Overview
The document provides detailed information about the Nitrogen Gas Generator designed for Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) applications. It highlights the benefits, standard features, technical specifications, and the importance of using ultra-high purity nitrogen for ICP purge applications.

Benefits and Savings

• Increased Laboratory Efficiency: Ensures a constant, uninterrupted supply of high-purity nitrogen, reducing the need for frequent instrument recalibrations.
• Improved Economy: Produces pure nitrogen gas as standard.
• Improved Safety: Operates at low pressure and ambient temperature, eliminating the need for high-pressure cylinders.
• Security of Supply: Optional integral oil-free air compressor ensures continuous gas supply.
• Simple Installation: Can be installed directly in the laboratory, removing the need for long gas lines.

Standard Features

• Flow rates of 3, 5, or 10 L/min at 5.5 bar.
• Purity greater than 99.9995%.
• Options include an integral oil-free air compressor and an oxygen analyzer.
• Features such as auto start, alarm display, audible alarm, outlet flow indicator, trend graphs for QA reporting, energy-saving mode, and remote access via internet or GSM.

Energy Saving Mode
The generator includes a real-time calendar and clock, allowing users to schedule operation times to save energy. For example, setting the generator to run only during laboratory hours can reduce energy consumption by approximately 55%.

Technical Specifications

• Models available with flow rates of 3, 5, and 10 L/min.
• Outlet pressure of 5.5 bar and purity over 99.9995%.
• Dimensions and weight vary by model, with electrical supply options of 220v a.c. or 110v a.c.

Importance for ICP Applications
Nitrogen is crucial for purging the optical system in ICP applications, extending the operating range to the vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) spectral region. This is essential for accurate analysis of non-metals, which have resonance lines in the VUV region. The document specifies nitrogen flow rates for different components of the ICP system and outlines environmental requirements for optimal operation.
