Cabinet Series

 

Oxair Gases’ low-cost Cabinet Membrane Systems combine the economy and high supply reliability of on-site nitrogen generation with a compact design that fits easily into existing indoor installations. Engineered for flow rates from 5 to 3900 scfh as well as low maintenance and easy operation, this family of PRISM nitrogen systems is an ideal supply alternative for a wide range of applications. The systems provide significant savings over traditional cylinders, dewars, and bulk nitrogen tanks.

 Proven Technology

PRISM Cabinet Systems use the membrane technology pioneered by Permea, a division of Air Products and Chemicals and a leading innovator in gas separation technologies.

These systems feature specially-engineered separation modules containing 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 PRISM membrane systems have been installed around the world.

 

Features and Flexibility for Your Application

Experience proves that every application and location is unique. Oxair Gases’ family of Cabinet Membrane Systems is available with a number of standard and optional features to suit your particular needs for instrumentation, air source, and other requirements. Membrane systems generate nitrogen at significant savings over liquid nitrogen or cylinder nitrogen.

 

Designed to Meet Your Needs

  • PRISM Cabinet Membrane Systems reduce nitrogen supply costs over conventional supply modes.
  • Proven proprietary membrane technology produces highly-reliable nitrogen supply at your site, replacing cylinders, dewars, or tanks.
  • Compact cabinets fit easily into existing facilities and simplify installation.
  • The Series 2000 design with expansion capability allows system to accommodate increased volume requirements.
  • Nitrogen purity adjustable from 95.0% to 99.9% for greatest flexibility and cost savings (Series 500 preset at 99%).
  • Automatic shutdown during low demand (not available on Series 500).
  • Simple design with few moving parts means easy operation, minimal maintenance, maximum reliability.
  • Instant nitrogen generation upon connection to air supply.
  • Generates dry nitrogen with a dew point down to -90°F (at atmospheric pressure) for moisture-sensitive applications.
