3. Technical Description
The nano-purification solutions Breathing Air Module (NBM) is designed for use in existing
systems where a properly maintained desiccant dryer and appropriate filtration is already
installed. For a complete purifier package, please refer to the B1 Series Compressed
Breathing Air Purifiers, or contact nano-purification solutions before proceeding. When used
in the appropriate system, the NBM Purifier Modules are designed to provide a continuous
supply range of breathable air to meet the most exacting standards world-wide. The design
incorporates several stages of purification in one simple to service cartridge, reducing the
cost of ownership and simplifying maintenance.
Atmospheric air contains a number of contaminants which must be removed to ensure
the provision of high purity breathable air. Contaminants present include dirt, water, oil,
hydrocarbon vapors, bacteria and toxic gases such as CO, NO
2
and SO
2
.
The nano breathing air module is a static adsorber, which employs two purification stages to
ensure breathable compressed air is produced from a typical compressed air supply.
The purifier
must
be preceded by inlet filtration which removes dirt, bulk water and oil
aerosols and a heatless desiccant air dryer which delivers air to -40
o
F pressure dewpoint.
For advice on the required inlet air quality of the purifier please refer to the specification on
page 7 or contact Nano Purification Solutions.
The purifier removes HydroCarbon Vapors and reduces CO
to specified levels through
adsorbent and catalyst stages contained within removable cartridges. The cartridges
are non-regenerative and should be replaced periodically inline with the product service
schedule on page 17.
