Atlas Copco expands, enhances PSA nitrogen generation offer
Premium NGP+ range introduces new midsize models and advanced features
Atlas Copco’s NGP+ nitrogen generator range is getting bigger and even better. Building on the success of its premium PSA nitrogen solution, Atlas Copco is introducing two new models to its NGP+ line-up. It has also added advanced features to the entire midsize NGP+ range to give customers more flexibility, reliability, and low cost of ownership.
The NGP+ is Atlas Copco’s premium Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) nitrogen generation solution. Offering a guaranteed gas purity from 95% to 99.999%, it is available in flow sizes from 1.9 to 2871 Nm3/h (for a single unit). Over the years, the NGP+ has built a reputation of superior performance and low cost of ownership. Its expanded and enhanced midsize range (46-820 Nm3/h) continues this tradition with even more customer flexibility and reliability.
Expanded range
The introduction of two new models in the popular midsize segment gives customers more freedom to choose an NGP+ that meets their exact specifications. The NGP 160+ and NGP 200+ offer 46-313 Nm³/h and 58-393 Nm³/h (depending on the selected purity) respectively.
We can deliver the most value to our customers if we can tailor our generators to their needs in term of gas quality, purity, and capacity. This range extension gives us more flexibility to create that customer value.
Flexible operation & installation
A number of new options brings increased flexibility to all midsize NGP+ models. This includes a low ambient temperature setting that allows customers to install the NGP+ outside (in a covered area) in temperatures down to -10°C/14°F.
“Floor space is a scarce commodity in many production facilities,” said Ben Christianen. “That makes the option of covered outdoor installation an important one for many of our customers.” Other newly available options include a room oxygen alarm and the ability to produce ultra-dry nitrogen.
Automated, advanced control
Today’s midsize NGP+ models feature the state-of-the-art Elektronikon® Touch controller with easy gas purity selection and advanced connectivity options. The Elektronikon Touch optimizes the NGP+’s performance and continuously measures gas purity to protect customers’ production. It also monitors the feed air to safeguard the integrity of the adsorbent.
PSA nitrogen with low cost of ownership
What has not changed is the NGP+’s industry-leading low total cost of ownership. The generator and its software are designed to utilize the premium Carbon Molecular Sieve adsorbent with maximum efficiency to ensure minimal air consumption per unit of nitrogen generated.
In addition, the NGP+ comes with a number of valued features, such as the Variable Cycle Saver algorithm. VCS optimizes the PSA cycle during lower demand and in colder temperatures, giving customers up to 40% additional energy savings. The stand-by mode also avoids energy waste.
“For customers who need high-quality nitrogen, there is no better solution than the NGP+,” concludes Ben Christianen. “It offers a guaranteed nitrogen purity at the lowest energy cost and with superior reliability and flexibility. It’s a true best-in-class product.”
