1. Clean air, free from oil and particles
Contaminants in compressed air—especially oil, dust, and particles—can compromise the nitrogen generator and reduce gas purity. For this reason, effective filtration is essential.
If your system uses an oil-lubricated compressor, you’ll need coalescing filters to remove oil aerosols. Pre-filters and fine particulate filters are also recommended to trap solid particles and further protect the nitrogen generator’s membranes or adsorbent materials.
