Dear all,
I am using Sullair air compressor having model number is Model Number : LS100-30HH/A
According to its manual it can provide air at flow rate of 3.99m3/minute.
I want to install Carbotech Nitrogen generator whose capacity to generate Nitrogen is 35Nm3/hour.
Can anyone help me in calculating whether this air compressor can run the above Nitrogen generator or not.
According to my calculation
Air is composed of 78% Nitrogen, so 35Nm3/hour is the 78% of Nitrogen generator input. Using this assumption we can calculate
35/0.78 = 44.87 (Approx 45)
So, Nitrogen Generator required 45Nm3/hour of compressed air to generate 35Nm3/hour of Nitrogen.
Air Compressor capacity in one hour is
3.99 x 60 = 239.4 m3/hour
It can be concluded that less than 20% of compressed air from compressor is consumed to operate Nitrogen generator on its full efficiency.
