Nitrogen Based Smoke Machines for Fire Simulation

Using a Nitrogen based smoke machine is necessary for professional fire department training simulations. But high-pressure liquid Nitrogen must be handled with extreme care and can be difficult to manage in large quantities, requiring increased safety measures. It also means making sure you have regularly scheduled deliveries of liquid N2 gas being delivered to your facility and then storing the extra tanks until ready for use.

The SmokeBlast™ unit has an internal Nitrogen generator that produces high purity N2 gas on demand at the same rate as with a high pressure cylinder. This results in greater safety and convenience compared to a high-pressure liquid Nitrogen source. It also proves to be more cost effective than liquid nitrogen due to savings on repeated gas deliveries. With a SmokeBlast™ Nitrogen Generating System, you'll never have to order liquid N2 tanks from a gas company again.

Benefits of the SmokeBlast™ Nitrogen Generating System

As mentioned previously, the SmokeBlast™ unit out-performs liquid Nitrogen gas for use with smoke machines for fire training exercises in terms of being more:

• Safe - Nitrogen is a clean, dry, non-flammable, inert gas used with smoke machines in fire department training drills. The SmokeBlast™ unit generates N2 gas from the air without the need for handling high-pressure liquid gas tanks.
• Reliable - With a SmokeBlast™ unit, you won't have to worry about running out of N2 gas to fuel your smoke machine during a fire department training exercise. You also won't have to worry about changing out high-pressure Nitrogen cylinders during fire training.
• Cost Effective - Since the SmokeBlast™ uses a simple process to generate N2 gas from the air around us, you only need to make the initial investment and then stop paying for constant Nitrogen gas deliveries that may also include fuel surcharge, delivery, and yearly rental fees for as long as you need Nitrogen.

In addition to these major benefits of choosing the SmokeBlast™ Nitrogen Generating System to replace your liquid Nitrogen cylinders, you'll also want to consider the following advantages:

• Compact - The SmokeBlast™ unit is compact and uses minimal space, mounted to a wall or to the Nitrogen storage tank.
• Quiet - The SmokeBlast™ unit runs quiet.
• Easy Installation - Installation requires only a connection to a compressed air line (compressor is an available option) and in turn the SmokeBlast™ can be connected directly to the Nitrogen storage tank or a wall.
• Environmentally Friendly - When not producing Nitrogen, the system does not consume compressed air and therefore saves energy and is environmentally friendly.
• System Integrity - The SmokeBlast™ has three stages of high efficiency pre-filtration, ensuring system integrity throughout the life of the unit.

How the SmokeBlast™ Works

The SmokeBlast™ Nitrogen Generating System simply generates Nitrogen from the air using Membrane Technology. The unit flows compressed air through a semipermeable membrane to mechanically separate the larger Nitrogen molecules from the other smaller molecules. Once the Nitrogen is “filtered out”, it is then stored in a Nitrogen storage tank making it available for the smoke machine.

SmokeBlast™ Teams With FireBlast 451

SmokeBlast™ has partnered with FireBlast 451 to provide Nitrogen generating equipment for fire training smoke machines. FireBlast 451 produces live fire training simulators, props, and systems and is one of the leading mobile live fire training trailer manufacturers. Their products are built by firefighters for firefighters.

Smoke machines are seamlessly integrated into the FireBlast 451 product line and they have chosen the SmokeBlast™ as their top choice for generating the Nitrogen necessary for creating smoke. We are proud to be affiliated with such an esteemed and trusted organization in the realm of firefighters and live fire training.
