Introduction
The Peak Scientific Instruments range of Zero Air Gas Generators is designed to produce a
constant flow of Zero Grade Air with a Hydrocarbon content (as Methane) of less than 0.1 ppm.
Unpacking and Installation
Please save the product packaging for storage or future shipment of the generator.
Although Peak Scientific take every precaution with safe transit and packaging, it is advisable to
fully inspect the unit for any sign of transit damage.
ANY DAMAGE SHOULD BE REPORTED IMMEDIATELY TO THE CARRIER AND PEAK
SCIENTIFIC OR THE DISTRIBUTER FROM WHERE THE UNIT WAS PURCHASED.
After unpacking and a visual inspection, the unit should be placed in a ventilated area away
from direct sunlight. Care should be taken not to obstruct the ventilation holes on the bottom of
the unit nor the fan outlet at the Rear. The generator should be placed on a steady and level
base. The generator is designed to be installed inside a standard 19” telecom cabinet. The
generator requires 4U space overall. Performance of the generator (like all sophisticated
equipment) is affected by ambient temperatures and humidity. Prolonged operation in
temperatures exceeding 28
°
C will shorten the life of the unit. Operation in relative humidity
exceeding 70% may result in moisture carry-over. Additional moisture traps should be installed
downstream of the generator should ambient regularly exceed 70% Rh. and also if the
generator is any distance from the application. Moisture traps or coalescers should be located
as close to the application as possible. Note should also be taken of the proximity of Air
Conditioning outlets. These can sometimes give rise to “pockets” of air with high relative
humidity. Operation of the generator within such a pocket could adversely affect its
performance.
