Description:
The Nuvair Nitrox System uses semi permeable membranes to produce O2 rich
air (Nitrox). The Nitrox at up to 40% O2 can then be compressed with an oil
lubricated high-pressure compressor into scuba bottles or storage tanks for later
use or with a low-pressure compressor for immediate delivery to divers.
The NUVAIR membrane system is up to 20% more efficient and easier to use
than other systems on the market when producing 40% O2 and can produce
almost double the volume of the old Nuvair system at 32% O2. This can mean
saving ££ on the low pressure compressor and membrane as a smaller size may
handle the same job.
The system requires an air source to supply air to the membrane for separation.
This air source (supply air) can be from high-pressure storage tanks or from a
low-pressure compressor. First, the supply air pressure must be reduced to
80-300 PSI for use in the membrane. A regulator is used to adjust the input
pressure and volume of Nitrox to be made. After the regulator the air travels

through filtration to ensure a proper air quality that will not damage or plug the
membrane fibers. After the filtration the air is heated to a stable temperature
that is constant and optimal for the membrane permeation. This temperature is
about 110 degrees F. After the heater the air enters the membrane.
The membrane is made up of thousands of hollow fibers. Oxygen permeates
faster than nitrogen through these fibers. At the nitrogen outlet there is a fixed
orifice that will allow the right amount of nitrogen to escape at maximum output
to produce about 44% O2 at the permeate outlet (O2 rich gas). The permeate
exits the membrane into a static mixing tube that allows ambient air to mix with
permeate. The gas mixture is then analyzed with an inline sensor before delivery
to the compressor for compression. As the operator increases the input pressure
on the regulator, the volume of Nitrox produced is increased as well as the O2%
of the total gas mix. Decreasing input pressure will lower the Nitrox O2% mix.
After using your Nitrox system you will notice that different O2 percentages
match certain input pressures. These input pressures will be repeatable. Simply
said, if today your compressor pumps 36% O2 when the input pressure to the
membrane system is at 126 PSI. The next time you want to produce 36% O2, just
adjust the pressure to 126 PSI.
