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 is affected by ambient conditions. Please note that the
generator’s function is primarily to remove Oxygen and Moisture from the generated
Nitrogen and/ or Dry Air. Though, depending on model, some hydrocarbon technology
may be employed by the generator, in environments with high ambient concentrations
of THC additional THC removal filtration may be required, or service life of integrated
THC traps may be significantly reduced. 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 100mm (3.9”) should be maintained down both sides
and at the rear of the unit. Please refer to the drawing on the following page for the
general dimensions of the unit.
Please ensure Generator is situated in a well ventilated environment and is positioned to
allow easy disconnection from the mains supply if required.
Please ensure generator is positined in such a way that it can be easily disconnected
from the mains if necessary.
Minimum Operating Ambient Temperature:

5 °C (41 °F)

Maximum Operating Ambient Temperature:

30 °C (86 °F)

Inlet Air Quality
The Nitrogen Generator should be connected to an ISO 8573-1:2010 (1:4:1) source of
compressed air. A minimum pressure of 60 Psig is required for efficient operation of
the Generator. Any doubts as to the suitability of your compressed air supply should be
referred to the factory for advice.
A MAXIMUM OIL VAPOUR CONTENT OF 0.01 mg per m^3 is PERMISSIBLE
Air Inlet, Nitrogen Outlet and Air outlet connections are at the rear of the generator. The
Air inlet connection is a 16mm Push-Fit Fitting. Outlet ports for both Air and Nitrogen are
12mm Push-Fit Fitting, with optional depressurising valves included in the fittings kit for
the nitrogen outlet. The Drain Outlet is a 6mm Push-Fit Fitting.

WARNING

Changing settings within this enclosure may adversely affect the
operation of the generator. This enclosure should not be accessed
unless by or under direct instruction from a trained individual.

If an appropriate mains power cords is not supplied or a substitute one is used then
ensure that all components of it the plug, cord and connector have adequate ratings
for the generator and appropriate approvals for the country of use. Failure to do so
could cause damage to the generator or risk overloading of the power cord.

Page 18

Normal Operation
The Infinity XE 60 Series 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 produce gas depending on the purity setting at point of installation
and detected flow/pressure of inlet compressed air.

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. 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. If
the unit has been fitted with the optional Dry Air output, the same principle applies to
both N2 and Air outlets.

Eco Mode
When demand from the instrument stops, Infinity XE60 generator will stop demanding
air from the external compressor. If demand from the application starts again, the
system will detect the demand for gas and will automatically start up again. Please
note this does not apply if there is a nitrogen demand from instruments during standby mode. If your instruments take a nitrogen flow during stand-by mode, the Infinity
XE 60 generator will continue to have to draw compressed air to satisfy the demand.
The generator constantly monitors the flows and pressures within the system and can
make calculations on optimal operating conditions based on the flow and pressure
demand from the application. XE60 generators fitted with two or more membranes
are able ‘shut down’ certain membranes in order to save supply air. The generator
calculates when the optimal number of membranes to use for the measured flow and
pressure, meaning it can instantly shut down or turn back on membranes to react to
the change in demand. This helps save wasted gas from purging through the unused
membranes during low demand periods.

Page 19

Commissioning
With the generator installed as previously described, connect the application to the
Nitrogen output port and open the air supply to the unit. On reaching operational
pressure the generator will produce Nitrogen at the customer-specified purity. The
design of the generator is such that it will deliver up to the rated output flow of
Nitrogen, determined by demand of the consuming equipment. Rated flow, purity
and pressure are installation specific and dependent on inlet conditions being met as
detailed on the individual generator
The design of the generator is that it will deliver variable purity dependant on the
inlet pressure and outlet flow rate. Outlet pressure may be adjusted by the pressure
regulator inside the unit, allowing for up to 15 psi pressure drop across the system.
Should the demand for the nitrogen stop, the generator will automatically go into
"eco-mode" (refer to page 18), shutting off the air inlet. Once the demand restarts
the generator automatically resumes producing Nitrogen. If the generator has been
fitted with the optional Dry Air output, the same operating principle applies to the Air
output. The generator is protected from over pressurising and will experience a safety
valve offload if internal pressure reach above 145Psi.

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 - 40 meters:

Use 12/10 (12mm O/D, 10mm I/D) Tubing.

> 40 metres:
Please contact Peak Scientific with the relevant distance
andwe

will calculate the flow resistance and the
tubing size required.
The imperial equivalents are: 12/10 = 1/2” O/D, 3/8” I/D.
Air input tubing is not supplied. 16mm OD, 12mm ID PTFE Tubing is recommended.

Page 20

HMI Screens
Normal Operation
When the generator is powered on it will show the following screens until a system
check has been performed.

The checks will last a few seconds then the HMI will show the home screen. Customers
can view two screens at this stage.

Home Screen

This shows live system pressures.

Information Screen
The toggle arrows allow the user to view the two following information screens.

The initial information screen indicates the total number of membranes in the system
and which membranes are currently activated. The above screen shows a four membrane system (XE6040) and highlights the activated membranes with a green box.
This screen will also indicate the maximum flow of nitrogen that can be taken whilst
achieving the set purity.
Page 21

The second information screen shows details on service timeline and program versions.

Settings Screen
These screens allow the user to toggle between different flow and purity measurement units. These can be set to the users personal preference at any time.

To change simply select the unit and then select confirm when prompted.

Page 22

System Icons
System icons will show in the top right of the screen and give indications on running
conditions, faults or service alarms. A ‘tick’ icon in the top right indicates normal running conditions with no faults or service requirements.

‘Eco’ mode

Depending on output flows the generator will shut down membranes in order to save
house air. The generator constantly monitors the optimal number of membranes vs
output flow and when the flow is lowered it will begin to close of the feed to certain
membranes. When the demand is increased it will react by turning on any ‘shut down’
membranes. When a generator is running at purity with one or more membranes ‘shut
down’, a green leaf icon will appear on the screen.

Cleaning
Clean the outside of the generator only using warm soapy water and a clean damp
cloth. Ensure all excess fluid is thoroughly removed from the cloth prior to use.
Cleaning should only be undertaken with the power switched off and
the power cord removed from the rear of the generator.

CAUTION

Under no circumstances should any solvents or abrasive cleaning
solutions be used as these can contain fumes that could be harmful to
the generator.
Care should be taken with Leak Detections Liquids.

CAUTION

The unit is in a safely isolated condition when it is disconnected from its application
and fully de-pressurised. Directions for isolating the Generator are shown below.

WARNING

Failure to place the Generator in a safely isolated condition when
instructed to do so may lead to personal injury or injury to others and
even death.

1. Switch generator off.
2. Disconnect from air supply.
3. Ensure the output pressure gauge reads zero. (If gauge does not fall to zero, open
the manual ball valve at the outlet port, to allow trapped gas to escape.)
4. Disconnect from the application.

Safe State After Repair

conditions are met;
•

All earth leads have been reconnected.
Earth leads should be connected to the earth tabs located on the door panels, as
shown below.

•

The electricity cable has been correctly refitted.
The mains cable should be plugged into the IEC power inlet located on the rear
panel of the generator. This unit is classified as SAFETY CLASS 1. THIS UNIT MUST
