Nitrogen Generation Systems

The Nordson Corporation nitrogen generation system creates a continuous, uninterrupted supply of 95-99.5% pure nitrogen gas. As a replacement for cumbersome, expensive nitrogen gas cylinders, the nitrogen generation system enhances operation of many Nordson adhesive dispensing systems. The inert nitrogen gas can be used with Nordson foaming systems to produce a closed cell foam that improves physical properties and reduces volume of adhesives and sealants. The nitrogen gas can also be used with most Nordson tank melters or extruders to create a nitrogen blanket to preserve reactive material integrity.

As a self-contained, wall-mount system, the nitrogen generator installs easily without electrical connections. And, the absence of moving parts simplifies maintenance. A 2-stage filter process removes debris and moisture from supply air. The clean, dry air then passes through a special membrane technology that vents unwanted gases while allowing 95-99.5% pure nitrogen gas to pass through the “gas out” port.

Customarily, high-pressure gas cylinders have been used in applications where nitrogen gas is needed. These must be closely monitored to avoid running out of gas which results in interruption of production processes and requires maintenance personnel. A continuous, in-line nitrogen gas supply in place of traditional high-pressure nitrogen gas cylinders eliminates ongoing maintenance and procurement expenses while simplifying operations.
