Peak Scientific Nitrogen Generator Corona 1010 + Corona compressor

• Supplying high-purity nitrogen for Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS) systems.
• Providing inert gas for sample preparation and analytical instrument purging.
• Utilised in various laboratory and biotech processes requiring a consistent nitrogen supply.
• Supporting gas chromatography (GC) applications where nitrogen is used as a carrier or make-up gas.

Nitrogen purity

Typically 95-99.999% depending on the model and flow rate.

Typical flow rate

For this class of equipment, flow rates commonly range from 10 to 30 L/min.

Outlet pressure

Commonly adjustable, typically up to 80-100 psi (5.5-6.9 bar).

Power supply

Units of this type commonly require a standard single-phase electrical supply, typically 230V, 50Hz, with a specified current draw.

Footprint

Designed to be compact for laboratory environments, often suitable for benchtop or under-bench placement.

Integrated compressor

Units with an integrated compressor eliminate the need for an external air supply.

• What is the primary benefit of an integrated compressor?

  An integrated compressor simplifies installation and reduces the overall footprint, as it removes the need for a separate external air compressor.

• Is this unit suitable for continuous operation?

• What maintenance is typically required for a nitrogen generator?

• Can this generator be used with other analytical instruments besides LC-MS?

• What is the typical lifespan of a nitrogen generator?

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.
