ZAG-6L Zero Air Generator

SHARE

The California Analytical Model ZAG-6L has been designed to operate continuously 24hours/ day, 7 days/week to provide a pure air source of “zero air” for use in analytical gas analysis equipment. The ZAG-6L completely eliminates the inconvenience and high costs of precision blended zero air cylinders. This is particularly important with instrumentation which, in addition to zero calibration air, requires pure air for burner combustion flame ionization detectors and ozone production for chemiluminescence analyzers. In these types of applications requiring a continuous supply of zero air, payback for the ZAG is usually less than six months. The generator is quiet and easy to install requiring only AC power and a source of compressed air.

Method of Operation

The California Analytical Model ZAG-6L Zero Air Generator utilizes the principle of oxidation to provide a clean and dry supply of pure air for use in analytical instrumentation.

The customer supplied compressed air source is introduced to the ZAG-6L which is then purified for use in analytical gas monitoring equipment. The ZAG reduces a contaminated air supply to provide pure air with less than 1 ppm carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, total hydrocarbons (including methane), and of oxides of nitrogen. The reduction meets the 1 ppm pure air specification even with background concentrations of 500 ppm C THC, 200 ppm CO, 1,500 ppm CO2 and 50 ppm NOx. The contaminated air source is first passed through an oxidizer to reduce all hydrocarbons including methane. The air is then passed through one of two switched tubes containing a molecular sieve for NO2, H2O, CO and CO2 removal.
