygen monitor is supplied with alarm relay outputs which may be used to signal a remote alarm, open a backup supply or the process stream, or close the process flow.
