How the MicBlast™ System Works
MicBlast™ is a patent pending compact system that generates and introduces high purity, corrosion inhibiting, Nitrogen (N2). into your dry and pre-action Fire Protection Systems (FPS). The MicBlast™ can be integrated with or replace your existing supervisory air compressor. It uses minimal space, runs quiet and can be installed within your fire pump or riser room. The MicBlast™ generates high purity N2 at the same rate as a high pressure N2 cylinder, therefore making it a safer, more convenient, cost effective solution to inhibit corrosion.
Benefits of a Nitrogen Generator
- Cost effective, continuous supply of Nitrogen to the FPS.
- Eliminates the need to change-out Nitrogen gas cylinders, the liability of handling gas cylinders (high pressure), and the inconvenience of changing out the gas cylinders.
- Eliminates the risk of de-pressurization of the FPS due to ultimately Nitrogen gas cylinder run-outs.
- Requires only compressed air supply to produce high-purity Nitrogen.
- No need for desiccant or regenerative dryers when membrane Nitrogen generators are employed.
- Nitrogen is not a chemical additive and poses no possible chemical hazard.
- The inert nature of Nitrogen prevents the oxidation and aging of polymetric gaskets, seals and O-rings, within the FPS, thereby prolonging their service life.
