Parker Balston's FID Gas Stations provide fuel gas and support air for up to 6 FID detectors, FPD detectors, or TH analyzers
Parker Balston's FID-2500NA, Gas Stations provide both hydrogen gas and zero grade air to FID detectors on Gas Chromatographs. These systems are specifically designed to provide fuel gas and support air to 10-11 Flame Ionization Detectors, Flame Photometric Detectors or Total Hydrocarbon Analyzers.
Hydrogen gas is produced from deionized water using a Proton Exchange Membrane Cell. The hydrogen generator compartment utilizes the principle of electrolytic dissociation of water and hydrogen proton conduction through the membrane. The hydrogen supply produces up to 500 cc/min of 99.9995% pure hydrogen with pressures to 60 psig.
Zero air is produced by purifying on-site compressed air to a total hydrocarbon concentration of < 0.1 ppm (measured as methane). The zero air compartment produces up to 3500 cc/min of zero grade air.
• Ideal for up to 10-11 FIDs
• Produces UHP zero air from house compressed air (<0.1 ppm THC) and 99.9995% pure hydrogen in one enclosure
• Eliminates inconvenient and dangerous zero air and hydrogen cylinders from the laboratory
• Increases the accuracy of analysis
• Reduces the cleaning requirement for the detector
• Recommended and used by many GC and column manufacturers
• Typical payback period of less than one year
• Automatic water fill
• Silent operation and minimal operator attention required
