Laboratory Air Systems Product Selection Guide

Product catalog summary

Product Overview
Laboratory Air Systems are designed to minimize noise and footprint through enclosed systems packaged in sound enclosure cabinets. These systems are customized for laboratory applications and utilize oil-less scroll pump technology. The product guide includes specification charts to assist in selecting the appropriate system.

System Design Features
The design includes multiple compressors, an ASME receiver, a premium NFPA control panel, an air purification system, a dew point monitor, and all necessary interconnecting piping and wiring. Vibration isolation pads and flex connectors are also included. The systems are manufactured in ISO 9001 UL certified facilities and feature built-in redundancy in multiplex systems.

Control Panel Features
The standard premium NFPA control panel includes a PLC controller and HMI touch screen for operating status display. It is UL508A listed and features visual and audible alarms for system overload, high temperature, and service intervals. The panel door includes alarms, an HOA switch for each pump, and a 3-position dryer switch. An integrated dew point monitor provides readings and alarms.

Technology and Innovation
The oil-less scroll technology introduced by Powerex in 1989 offers a reliable and maintenance-friendly design with few moving parts. The compressors feature compact footprints, energy-efficient operation, and environmentally friendly design. Innovations include durable cast iron bearings, a patented bearing re-grease feature, and a patented tip seal design for high flow rates and longevity.

Compression Principle
The orbiting scroll compresses air by reducing a crescent-shaped cavity, exhausting it through a discharge point at the center.

Product Models
Simplex and Duplex systems are available with varying SCFM and horsepower ratings. Multiplex systems include premium NFPA controls and have built-in redundancy capabilities.

Available Options
Options include a premium warranty, CO monitor, remote intake, moisture separators, and more. Desiccant air dryer packages and accessories such as sterile filters and seismic spring mounts are also available.

Air Receiver Specifications
The system includes an ASME air receiver rated for 200 PSI MAWP, equipped with a pressure gauge, safety relief valve, by-pass valves, sight gauge, and an automatic electronic tank drain. The receiver is internally lined with FDA-approved material for corrosion resistance.
