2. General safety
2.1 Intended use of the Product
ThegeneratorisexclusivelyintendedfortheproductionofNitrogengasfromcompressedair,whichisfree
from bulk water, oil and solid matter constituents.
The product should be sited within a building (see section 7.1 Site selection). The generator must be operated
only in accordance with the data on the rating label and in accordance with the contractual conditions. Any
operations that do not comply with those stated on the product rating label will render the warranty void.
Nomodicationsmustbemadetotheproduct.Anymodicationsmayreducetheoperationalsafetyofthe
product and invalidate the manufacturer’s warranty, potentially resulting in damage to the product and serious
personal injury.
For your own safety, when carrying out work on this product, all relevant national safety regulations
must be complied with relating to pressurized and electrical systems.
This product is only designed to operate at pressures of between 87 - 145 (6 - 10barg) or
232 psig (16 barg) dependant on the generator model.
2.2 Personnel
Only authorized, competent and trained personnel are permitted to work on the product. This user guide is
intended solely for such personnel and is to be used only as a reference; it should not be used to replace
conventional training.
2.3 Safe handling
Please ensure that relevant safe engineering practices and handling procedures are employed when handling,
installing and operating the product. Ensure that the equipment is depressurized and electrically isolated, prior
tocarryingoutanyofthescheduledmaintenanceinstructionsspeciedwithinthisuserguide.
A suitable lifting aid must be used to minimize the risk of physical injury or damage to the
product.

3. Product Description
3.1 Technical Specication
The nitrogen generator operates on the Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) principle to produce a continuous
stream of nitrogen gas from clean dry compressed air.
Pairsofdualchamberextrudedaluminiumcolumns,lledwithCarbonMolecularSieve(CMS),arejoinedvia
an upper and lower manifold to produce a two bed system. Compressed air enters the bottom of the ‘online’
bedandowsupthroughtheCMS.OxygenispreferentiallyadsorbedbytheCMS,allowingnitrogentopass
through.
After a pre-set time the control system automatically switches the bed to equalization mode where the online
bed pressure is equalized with the second regenerated bed. Once equalized the online bed is switched to
regenerativemodeandoxygenisventedfromtheCMS.Asmallportionoftheoutletnitrogengasisexpanded
into the bed to accelerate the regeneration. At the same instant the second bed comes on-line and takes over
the separation process.
The CMS beds alternate between online equalization and regeneration modes to ensure continuous and
uninterrupted nitrogen production.
Whenageneratorisspeciedwithaninternaldryer,eachCMScolumnhasauniqueadsorptionmediatube
technologydryerttedintothebottomofeachcolumn.
The unique intergrated dryer does not require servicing and the life is aligned to the CMS material.
Theintergrateddryerreducesenergyrunningcostsbyeliminatingtheadditionalexternaldryerpurge(typically
20% of the dryer inlet air consumption) and the associated pressure loss across an external dryer. The
compressed air requirement is also reduced accordingly.

nitrogen generator will be held in a horizontal position by wooden struts used to secure the
producttotheboxbase.Theboxtopcovercanberemovedbyremovingthescrewsand
lifted off in multiple pieces.
Damage to Packaging
Checkimmediatelytoestablishwhetherdamagehasoccurredtotheexternalpackaging
andifthedamageextendstotheproductinside.Ifthereisdamagetoaproduct,contact
the relevant supplier immediately.
The support packing box permits longitudinal stacking; however the central
section of the packing box should not be considered load bearing.
In no circumstances must a damaged product be used in operation. Using
damaged products can lead to irreparable functional faults or cause serious
physical harm.

4.2 Unpacking the Equipment
The generator is supplied in a wooden crate. It is recommended that the crate be moved into position using a
forklift truck or pallet truck. Remove the generator from the wooden crate using an overhead crane. Use the
following illustrations for correct guidance on safe handling and lifting techniques.

It is essential that the system into which the product is installed is tted with a pressure
limiting/relief device. This device should be between the compressor and the generator.
The device must be set to prevent the maximum working pressure of 145psig (10 barg) or
232 psig (16 barg) from being exceeded.
