Parker Balston's FID-1000NA gas stations provide both hydrogen gas and air grade free air for FID detectors in gas chromatographs. These systems are specifically designed to provide fuel gas and supporting air for 10-11 flame ionization detectors, flame photometric detectors or total hydrocarbon analyzers. Hydrogen gas is produced from deionized water using a proton exchange membrane cell. The hydrogen generator compartment uses the principle of electrolytic dissociation of water as well as proton conduction through the membrane. The hydrogen supply produces up to 500 cc/min of 99.9995% pure hydrogen at pressures up to 60 psig. Air grade free air is produced by purifying on-site compressed air to a total hydrocarbon concentration of less than 0.1 ppm (measured as methane). The air-free air compartment produces up to 3500 cm³/min of air-free air. The FID gas stations are high-tech systems with highly reliable components designed for easy installation, operation and long-term performance. The FID-1000NA, FID-2500NA, FID-3500NA models eliminate all the inconvenience and costs associated with gas cylinder supplies for air and hydrogen, as well as the dependence on external suppliers. Uncontrollable price increases, contract negotiations, long-term commitments and tank rentals are a thing of the past. With an FID gas station you have control over your gas supply. All Parker Balston gas generators exceed NFPA 50A and OSHA 1910. 103 regulations governing hydrogen storage. Manufactured and supported by an ISO 9001 certified organization, Parker Balston's hydrogen generators are the first to meet the most stringent laboratory standards in the world: CSA, UL, CE and IEC 1010.
