Peak Scientific Zero Air Generators produce a constant flow of zero-grade air with a hydrocarbon content (as methane) of less than 0.1ppm.
Flow rates are between 1,500cc/min and 30,000cc/min The generators are available with and without internal air compressor and as a 19in rack version.
A catalytic oxidation process is used to produce a continuous supply of gas with methane hydrocarbon concentration reduced to less than 0.1ppm.
In this process, air from the incoming compressed air supply is heated to 400C and passed through a platinum catalyst chamber where the free carbon and hydrogen atoms combine with oxygen in the air to form carbon dioxide and water.
The air is then passed through a cooling coil to reduce its temperature to a safe level.
