High-performance gas generators are essential for modern laboratories where a continuous and stable gas supply is required for techniques such as Gas Chromatography (GC), Thermal Analysis, LC-MS, and related analytical methods. Conventional gas cylinders occupy significant space, involve recurring costs, and require constant monitoring. Gas generators effectively eliminate these issues by producing gases on demand.
These compact, high-technology systems generate Nitrogen (N₂), Hydrogen (H₂), and Zero Air with purity levels reaching up to 99.9999%. Designed for precision and long-term reliability, gas generators are suitable for all analytical instruments that require hydrogen, ultra-pure air, or nitrogen.
The systems fully comply with the specifications required for gas chromatography applications in research, development, quality control laboratories, process lines, and specialized analytical environments.
Advanced Gas Generation Technology
- Gas production is based on PEM (Proton Exchange Membrane) or PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) technology, depending on the desired purity level. These methods do not rely on corrosive or hazardous chemical reactions, ensuring safe and environmentally responsible operation.
- The generators feature a compact modular design with multi-level mounting options, significantly reducing laboratory footprint. Integrated safety systems make them far safer and more practical than traditional high-pressure gas cylinders, which require frequent refilling and purity checks.
LABORATORY GAS GENERATORS
- Laboratory gas generators provide a cost-effective and reliable alternative to imported high-end systems. A complete range of gas generation and purification solutions is available for gas chromatography applications:
- Hydrogen generators producing pure (99.995%) and ultra-pure (99.9999%) hydrogen, offering higher purity and enhanced safety compared to cylinders
- Zero air generators using catalytic air purification to improve analytical accuracy, with self-regenerating filters that reduce routine maintenance
- Nitrogen generators based on adsorption technology for stable and continuous nitrogen supply
- Gas purification units (BOV) designed for additional removal of hydrocarbons from nitrogen and air
- Dry air compressors (SWR) supplying clean, dry air for nitrogen generators and optical laboratory systems, featuring automatic filter regeneration to minimize upkeep
- These systems operate smoothly, quietly, and continuously without internal hydrogen storage tanks, significantly improving operational safety. They are ideal for demanding analytical needs such as process monitoring, quality control, service laboratories, and R&D applications.
BENEFITS OF GAS GENERATORS
- Reliable Analytical Results
- A continuous supply of purified nitrogen enhances chromatograph stability and ensures highly reproducible results.
- Improved Laboratory Efficiency
- Large nitrogen volumes required for LC-MS and GC applications are delivered consistently, improving routine laboratory workflows. Wall-mounting options help save valuable workspace.
- Enhanced Safety
- Gas generation at low pressure and ambient temperature eliminates risks associated with high-pressure cylinders and liquid nitrogen.
- Simple Installation
- Models equipped with integrated compressors operate independently without external gas supplies.
- Quiet Operation
- Advanced split-system designs allow the compressor to be installed separately, significantly reducing noise levels inside the laboratory.
WHY CHOOSE A GAS GENERATOR?
- Gas generators provide a safe, economical, and user-friendly alternative to traditional gas cylinders and dewars. They deliver on-demand, high-purity gas with minimal maintenance and consistent performance.
- Hydrogen, nitrogen, and zero air generators are specifically designed for gas chromatography and are commonly used to supply gas to detectors such as Flame Ionization Detectors (FID) and Flame Photometric Detectors (FPD). A single generator can support multiple detectors, and different capacity options are available to match varying laboratory requirements.
