Nitrogen compressor

Listing ID #3589120

Nitrogen is separated from air using unique Carbon molecular sieves (CMS). Dry, oil free air at ambient temperature and elevated pressure is passed through vessels (adsorbers) containing molecular sieve. The sieve holds on to (adsorbs) Oxygen molecules in preference to the nitrogen molecules, thus separating nitrogen from air. The oxygen molecules are released (desorbed) from the sieve when the pressure in the adsorber is reduced, thus making the sieve fresh again (regeneration). Two vessels are employed for continuous supply of nitrogen. The entire cycle is microprocessor controlled and no operator attention is required for normal operation. The only running cost is electricity. There are no other costs such as rentals for cylinderstanks, deposits, transportation, taxes. No manpower is needed to procure, load, unload, connect and disconnect heavy high pressure cylinders. And the risk of running out due to unpredictable deliveries is eliminated.
