Nitrogen Membrane Technology

How is Nitrogen Generated from the Membranes?

A reliable, high performance membrane module is the heart of a nitrogen gas generator. OptimaConcept

Nitrogen Membrane System come with UBE or Parker membrane to provide reliable nitrogen gas

generators that meet the specific needs of our customer applications.

Pressurized air is fed to one end of the hollow fiber membranes. The permeation rates of water vapor,

CO2, and oxygen contained in the air stream are faster than nitrogen and argon and will rapidly diffuse

through the fiber walls. The slower diffused nitrogen molecules remain in the fiber bore and are collected

as the nitrogen product gas. The air flow rate will determine how much undiffused oxygen remains with

the nitrogen gas. The nitrogen product gas is extremely dry, with atmospheric dew points typically below

-40°F. The membranes act like a filter with no moving parts and continuously generate nitrogen at

selected flow and purity.

Nitrogen Membrane Generator

• State-of-the-art membrane separation technology produces dry nitrogen up to 99.9% pure

• Eliminates drawbacks of conventional nitrogen sources—gives you control of rate and purity of

nitrogen production

• Delivers gas flows up to 600 SCFH or more depending on nitrogen purity requirements (even higherflows possible if only dryness is desired)

• Compact, lightweight design allows set-up wherever there's a compressed air supply

• Ideal for the complete range of cleanroom applications, food packaging, PCBA Packaging, Soldering,Chemical Application for Blanketing, Inerting and Modified Atmosphere (MAP)

•

Simplicity of field-proven design ensures completely reliable, economical operation, virtuallyeliminates maintenance

• Nine models available with nine flow ranges.

Why are Membrane Filters?

Simply stated, Nitrogen enrich membranes are the most permeable membranes in the world! High

permeability means more nitrogen is produced in each fiber.

• Fewer membranes are required, resulting

in lower membrane investment and

smaller membrane footprints vs.

competitive systems.

• Excellent nitrogen production, even at low

pressures, allows membranes to operate

directly from instrument or utility air

systems or low pressure industrial

compressors and still be compact and

lightweight.

• Low pressure compressors operate with

less energy, less noise, and less

maintenance.

• robust and are less sensitive to particle

contamination than competitors.

• No additional heating is required to

improve membrane nitrogen production

rates.

• N2 production is extremely stable over

time with little or no performance

degradation.

The membrane nitrogen module is installed in plant air piping systems minimizing overall spacerequirements. The Membrane Nitrogen Module eliminates the need for high pressure and liquidnitrogen cylinders.

Perfect for point of use nitrogen requirements.

Savings And Convenience

- eliminate the inconvenience and the high costs ofnitrogen Dewars and cylinders. There is no need to

depend on outside vendors for nitrogen gassupplies.

- The hassles of changing dangerous, high pressurecylinders and interruption of gas supplies are

completely eliminated.

- The OptimaConcept Systems offer long term coststability by eliminating uncontrollable vendor priceincreases, contract negotiation, long termcommitments and tank rentals.

- Once the Generator is installed, a continuousnitrogen supply of consistent purity is available

within minutes from start-up.

- The OptimaConcept Nitrogen Generators arecomplete systems ready to operate as deliveredwith carefully matched components engineered foreasy installation, operation and long term reliability.The generators are freestanding and housed in an

attractive cabinet.

Standard features include:1. high efficiency coalescing prefilters with automatic drains, an

activated carbon filter, and a 0.01micron membrane final filter.2. simply connecting a standard compressed air line to the inletand connecting the outlet to a nitrogen line.3. no moving parts and no electrical requirements.4. Simply select the purity your process requires, set the flowand pressure, and within minutes high purity, dry nitrogen isavailable for use!

5. The only maintenance involves changing the coalescing filtercartridges and activated carbon filter periodically.6. an oxygen monitor which offers LCD readouts **Optional
