4000/5000 Series

 

Oxair Gases’ family of High-Capacity Membrane Nitrogen Systems meets the needs of large-volume customers. The systems use a proprietary high-capacity membrane fibre developed to minimise your electrical power consumption. Engineered for fast installation, low maintenance, and simple operation, these systems are an ideal supply alternative for a wide range of applications, with significant operational savings over liquid nitrogen tanks. Models are available to supply your high-volume requirements up to 70,000 scfh with a range of purities up to 99.9%.

 Technology at Work the World Over

The heart of Oxair Gases’ High-Capacity Systems is the unique membrane technology pioneered by Permea, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Air Products and a leading innovator in gas separation technologies.

These systems’ specially-engineered separation modules contain hollow fibre membranes that selectively remove oxygen, water vapour, and carbon dioxide from compressed air to efficiently produce nitrogen. Purity and flow rate can be adjusted to suit individual requirements. Thousands of systems using our proprietary membrane technology are in operation at sites around the world. Membrane systems generate nitrogen at significant savings over liquid nitrogen. The PRISM High-Capacity Systems can optimise costs over traditional membrane systems.

 

Designed to Meet Your Needs

  • Nitrogen purity adjustable from 95.0 to 99.9% for greatest flexibility and cost savings.
  • Expansion capability allows system to accommodate increased volume requirements.
  • Compact, weatherproof housing allows operation at low ambient temperatures.
  • Floor-mounted configuration requires no special foundations.
