Pro Series
General
Congratulations, you are now the owner of a Chart Trifecta
Pro Series high-pressure gas supply system
Chart works closely with our customers to ensure the total
system is designed properly, making the Trifecta system
as effective as possible. Built for long-term durability and
industry leading design, these systems give customers the
highest performance at the lowest operating cost - all while
providing a single point of contact for efficient project
management
Typical Layout
There are three main components to the "Trifecta" system:
• Medium Pressure Bulk Tank (Minimum 175 psig)
• Vaporizer(s)
• Trifecta Pro Series Skid
The Trifecta Pro Series has been designed for ease of
installation and operation An ideal install has the Trifecta
Pro Series skid close to the liquid use valve on the bulk
tank, the pressure building side (back) of the skid and the
vaporizer facing the sun ("heat of the day")
A typical layout is shown here:
Flow Capacity
The Trifecta Pro Series system is designed to supply high
pressure cryogenic liquid to a vaporizer, while the reserve
tank is being filled with lower pressure liquid. Its priority is
to maintain supply pressure at or above the required pressure
setting The unique design has self-contained diagnostics that
alert the operator when the process exceeds the flow rating of
the Trifecta
The Pro Series can supply liquid nitrogen and liquid argon in
maximum allowable working pressures from 500 to 600 psi
It can supply liquid oxygen in maximum allowable working
pressures of 500 psi

The system uses ambient vaporizers to maintain pressure
and convert the cryogen into gas; therefore, the performance
is dependent on the weather conditions The best ambient
conditions are warm, dry air. The worst is damp air just
above the freezing point
The Pro Series was developed and tested by Chart's New
Product Development group in the harsh New Prague,
Minnesota winter conditions for optimal performance in the
field.
For example: the Trifecta X15 is rated to deliver liquid
nitrogen at 425 psi @ 15,000 SCFH in ambient conditions
similar to Minnesota If the end user can tolerate lower
delivery pressures, the Pro Series can deliver even greater
flow rates. If the rated flows are not needed, the system can
be set to higher pressures
Note: Rated flows on standard Trifectas are not
for continuous duties in excess of 8-10
hours per day. Higher duty cycles require
auxiliary pressure build capacity and
properly sized process vaporizers.
