Peak Scientific Acrion N2 Nitrogen Generator + Compressor

Peak Scientific Acrion N2 generator

On Demand Gas

The generator will produce nitrogen on demand. If the application is operating and requires a gas flow, the system it is connected to will supply this to suit the requirements of the application. If the application requirement for gas stops, the system will also stop. If the demand from the application starts again, the system will detect the demand for gas and will automatically start again to suit the demand.

Generator Environment

The generator is designed for indoor use only. It should be installed adjacent to the application(s) it is supplying. If this is not convenient then the unit can be sited elsewhere, however, consideration should be made of the lengths of pipe runs as pressure drops can result from extended runs of pipe. The performance of the generator (like all sophisticated equipment) is affected by ambient conditions. Note should also be taken to the proximity of Air Conditioning outlets. These can sometimes give rise to “pockets” of air with high relative humidity. Operation of the unit within such a pocket could adversely affect its performance. Consideration should also be given to the air flow around the unit. It is recommended that an air gap of 75mm (3”) should be maintained down both sides and at the rear of the unit. Please refer to the drawing below for the general dimensions of the unit.

Peak Scientific Acrion Air Compressor

The Acrion Air Compressor is designed specifically to minimize operator involvement

Given that the system is installed as described in earlier sections and is serviced

in accordance with the specified maintenance recommendations (see Service Requirements), then it should simply be a matter of turning the air compressor on when it is required.

The air compressor will automatically produce the factory set flow and pressureas detailed in the Technical Specifications and as required by the Acrion Nitrogen generator. The generator compressor stops periodically to eject moisture from its drain bowls; this is controlled by a timer. When the compressor is running it is controlled by a pressure switch with two sets of limits:

Output A :

The high point turns the LEDS Blue indicating required pressure is available. The low point turns the LEDS Yellow indicating the pressure has dropped below the required level.

Output B:

The high point turns the compressor off indicating there has been no drop in pressure from the output and the demand has stopped. The low point will restart the compressor if the pressure is dropping.

On Demand Gas:

The air compressor system will produce compressed air on demand. If the application is operating and requires a gas flow, the system it is connected to will supply this to suit the requirements of the application. If the application requirement for gas stops, the system will also stop, once it has reached its upper set limit in the internal storage tanks. If the demand from the application starts again, the system will detect the demand for gas and will automatically start again to suit the demand.

Usage:

The air compressor is designed for indoor use only. It should be installed adjacent tothe application(s) it is supplying. If this is not convenient then the unit can be sited elsewhere, however, consideration should be made of the lengths of pipe runs as pressure drops can result from extended runs of pipe. Performance of the air compressor (like all sophisticated equipment) is affected by ambient conditions. Note should also be taken to the proximity of Air Conditioning outlets. These can sometimes give rise to “pockets” of air with high relative humidity.

Operation of the unit within such a pocket could adversely affect its performance. Consideration should also be given to the air flow around the unit. It is recommended that an air gap of 75mm (3”) should be maintained down both sides and at the rear of the unit. Please refer to the drawing below for the general dimensions of the unit. Please ensure Generator is situated in a well-ventilated environment and is positioned to allow easy disconnection from the mains supply if required.
