Nitrogen Gas Use in Fire Safety Training

July 14, 2014 by

Fire

For fire safety, fire rescue organizations, and their employees, smoke simulation is a key part of the overall training experience. In many cases, nitrogen gas can be used to produce dense vapor that simulates smoke in a safe manner. This helps create a realistic training environment while protecting the trainees from the harm of real […]

Lab Applications that Benefit from Nitrogen Generators

June 19, 2014 by

Nitrogen generators allow facilities that utilize nitrogen to efficiently create their own supply of N2 gas on demand. This provides a level of cost effective, efficient N2 production that most clients find far superior to bulk liquid, especially in lab applications. While nitrogen generation can enhance operations in a variety of industrial and commercial applications, one […]

Nitrogen Helps Control Incubator Oxygen Levels

January 23, 2014 by

In IVF (in vetro fertilization), an incubator serves the purpose of protecting and culturing an embryo, hopefully to the point where it can be transplanted, resulting in pregnancy. Incubator oxygen levels are important. Maintaining a reduced oxygen level within the embryonic incubator is essential to preserving the embryo inside. In order to reduce the level […]

Optics Purge with Nitrogen

December 13, 2013 by

Optical instruments rely on nitrogen for a process known as “purging”, called optics purge. This process ensures that the optical lenses remain fog-proof or water-proof. Purging with N2 gas can apply to a variety of optical instruments, including night vision goggles, binoculars, cameras, microscopes, telescopes and more. Many of the products that rely on nitrogen gas for […]

Nitrogen Gas Use in the Aerospace Industry

December 2, 2013 by

Industrial Pattern

In the aerospace industry, nitrogen gas can be used to pressurize certain components of industrial autoclaves. Because nitrogen is an inert gas which prevents the possibility of combustion, it is an ideal choice for systems that operate under high temperatures or high pressure. See: Nitrogen Gas and Aerospace Manufacturing Autoclaves apply heat and pressure to the workload […]

Nitrogen Gas for Transmission Lines

November 22, 2013 by

When you combine the presence of oxygen, moisture, and certain other materials, corrosion can occur. This corrosion can cause long-term damage and ruin the structure and operation of various mechanical and industrial components. Transmission lines are no exception. In addition to corrosion, transmission lines can also be vulnerable to voltage arcs and oxidization when oxygen […]
