Installation
Generator Environment
The generator is designed for indoor use only. It should be installed adjacent tothe application(s) it is supplying. If this is not convenient then the unit can be sitedelsewhere, however, consideration should be made of the lengths of pipe runs aspressure drops can result from extended runs of pipe.
Performance of the generator is affected by ambient conditions. Note should also betaken to the proximity of Air Conditioning outlets. These can sometimes give rise to“pockets” of air with high relative humidity. Operation of the unit within such a pocket
could adversely affect its performance. Consideration should also be given to the
air flow around the unit. It is recommended that an air gap of 75mm (3”) should bemaintained down both sides and at the rear of the unit. Please refer to the drawing
below for the general dimensions of the unit.
The generator should be situated in a well ventilated environment, with at least a
75mm (3”) air gap all around it and should be positioned such that it can be easily
disconnected from the mains supply if required
Minimum Operating Ambient Temperature:

5 °C (41 °F)

Connect the generator to an appropriate 85-264 volt single-phase supply, refer tothe generator serial plate for input specification and ensure your supply matches therequirements.
If the appropriate power cord is not supplied; a new plug, rated to at least 12 amps,
can be fitted by a qualified electrician.
If an appropriate mains power cords is not supplied or a substitute one is used thenensure that all components of it the plug, cord and connector have adequate ratings
for the generator and appropriate approvals for the country of use. Failure to do so
could cause damage to the generator or risk overloading of the power cord

Electrical Panel Access
Changing settings within this enclosure may adversely affect theoperation of the generator. This enclosure should not be accessed
unless by or under direct instruction from a trained individual.
WARNING

Page 18

Normal Operation
The Infinity XE 50 Series Gas Generators are designed specifically to minimize
operator involvement. Given that the systems are installed as described inearlier sections and is serviced in accordance with the specified maintenancerecommendations (see Service Requirements), then it should simply be a matter ofturning the Generator on when it is required.
The Generator will automatically produce the factory set flow and pressure as detailed
in the Technical Specifications.

On Demand Gas
The generator will produce nitrogen on demand. If the application is operating
and requires a gas flow, the system it is connected to will supply this to suit therequirements of the application. If the application requirement for gas stops, thesystem will also stop. If the demand from the application starts again, the system willdetect the demand for gas and will automatically start again to suit the demand.

Eco Mode
When demand from the instrument is below 1.2L/min the Infinity XE generator willstop demanding air from the external compressor. If demand from the application
starts again, the system will detect the demand for gas and will automatically start up
again.

Page 19

Commissioning
With the generator installed as previously described, connect the application to the
Nitrogen output port and open the air supply to the unit. On reaching operationalpressure the generator will produce Nitrogen at the customer-specified purity. The
design of the generator is such that it will deliver up to the rated output flow ofNitrogen, determined by demand of the consuming equipment. Rated flow, purity
and pressure are customer-specific and dependent on inlet conditions being met as
detailed on the individual generator
The design of the generator is that it will deliver variable purity dependant on theinlet pressure and outlet flow rate. Outlet pressure may be adjusted by the pressure
regulator on the rear of the unit, allowing for up to 20 psi pressure drop across thesystem. Should the demand for the nitrogen stop, the generator will automatically go
into "eco-mode" (refer to page 18), shutting off the air inlet. Once the demand restarts
the generator automaticcaly resumes producing Nitrogen. The generator is protectedfrom over pressurising.

Tubing Lengths

CAUTION

The diameter of the tubing which will be connected to the gas outlet
is important and is determined by the length of tubing required.
Failure to follow these recommendations could lead to pressure
between generator and application.

> 10 - 40 meters:

Use 12/10 (12mm O/D, 10mm I/D) Tubing.

> 40 metres:
Please contact Peak Scientific with the relevant distance
andwe
				
will calculate the flow resistance and thetubing size required.
The imperial equivalents are: 12/10 = 1/2” O/D, 3/8” I/D.
Air input tubing for 5030 & 5040 is not supplied. 16mm OD, 12mm ID PTFE Tubing is
reccomended.
