Advantages of Nitrogen Gas Generators

  • Nitrogen Gas Generators offer several advantages over traditional high-pressure gas cylinders. Firstly, they provide a continuous and on-demand supply of nitrogen gas, eliminating the need for frequent cylinder replacements and reducing downtime. This is particularly important in high-throughput laboratory environments where time and efficiency are critical.
  • Gas Generators are also more cost-effective in the long run. The initial investment in a nitrogen gas generator can be offset by the savings in cylinder rental, delivery, and storage costs. Additionally, gas generators reduce the logistical challenges associated with managing high-pressure gas cylinders, enhancing safety and convenience in the laboratory.

Why Choose Our Generator for High Purity Nitrogen?

High Purity Nitrogen: Our nitrogen generators deliver exceptional nitrogen purity levels, reaching up to 99.999%, making them ideal for applications where even minimal contamination can be detrimental.

Whether it’s for electronics, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, or chemical processing, our generators ensure the highest quality of nitrogen.

Energy Efficiency: Designed with energy efficiency in mind, our nitrogen generators produce high volumes of nitrogen while consuming less power. This translates to significant cost savings and a reduced environmental footprint, making our PSA nitrogen generators an eco-friendly choice for a continuous stream of nitrogen production.

Reliability and Durability: Built to last, our first series of nitrogen generators feature robust construction and high-quality components. This ensures long-term reliability with minimal downtime, providing a consistent supply of nitrogen crucial for various industrial applications.

Innovative PSA Technology

Our PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) technology is at the heart of our nitrogen generators. This advanced technology separates nitrogen from compressed air through a process that adsorbs oxygen and other impurities, resulting in high-purity nitrogen. The PSA process is not only efficient but also flexible, allowing adjustments in nitrogen purity and flow rate in rates range to match your specific needs.

Applications of Nitrogen Gas in Laboratories

High purity nitrogen is critical for various laboratory processes, including maintaining controlled atmospheres, operating analytical instruments, and ensuring sample integrity.

Laboratory nitrogen generators provide dry nitrogen and dry air, essential for applications such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. The purified nitrogen produced by these generators meets stringent quality standards, ensuring reliable and accurate results.

Environmental and Economic Benefits

Switching to on-site nitrogen generation reduces the environmental impact of transporting and disposing of gas cylinders. This approach also leads to significant cost savings over time, as nitrogen generators eliminate the recurring expenses associated with cylinder rental and replacement. Additionally, nitrogen generators provide fast gases and high-purity output, ensuring the efficiency and effectiveness of laboratory operations.

High-Purity Nitrogen and Mass Spectrometry

Modern laboratories require specialized equipment for various applications, including pharmaceutical, chemical, and medical analyses. Oil-free compressed air and high purity nitrogen gases are essential. Oil vapors can cause valve degradation, nozzle obstruction, air contamination, and inaccurate measurements.

Our products provide nitrogen gas with exceptional purity, adhering to rigorous standards, supporting sophisticated analytical methodologies, and ensuring optimal performance.

Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS)

LC-MS is essential in analytical chemistry, particularly in pharmaceuticals and toxicology, for separating and identifying complex compounds. It aids in drug discovery and toxicology analysis, providing insights into metabolic pathways and drug evaluations.

How it Works:

LC-MS combines liquid chromatography’s separation capabilities with mass spectrometry’s ionization. Post-separation, compounds are ionized, and ions are sorted by mass-to-charge ratios for precise identification.

Nitrogen in LC-MS:

Nitrogen provides a clean, inert environment, aiding ionization and sample introduction, ensuring minimal interference with analytical results. Utilizing high purity nitrogen in LC-MS systems enhances the accuracy and sensitivity of the analyses, leading to more reliable data.

The Role of Nitrogen in Laboratory Applications

Membrane Nitrogen Generators are widely used in laboratories to produce high purity nitrogen. These generators utilize Membrane Technology to separate nitrogen from compressed air, offering a reliable and continuous supply of pure nitrogen. This is crucial for maintaining the integrity of sensitive analytical instruments and procedures.

Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) Nitrogen Generators also play a vital role in laboratories. PSA technology produces ultra-high purity nitrogen, ideal for applications requiring stringent gas quality standards. The use of PSA nitrogen generators in laboratory settings ensures consistent and high-quality nitrogen gas delivery, essential for critical processes such as LC-MS and other sophisticated analytical techniques.

Nitrogen in Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA)

Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is a thermal analysis technique that measures weight changes in a sample as a function of temperature or time in a controlled atmosphere. Nitrogen is commonly used as an inert atmosphere in TGA to prevent oxidation and other reactions that could affect the sample’s weight.

By providing a stable and inert environment, nitrogen ensures accurate and reproducible measurements, which are critical for understanding material properties such as thermal stability, composition, and decomposition kinetics.

Nitrogen for Multigas Incubators (Tri-Gas)

Multigas incubators, also known as tri-gas incubators, control the internal atmosphere to mimic physiological conditions for cell culture or microbial growth. These incubators regulate the levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen to create an environment conducive to optimal cell viability and growth.

Nitrogen is essential in these incubators to balance oxygen and carbon dioxide levels, reducing oxidative stress and ensuring the health and functionality of cultured cells or organisms.

Nitrogen for Sample Preparation/Solvent Evaporator

In sample preparation, nitrogen is used in evaporators to displace oxygen, reducing the risk of oxidation during the evaporation process. Nitrogen creates an inert atmosphere that facilitates the efficient and rapid evaporation of solvents, aiding in the concentration of samples without compromising the integrity of sensitive analytes. This controlled environment is crucial for obtaining reliable and accurate results in subsequent analyses.
