  • Page 5: Technical Description

    Technical Description Basic Concept The i-Flow is a modular range of Carbon Molecular Sieve (CMS) nitrogen gas generators, that operate based on Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology. Essentially this requires two separate columns or “beds” of granular carbon pellets. The unit requires a compressed air supply to operate, ultimately works on very similar principles to many standard air filtration / drying products.

  • Page 21: Electrical Connection

    Electrical Connection Connect the Generator to a single-phase AC voltage supply using the power cord provided. The generator is fitted with an internal transformer that can accept any supply from 100 to 240 volts AC. If the appropriate power cord is not supplied; a new plug, rated to at least 5 amps, can be fitted by a qualified electrician.
  • Page 22: Recommended Piping Layout

    Recommended Piping Layout To allow proper operation and commissioning of the generator it is important to include bypass valves at the generator inlet / nitrogen outlet of the system. It is also recommended that a non-return valve be fitted on the exit of the system to prevent downstream pressure from returning to the system and damaging the generator.
  • Page 23: Commissioning & Safe Start-Up Sequence

    If unable to achieve specification contact Peak Gas Generation for further assistance. After this time the outlet bypass valve (3) can be closed, and the delivery valve (4) to the customer application should be slowly opened to pressurize the line.
  • Page 24: Normal Operation

    Normal Operation The i-Flow 6000 Gas Generator is designed specifically to minimize operator involvement. As long as the system is installed as described in earlier sections and is serviced in accordance with the specified maintenance recommendations (see Service Requirements), then it should simply be a matter of turning the Generator on. Note: the generator will only produce nitrogen gas based on demand, so should typically be left in a powered state, live compressed air supply.
