DESCRIPTION:
RIX Industries’ nitrogen generation systems are self-contained nitrogen generation system that will produce 95% - 99.5% purity dry inert gas. The nitrogen is available at high pressure (up to 6,000 psig) for direct use in a gas assist system for injection molding or can be put in storage cylinders.

The systems consist of membrane module(s) to produce the nitrogen and a RIX oil-free compressor to generate elevated pressure. Feed air compressors are optional. All the components are mounted on a small skid, and operation requires only an electrical connection (shop air connection also required for systems without a dedicated feed air compressor)
.
The RIX nitrogen generation systems will produce up to 60 scfm of very dry nitrogen (-65 deg F dew point; lower dewpoint equipment is optional) which is enough to fill sixty standard bottles per day to 6,000 psig.

The MiniGen operates with regular shop air with supply pressure between 80 psig and 150 psig and flow rate between 17 - 30 scfm for the membrane. A series of filters removes liquid oil or water and particle to 0.2 micron. The air enters the membrane where the oxygen, water vapor and some incidental nitrogen are permeated through the membrane wall while the desired nitrogen is passed on through the membrane. The nitrogen then goes into the RIX oil-free high pressure compressor where the nitrogen pressure is boosted up to 6,000 psig.

  • high pressure, oil-free nitrogen on demand
  • simple proven design
  • nitrogen membrane has no moving parts
  • easy maintenance
  • compatible with existing "shop air" systems
  • low noise level
  • significant cost savings due to on-site generation
  • oil-free compressor design insures contaminant-free
  • high pressure nitrogen
  • low maintenance cost
