Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA)
Oxair specialises in nitrogen Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) generators. PSA nitrogen generators offer high purity nitrogen while driving down costs with savings of up to 50% over traditional supply methods. PSA is widely applied at industrial facilities in a range of sectors, including marine, electronics, food and beverage, metal fabrication, pharmaceuticals, and oil and gas for the recovery of high-purity nitrogen.
Flow Rates
We supply Nitrogen Generators from 1 to 10,000 SM3/ of nitrogen per hour.
PSA technology produces inert gas at low pressure, removing the safety hazards associated with high pressure gas cylinders and bulk cryogenic liquefied gas. It works by allowing Oxygen molecules to diffuse into the pore structure of the adsorbent, while nitrogen molecules flow freely upwards to the top of the Adsorber vessel.
At the regeneration stage the adsorbed components are released into the atmosphere and the process is then repeated. Oxair’s standard models produce flow rates of pure nitrogen from the air of up to 99.9%. +
Why choose Oxair?
Our proven nitrogen PSA technology ensures reliable supplies of pure nitrogen. For greater flexibility, we will work closely with you to create tailor-made systems to suit any application.
Parts are built to last on our nitrogen generators, which are operator friendly, meaning minimal maintenance and labour interaction. On the smaller systems the process valves will last 6-8 years before maintenance. Whereas, on the larger systems, the actuators can withstand 4 million cycles before requiring maintenance. Our nitrogen generators are efficient and compact equipment making them ideal for establishments where space is limited.
Microprocessor controlled, allowing for unattended operation, noise levels are reduced thanks to a muffler design. Other advantages of our nitrogen generators are an economiser that shuts the system down during low demand, while the high cycle process valves provide exceptional reliability of supply.
