Agilent 4107 Nitrogen Generator
(Part number G8001A)
The Agilent 4107 Nitrogen Generator uses ‘pressure swing
adsorption’ technology to produce high quality N
2
from a feed stream
of dry, oil free and dust free compressed air. The process relies on
the differential adsorption of oxygen and nitrogen under high
pressure conditions. Contaminants such as water, oil, organic
compounds and dust irreversibly contaminate the adsorption
medium and significantly reduce the effectiveness of the separation
process. Contamination of the sorbent material with oil will
invalidate the warranty.
An Agilent 4107 Nitrogen Generator can be used as the nitrogen
supply for the Agilent 4100 MP-AES for plasma generation, sample
nebulization and transport. It can also be used to generate nitrogen
for the EGCM to purge the optics. Due to the different nitrogen gas
purities and flow rates required for these two functions, you will
need two nitrogen generators, one each for the MP-AES and EGCM. A
commercial air compressor of appropriate specification can be used
to supply the generator.
