Installation
Generator Environment
The generator is designed for indoor use only. It should be installed adjacent to
the application(s) it is supplying. If this is not convenient then the unit can be sited
elsewhere, however, consideration should be made of the lengths of pipe runs as
pressure drops can result from extended runs of pipe.
Performance of the generator (like all sophisticated equipment) is affected by ambient
conditions. Note should also be taken to the proximity of Air Conditioning outlets.
These can sometimes give rise to “pockets” of air with high relative humidity. Operation
of the unit within such a pocket could adversely affect its performance. Consideration
should also be given to the air flow around the unit. It is recommended that an air gap
of 75mm (3”) should be maintained down both sides and at the rear of the unit. Please
refer to the drawing below for the general dimensions of the unit.
Minimum Operating Ambient Temperature:
5 °C (41 °F)
Maximum Operating Ambient Temperature:
35 °C (95 °F)

Electrical requirements for 230V generators is 195V - 253V 50/60Hz. For 195V - 219V a
06-3210 Dual Tap Transformer is required.
If the equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer,
the protection provided by the equipment maybe impaired.
WARNING
Page 17
Start-Up Sequence
Once connected to the mains supply the generator can now be switched on. Flick the
power switch on the front panel of the generator to the on position
The first time the unit is switched on it will ask you to confirm that the transit brackets
have been removed. The unit will not start until the user has pressed the confirm
button.
This message will not appear again on any subsequent start ups.
WARNING
During diagnostics air is expelled through the drain outlet. This is
normal. If a drain bottle is used please ensure that it is empty before
carrying out a diagnostics check as water may be sprayed from the
container.
The unit will then start an installation diagnostics sequence. The diagnostics will take
approximately 15 minutes to complete. A progress bar is shown to indicate the progress
of the tests. This is not an indication of time.
Once complete and assuming no problems the generator will take a further 5 minutes
to become ready for use. The screen will change to the main screen and indicate
“Normal Operation”
CAUTION
Allow the generator to run for a further 30 minutes before connecting
to the application as this will purge any impurities from the system.
Failure to do this may harm the application.should be allowed to run
for 1 hour to allow the gas to reach purity.
The Generator is now purged and the tubes can be connected at the rear of the unit.
Page 18
CAUTION
Ensure that the correct output ports on the Generator are connected
to the correct input ports on the application. Failure to do so will result
in the wrong type of gas at the wrong pressure being delivered and
could harm the application.
CAUTION
Once the tubes are connected to the appliance, ensure that they are
thoroughly checked for being leak-tight. Even the slightest leak in the
gas supply between the Generator and the application can lead to a
reduction in efficiency, or possible alarm of the Generator.
The diagnostics sequence will only run on subsequent start-ups if there was a problem
detected before it was shut down. If no fault had previously been detected and the
installation diagnostics has been completed, a start-up screen will appear for 30
seconds to allow the user to initiate a diagnostics check. This is recommended if the
unit has been turned off for a long period or the generator has been moved.
Normal Operation
The Genius NM-3G Gas Generators are designed specifically to minimize operator
involvement. Given that the systems are installed as described in earlier sections and is
serviced in accordance with the specified maintenance recommendations (see Service
Requirements), then it should simply be a matter of turning the Generator on when it is
required.
The Generator will automatically produce the factory set flow and pressure as detailed
in the Technical Specifications.
On Demand Gas
The generator will produce nitrogen on demand. If the application is operating
and requires a gas flow, the system it is connected to will supply this to suit the
requirements of the application. If the application requirement for gas stops, the system
will also stop, once it has reached its upper set limit in the internal storage tanks. If the
demand from the application starts again, the system will detect the demand for gas
and will automatically start again to suit the demand.
Generator Cycling
The Generator is designed for the internal compressors to cycle. This cycling reduces
the duty (run time) on the compressors. The rate at which they cycle will be dependent
on the gas required to satisfy the demand of the application. If the application demands
the maximum gas flow of the Generator, the compressor duty will be higher, (the rest
period in the compressor cycle will be shorter). If the application demand is lower than
the maximum gas flow, then the duty on the compressors will decrease, (the rest period
in the compressor cycle will be longer). If the Generator is installed in an extreme
environment or is subjected to low supply voltage or high altitude the compressors may
undergo periods where they do not cycle.
Unusual Operation
If at any time the generator begins to emit excessive noise or vibration, then it should
be switched off and you should contact Peak Scientific or the Peak Partner from which
the generator has been purchased.
Page 19
Fault Warning
Should the unit detect a fault, a message will be displayed on the HMI to explain the
fault and inform the user of the current status of the machine. There are three levels of
fault.
•
Minor fault
•
Redundancy mode
•
System failure
A minor fault is shown when one of the valves used during diagnostics has failed.
These are set to fail in the normal operating mode therefore the system can function
as normal. You should contact your service provider to rectify the problem at your
convenience
Redundancy mode is likely to indicate a failed compressor. The unit will continue to run
with the remaining two compressors. An intermittent audible alarm will also sound to
alert the user. This alarm can be silenced.
A system failure means that the unit can no longer supply gas and will be shut down.
An audible alarm will sound constantly to alert the user. This can be silenced.
Once the fault message has been acknowledged by the user an icon will be displayed
on the main screen as a reminder.
Page 20
Connecting to the application
Once the initial purge run of 30 minutes has completed, and the generator has been
running for 1 hour, it is ready to be connected to the application(s).
The pressure in the internal storage tanks must be allowed to dissipate
before connecting the generator to the application(s)
CAUTION
Attach the appropriate fittings to the outlets of the generator. Using the tubing
supplied, connect the outlets of the generator to the inlets on the application.
If you require more tubing than is supplied please refer to the Tubing Lengths section.
CAUTION
Once the tubing is connected to the application, please ensure that it
is thoroughly checked for being leak-tight. Even the slightest leak in
the gas supply between the generator and the application can lead to
a reduction in efficiency.
Tubing Lengths
CAUTION
The diameter of the tubing which will be connected to the gas outlet is
important and is determined by the length of tubing required. Failure
to follow these recommendations could lead to pressure between
generator and application.
< 10 meters:
Use 6/4 (6mm O/D, 4mm I/D) P.T.F.E. tubing.
> 10 - 40 meters:
Use 10/8 (10mm O/D, 8mm I/D). Tubing and fittings not
supplied in the fittings kit.
> 40 metres:
Please contact Peak Scientific with the relevant distance andwe
will calculate the flow resistance and the tubing size required.
A combination of 6/4 and 10/8 tubing may be used to ensure that there is no large
diameter tubing within the lab (i.e. for the first 20 meters from the Generator use 10/8
and the final 10 meters to the application use 6/4 tubing). Keep the connections and
bends to a minimum.
The imperial equivalents are: 6/4 = 1/4” O/D, 3/16” I/D.
10/8 = 3/8” O/D, 5/16” I/D.

You have 1 month to register your Peak Scientific product from the date of
installation. Once registered the warranty will be honoured for a period of 12
months. If you wish to defer the installation of your generator, you must notify
Peak Scientific immediately by emailing warranty@peakscientific.com. For
generators that remain unregistered after 1 month from the shipment date, the
warranty will be considered active from the date of factory dispatch.
