A continuous duty device that converts facility gas into stable low pressure Liquid Nitrogen automatically for several years without maintenance or operator intervention. A 40-liter vacuum insulated tank stores the daily production (20-50 lpd). Touch Screen (HMI) and PLC controls provide for reliable and safe operation, with the KIC built-in auto-delivery system. LN2 is delivered to the customer’s dewar and as easy as decanting tap water. Several options allows for a variety of applications.

OPTIONS
- Connecting to a tool or laboratory device
KIC Engineers are eager to help customer determine the appropriate interfaces to connect to any laboratory device including SEM, NMR, Bio-Storage Refrigerators, or any LN2 charging device. In the event that the automatic feature is already included with the separation, filler resistance and other modes of operation, the interface will only require cable and documentation. In addition, the M50 can be configured in a lower plane or with VJ transfer lines and return gas heater.
- Convert to a liquid Nitrogen generator
The connection to the tool or the laboratory device The model M50 can be converted from a condenser to a full generation feature by adding an optional storage space containing the compressed air compressor, to 99.0-99.9% PSA Nitrogen gas generator, and recirculator cooling, utilities with the exception of electric power. The safety assistant must be used outside the clean room and in an area where good ventilation (<35 ° C) is available to remove the 3 kW heater.
- Delivery lines LN2
The standard offering is a 0.375-inch diameter Swagelok bulkhead fitting on either side of the unit (customer to select) near the front. Vacuum Jacketed transfer lines are also available. Consult with the KIC Engineers to select the type, length, and enclosure arrangement. Two VJ lines are used in bio-laboratories for distribution along a line of cascading tanks. The Enhanced Model requires a chiller.ater.
