Peak Scientific Corona Nitrogen Generator paired with Air Compressor

• Supplying high-purity nitrogen for laboratory instruments such as LC-MS, GC, and ICP.
• Providing inert gas for sample preparation and storage to prevent oxidation.
• Use in pharmaceutical research and quality control for various analytical processes.
• Supporting environmental testing laboratories for precise gas analysis.

Typical Nitrogen Flow Rate

For this class of equipment, flow rates commonly range from 5 to 30 L/min, depending on the model and purity requirements.

Typical Nitrogen Purity

Units of this type typically offer nitrogen purity levels of 95% to 99.999% (UHP), suitable for sensitive analytical applications.

Maximum Output Pressure

Commonly found pressures are between 80 psi (5.5 bar) and 116 psi (8 bar).

Power Supply

Typically 230 V, 50/60 Hz, single phase, with power consumption varying by model but often in the range of 500 W to 1500 W.

Footprint

Compact designs are typical for laboratory models, often with dimensions around 150-300 mm (W) x 400-600 mm (D) x 500-800 mm (H).

Integrated Compressor

Many laboratory nitrogen generators, especially those paired with an air compressor, are designed for standalone operation without an external compressed air supply.

• What maintenance is typically required for a nitrogen generator?

  Maintenance commonly involves periodic filter changes (air inlet, coalescing, and carbon filters) and checking for leaks. The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions.

• Can this unit be used with different types of laboratory instruments?

• What are the typical installation requirements for a nitrogen generator?

• How does a nitrogen generator produce nitrogen?

• What are the benefits of using a nitrogen generator over nitrogen cylinders?

Used nitrogen generators are valued for reliable on-site gas production, reducing reliance on external suppliers. Buyers typically appreciate their cost efficiency over time and operational consistency. When purchasing used units, buyers should verify maintenance history, inspect compressor condition, and confirm membrane or PSA system integrity. Industry sentiment favours established manufacturers known for durability. Key strengths include lower running costs than bottled nitrogen, space efficiency, and reduced supply chain dependency. Buyers often prioritise units with accessible service records and clear documentation of prior use.
