Ten common questions about nitrogen generators

1.What purity of nitrogen gas can a nitrogen generator produce?

A nitrogen generator can produce nitrogen gas of various purities, ranging from standard industrial-grade nitrogen (typically 95% to 99% purity) to high-purity nitrogen (usually exceeding 99.9%), and even ultra-high purity nitrogen (typically exceeding 99.999%). The choice of purity depends on specific application requirements.

2.What is the working principle of a nitrogen generator?

The working principle of a nitrogen generator is primarily based on either the adsorption technology using molecular sieves or membrane separation technology. Adsorption technology selectively adsorbs oxygen and moisture using a specific adsorbent material, such as molecular sieves, while allowing nitrogen to pass through. Membrane separation technology, on the other hand, utilizes the size and permeability of gas molecules to achieve the separation of nitrogen from other gas components on a membrane.

3.What inputs does a nitrogen generator require, and how does it operate?

• To produce nitrogen gas, a nitrogen generator typically relies on air as its primary input source. The process begins by compressing atmospheric air using an air compressor. The compressed air is then directed into the nitrogen generator for further purification.
• Within the nitrogen generator, two common technologies are employed: adsorption and membrane separation. In the adsorption-based nitrogen generator, the compressed air is passed through an adsorber bed containing specialized materials such as molecular sieves. These materials selectively adsorb impurities like oxygen and moisture, allowing the nitrogen to pass through and be collected as the purified output gas.
• Alternatively, membrane separation technology is utilized in some nitrogen generators. In this approach, the compressed air is directed through a membrane separator. The membrane selectively allows smaller nitrogen molecules to permeate through while blocking larger gas molecules, effectively separating the nitrogen from other components in the air.
• Regardless of the specific technology used, the result is the production of pure nitrogen gas. Depending on the nitrogen generator model and application requirements, some units may also require an electrical power supply to operate auxiliary components such as control systems, valves, or monitoring devices.
• By harnessing the air as the input source and employing either adsorption or membrane separation technology, nitrogen generators offer a reliable and efficient solution for producing nitrogen gas with the desired purity levels. They find extensive use in various industries, including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, electronics, and many others.

4.How is a nitrogen generator different from nitrogen supply in gas cylinders?

The main difference between a nitrogen generator and nitrogen supply in gas cylinders lies in the mode of nitrogen supply. A nitrogen generator continuously extracts nitrogen from the air, providing a continuous nitrogen supply without the need for cylinder replacements. In contrast, nitrogen supply in gas cylinders requires periodic cylinder replacements, and the supply quantity is limited by the cylinder capacity.

5.What should be considered for the maintenance of a nitrogen generator?

The maintenance of a nitrogen generator typically involves regular cleaning and replacement of the adsorber with molecular sieves or membrane separator, inspection and maintenance of the compressed air system, monitoring nitrogen generation performance, etc. Specific maintenance requirements should be referred to the user manual or guidance provided by the manufacturer of the nitrogen generator.

6.Which industries are nitrogen generators suitable for?

Nitrogen generators are widely used in various industries, including industrial, medical, food and beverage, and laboratory applications. They are commonly used in industries such as chemicals, electronics, and metal processing. In the medical field, they are used for anesthesia and gas delivery. In the food and beverage industry, they are used for packaging and preservation. In laboratories, they are used for atmospheric control and protection of equipment.

7.What is the noise level of a nitrogen generator during operation?

The noise level of a nitrogen generator varies depending on the model and design. Generally, nitrogen generators have low noise levels, especially when compared to traditional compressed air systems. Specific noise levels can be referred to the technical specifications or noise test reports of the nitrogen generator.

8.How long does it take for a nitrogen generator to start producing nitrogen gas?

The startup time of a nitrogen generator depends on the model and specifications. In general, nitrogen generators have short startup times, typically ranging from a few minutes to several tens of minutes. Larger capacity or higher purity requirement nitrogen generators may require longer startup times.

9.Can a nitrogen generator simultaneously produce nitrogen gas and oxygen gas?

The design purpose of a nitrogen generator is to separate oxygen and nitrogen to produce high-purity nitrogen gas. Therefore, in most cases, a nitrogen generator does not simultaneously produce nitrogen gas and oxygen gas. If simultaneous production of nitrogen and oxygen is required, additional equipment or techniques need to be used for further processing.

10.What is the energy consumption of a nitrogen generator?

The energy consumption of a nitrogen generator varies depending on the model, specifications, and operating conditions. Generally, nitrogen generators have relatively low energy consumption, especially when compared to traditional nitrogen supply in gas cylinders. Nitrogen generators are typically adjusted based on the actual nitrogen demand to improve energy efficiency and minimize energy consumption.
