Figure 1 - FID Gas Stations

FID Gas Stations (see Figure 1) are completely engineered systems designed to

produce ultra pure, dry hydrogen gas from deionized water using a Proton Ex-

change Membrane cell. The hydrogen generator utilizes the principle of electrolytic

dissociation of water and hydrogen proton conduction through the membrane. The

hydrogen stream is dried using a coalescing ﬁlter,a drying tube and dessicant. The

outlet pressure of the hydrogen unit is 60 psi (4.08 Barg) with a maximum hydro-

gen delivery ﬂow rate of 90 cc/min for Model 1000, and 250 cc/min for Model 2500.

The FID gas stations are ideal for use as fuel gas in Flame Ionization Detectors

(FID’s), Trace Hydrocarbon Analyzers, and other general laboratory equipment

requiring a source of pure hydrogen.

Parker Balston Gas Stations also incorporate a Zero Air Generator (ZAG) which will

replace inconvenient high pressure gas cylinders as a source of hydrocarbon-free

air. This will purify on site compressed air to a total hydrocarbon concentration of

less than 0.1 ppm (measured as methane). The ZAG may be used to generate fuel

for Flame Ionization Detectors (FID’s) or for a zero reference for any instruments

which measure hydrocarbon concentration. Model 1000 is capable of producing

1000 cc/min of zero grade air and will serve up to three FID’s, and Model 2500 will

serve up to six FIDs.

General Description

These instructions must be thoroughly read and understood before install-

ing and operating this product. Any modiﬁcation of the product will void the

warranty. Failure to operate this product in accordance with the instructions

set forth in this manual and other safety governing bodies could jeopardize

the safety of the operator and void the safety certiﬁcation of this product.

If you have any questions or concerns, please call the Technical Services

Department at 800-343-4048, 8AM to 5PM Eastern Time (North America only).

For other locations, please contact your local representative.

Do not use a Hydrogen gas storage vessel in conjunction with the Hydrogen

generator. Stored quantities of hydrogen pose an explosion hazard.

Normal precautions for any hydrogen supply should be taken when using

the hydrogen generator. DO NOT USE IN A SEALED OR UNVENTED ROOM.

CAUTION: DO NOT USE AN OPEN FLAME OR OTHER IGNITION SOURCE

WITHIN 10 INCHES (25cm) OF THE OXYGEN VENT!
