The NitroFlow TG2 generator incorporates a water separator to remove liquid water from the
compressed air before it reaches the prefilters. The liquids are collected in the supplied disposal
container. Refer to the included installation and maintenance instructions.
Two stages of high efficiency coalescing pre-filters are incorporated into the design of the Nitroflow
TG2 to remove water and particulate contamination to 0.1 micron. The generator is equipped with
float drain valves to automatically discharge any liquids which have accumulated in the filter bowls.
The liquids are collected in the supplied disposal container. These filters protect the membrane
and associated components from contamination.
A 3-way pneumatic valve is located after the prefilters to release any leftover liquid water that may
be present on startup.
An activated carbon module is located upstream of both the nitrogen module and the dryer module
to remove any hydrocarbon contaminants that may exist in the room air. A particulate filter is
located after this carbon module to remove any carbon particles.
The NitroFlow TG2 generator has a hollow fiber membrane module which converts compressed
air into high purity nitrogen. The membrane module has no moving parts assuring years of
maintenance-free operation.
There is one activated carbon module and particulate filter after the nitrogen membrane to remove
any contaminants present in the nitrogen stream.
The water vapor in the compressed air passes through the hollow fibers of the membrane for
removal, resulting in dry air. A small portion of the dry air is redirected along the fibers to sweep out
additional water vapor laden air and vented to atmosphere in the cabinet. A dew point of -40°F is
achieved at a pressure of 100 psig.
An activated carbon module is located downstream of the membrane dryer to remove any volatile
organic compounds that may be present in the air stream. A filter is located after this carbon
module to remove any carbon particles.

Diagnostics
Figure 3
Figure 4
There are two diagnostic indicator lights on the Parker Balston NitroFlow TG2 System:
High Temperature LED (red):
The “High Temperature” LED indicator illuminates when the
compressor pump has reached its maximum temperature. The compressor will shut down by a
thermal switch opening, preventing power to the motor. Compressor restarts automatically as
soon as the over-temperature condition is corrected.
Power On LED (Green):
This indicates the compressor is operating.
Installation
All installation, operation, and maintenance activities for the NitroFlowTG2 Generator System
should be performed by trained personnel using reasonable care to avoid injury or damage.
The NitroFlow TG2 system has casters and is packed in a wooden shipping container. The
installation kit, consisting of plastic tubing, tube fittings, and a plug is packed in a box inside
the wooden container. Remove the wire L-shaped fasteners from the sides of the container
(see Figure 3). Do not attempt to lift the generator from the container. Remove and locate the
plywood ramp (see Figure 4). Release the locked casters. Move the generator down the ramp.
Move the generator and installation kit to its installation location.
