    INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS GENERAL - The Pneumatech PMNG Cabinet Series membrane nitrogen generator is designed for ease of installation. Since it is a packaged system, there are few connections to be made before the unit can be placed into operation. A single point air inlet, electrical connection, condensate drain, and a final nitrogen gas, nitrogen tank connection are required for a proper installation.
  • Page 7: Nitrogen Piping Connection

    NITROGEN PIPING CONNECTION - The final nitrogen connection is made into a ½” NPT (F) bulkhead connection on the utility end (back) of cabinet. No other check valves are required or recommended beyond this point. An isolation ball valve is provided for field installation by others. PERMEATE GAS CONNECTION - A 1”...
  • Page 8: Description Of System

    DESCRIPTION OF SYSTEM - The PMNG Cabinet Series membrane nitrogen generator is a modular system consisting of pre-filtration, separation, and distribution sections. Controls for the system are included in the nitrogen separation unit. Ambient air enters the feed air compressor, which is typically an oil injected rotary screw air compressor via its inlet filter.
  • Page 9 The nitrogen membrane module(s) are located in the heated air stream. On low purity multiple module systems 99.5% and below, the membranes connected parallel. On high purity multiple module systems 99.5% or higher, they are connected in series or combination of series and parallel. High purity systems have separate permeate connections.

On/Off Selector Switch – If the unit is supplied with heater and controls, (but no Operator Interface), the panel will have an On/Off selector switch to start & stop the system. The unit will requires pressure on the system before the heater will run.
  • Page 13 ∆ ∆ ∆ ∆ Ρ Ρ Ρ Ρ Gauge & Message – If unit is supplied with this option, the filter elements can be changed whenever the differential pressure exceeds the setting on the switch. This switch is factory adjusted to approximately 10 PSID and should not require adjustment.

Setpoint Temperature A small “blinking” S1 will appear in the upper left of the display. Press the "#keys to advance to the desired setpoint of 120 degrees F.
  • Page 15 ROUTINE MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE Daily Check for air and nitrogen leaks. Tighten or re-tape fittings as necessary. Check that the Membrane Inlet pressure is as established upon setup of the equipment Check that the inlet air temperature is less than 105°F and pre-cool if necessary. Check that hour meter (if equipped) is operative.
