(see Steps C through G above) each time the unit is started. 4.6 Temperature Equilibrium If the temperature of the inlet air to the Parker Balston Nitrogen Generator differs from the temperature of the module (i.e. ambient temperature), the system must be allowed to reach thermal equilibrium before a nitrogen stream of consistent purity can be delivered from the system. -
Page 13: Evaluation
4.7 Evaluation Performance of the Parker Balston Nitrogen Generator is highly dependent on the temperature of the inlet air. The data on the flow rate presented in this bulletin is based on an inlet air temperature of 68°F (20°C). If the temperature of the inlet air at the point of use for this system varies from 68°F (20°C) by more than 5°F (3°C), the factory must be consulted for flow and... -
