These instructions must be thoroughly read and understood before install-
ing and operating this product. Any modification of the product will void the
warranty. Failure to operate this product in accordance with the instructions
set forth in this manual and other safety governing bodies could jeopardize
the safety of the operator and void the safety certification of this product.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call the Technical Services
Department at 800-343-4048, 8AM to 5PM Eastern Time (North America only).
For other locations, please contact your local representative.
Do not use a Hydrogen gas storage vessel in conjunction with the Hydrogen
generator. Stored quantities of hydrogen pose an explosion hazard.
Normal precautions for any hydrogen supply should be taken when using
the hydrogen generator. DO NOT USE IN A SEALED OR UNVENTED ROOM.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME OR OTHER IGNITION SOURCE
WITHIN 10 INCHES (25cm) OF THE OXYGEN VENT!
FID Gas Stations (see Figure 1) are completely engineered systems designed to
produce ultra pure, dry hydrogen gas from deionized water using a Proton Ex-
change Membrane cell. The hydrogen generator utilizes the principle of electrolytic
dissociation of water and hydrogen proton conduction through the membrane. The
hydrogen stream is dried using a coalescing filter,a drying tube and dessicant. The
outlet pressure of the hydrogen unit is 60 psi (4.08 Barg) with a maximum hydro-
gen delivery flow rate of 90 cc/min for Model 1000, and 250 cc/min for Model 2500.
The FID gas stations are ideal for use as fuel gas in Flame Ionization Detectors
(FID's), Trace Hydrocarbon Analyzers, and other general laboratory equipment
requiring a source of pure hydrogen.
Parker Balston Gas Stations also incorporate a Zero Air Generator (ZAG) which will
replace inconvenient high pressure gas cylinders as a source of hydrocarbon-free
air. This will purify on site compressed air to a total hydrocarbon concentration of
less than 0.1 ppm (measured as methane). The ZAG may be used to generate fuel
for Flame Ionization Detectors (FID's) or for a zero reference for any instruments
which measure hydrocarbon concentration. Model 1000 is capable of producing
1000 cc/min of zero grade air and will serve up to three FID's, and Model 2500 will
serve up to six FIDs.

Final Filtration The final filter on the Parker Balston FID Gas Station is a high efficiency sintered metal filter which removes particulate contamination to 0.5 micron. This final filter ensures that the outlet air from the Parker Balston Gas Station is particle-free. - Page 3 FID 1000 and 2500 Gas Stations Bulletin TI-FID1000C Hydrogen System The Parker Balston FID Gas Station also includes a system to generate and purify hydrogen gas. This portion of the generator includes: water feed system, proton exchange membrane cell, and desiccant dryer (See figure 3).
- Page 4 40 psig and 125 psig (2.7 barg and 8.5 barg ). Maintain- ing a constant inlet air pressure will minimize system pressure fluctuations which may affect the purity of the zero grade air. Parker offers a pressure regulator, complete with a pressure gauge, as an accessory (P/N 72-130-V883).
- Page 5 Installation and Operation Utilities Power - The Parker Balston Zero Air Generator may be operated by a 120 VAC, 220 VAC, 230 VAC, or 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz power supply. Main supply voltage fluctuations must be within ±10% of the niminal main supply voltage. The generator is shipped with a tag at the power receptacle which specifies the factory setting of the voltage selector.
- Page 6 FID 1000 and 2500 Gas Stations Bulletin TI-FID1000C Compressed air - The Parker Balston FID 1000 and FID 2500 Zero Air Generators require a source of clean compressed air for optimal operation. The compressed air should be as close to instrument quality as possible, and supplied at a pressure and flow rate above that required at the point of use.

Page 9: Quick Start Instructions
When power is supplied to the unit, the catalyst module will begin to heat up. The Parker Balston FID 1000 and FID 2500 / ZAG requires approximately 55 minutes to warm up and achieve hydrocarbon removal to 0.1 ppm (see Figure 5 Power Up / Start Up Sequence). -
Page 10: Operation
The outlet air will contain hydrocarbons in excess of 0.1 ppm. The Parker Balston FID 1000 and FID 2500 ZAG is designed to operate continuously, 24 hours per day, as long as the compressed air supply is not interrupted. - Page 11 At temperature H2 cell = 2.85 V CELL VOLTAGE in Use 89% 65.2 psi ABOVE LIMIT (See Troubleshooting ZERO AIR Guide) At temperature Figure 11 - Front Panel Display Parker Hannifin Corporation Filtration and Separation Division Haverhill, MA • 1-800-343-4048 www.parker.com/ags...

3-4 times to remove impurities from water reservoir. Restart. If message still appears, then run generator for 10-15 minutes to cycle water through cell, then drain and refill again. If problem still persists consult factory. Parker Hannifin Corporation If no resin color change has occurred, consult factory.

/ electrochemical devices. General The primary maintenance tasks required by the Parker Balston FID 1000 and FID 2500 are: changing the prefilter cartridge (annually), changing the sintered metal filter assembly (annually), and replacing the catalyst module (2 years). Each of these components are readily accessible by removing the side panel of the generator. - Page 16 FULL level is reached. The unit will automatically start to produce Hydrogen as soon as the Refill level has been passed, while filling the unit (see Figure 11 for Display Modes).
