Description
The U.S. Navy is seeking a brand name Generon membrane nitrogen gas generator to convert dry, unfiltered, compressed air to nitrogen gas to supply a test rig. The generator must meet specific technical requirements, including a minimum membrane life of 10 years, a nitrogen discharge gas flowrate of 240 SCFM, and a purity level of 96% to 99%. The generator will be installed indoors within a 3 ft. x 6 ft. footprint. The contract will be awarded to the vendor that submits the lowest, firm fixed-price quotation that meets all the requirements.
Key features of the required generator include:
• Minimum membrane life of 10 years at 100% duty cycle
• Nitrogen discharge gas flowrate of 240 SCFM at 96% purity level
• Fully automated control of purity levels from 96% to 99% based on user adjustable setpoint input
• Minimum flowrate of 100 SCFM at 99% purity level for inlet pressure of 115 psig
• Flowrate adjusts automatically to meet demand
• Nitrogen gas discharge flow compatible with continuous, intermittent, or fluctuating flow demand and variable downstream pressure between 0 and 150 psig
