Nitrogen Gas Purging Protects Equipments Against Humidity and Condensation

Brownell has introduced its Neps1000 (Nitrogen Environment Purge System), which creates dry internal environments for cameras, circuit boards, lasers, high voltage and electronic equipment, optical systems and other equipment at risk of malfunction and long-term corrosion from the damp. It provides oxygen inhibiting with nitrogen gas protection.

Purging is used as part of the manufacture procedure to remove in built moisture within instruments and systems to prevent condensation and high humidity resulting in malfunction and poor reliability. Using NEPS1000 provides users with purging process performance including dewpoint dryness in built moisture removal. Standard purging processing often uses two ports to flow the gas through the instrument or system.

NEPS1000 provides the use with complete gas control and management whilst economising the use of dry gas and improving purging efficiency. NEPS1000 is fully automatic and can be programmed to achieve the users required dryness without manual intervention.

NEPS1000 can also be used with dry air or other gases when a dry specific inhibiting environment is required. Gas dryness can be tested with NEPS1000 before purging commences. NEPS1000 is available in both laboratory and portable versions for field and remote applications. NEPS1000 can also be used to pressure test an instrument or system to prove or establish a leakrate before purging.
