Normal Operation
The generator is designed specifically to minimize operator involvement. Given that the
system is installed as described in earlier sections and is serviced in accordance with
the specified maintenance recommendations (see Service Requirements), then it should
simply be a matter of turning the generator on when it is required.
The generator will automatically produce the factory set flow and pressure as detailed
in the Technical Specifications.
Normal Operation - Genius 1023
The Genius 1023 Gas Generator is designed specifically to minimize operator
involvement. It has two modes of operation which should be manually selected by the
user to suit the intended application. The two options are:
1. Nitrogen - Should be used to obtain maximum purity Nitrogen.
2. Chip Cube - Should be selected to produce Nitrogen gas with a 10% oxygen
content; as required by the chip cube application.
The Genius 1023 generator has an internal storage reservoir which ensures a quick start
up as demand resumes. However, at a time when the user switches modes of operation,
i.e. Nitrogen to Chip Cube, the generator will first purge the reservoir of unwanted gas
before building pressure at the selected purity. This operation may take up to 5 minutes
to complete. Machine readiness will be evident when the generator output gauge
returns to normal operating pressure. (100psi)
Given that the system is installed as described in earlier sections and is serviced in
accordance with the specified maintenance recommendations, then it should simply
be a matter of turning the Generator on when it is required, and selecting the desired
operating mode.
On Demand Gas
The generator produces gas on demand. If the application is operating and requires a
gas flow, the generator will supply this to suit the requirements of the application. If the
application requirement for gas stops, the generator will also stop, once it has reached
its upper set limit in the internal storage tanks. If the demand from the application
starts again, the Generator will detect the demand for gas and will automatically start
again to suit the demand.
