Corona Nitrogen 1010 nitrogen generator: stable performance for analytical chromatography
The Peak Scientific Corona Nitrogen 1010 nitrogen generator has been developed to meet the strict requirements of Thermo Fisher Scientific's Corona Veo CAD charged aerosol detectors, as well as Dionex ERS/Vanquish CAD systems. This generator produces a constant flow of laboratory-grade nitrogen at up to 5 litres per minute, with a purity of over 98%. It is designed for laboratories that require a reliable carrier gas for their LC, HPLC or UHPLC analyses.
The membrane technology used in the Corona 1010 is proven and enables continuous gas production on demand, avoiding interruptions in the workflow. Thanks to its modular design, the device can be ordered as a stand-alone unit if the laboratory already has an external air supply, or combined with a stackable compressor for a complete, self-contained solution. This makes it particularly flexible and adaptable to the layout of the facilities and the resources available.
Start-up is fast, taking only five minutes, and the unit remains silent during operation, with zero noise levels. Its compact size (156 x 417 x 540 mm) allows for easy integration even in confined spaces. The system is designed to operate at a maximum pressure of 80 psi (5.5 bar), with a minimum inlet pressure of 110 psi (7.6 bar), ensuring optimal performance every time.
The nitrogen produced complies with ISO 8753-1:2010 Class 1.4.1 for inlet air quality, making it a reliable solution for sensitive analytical environments. The Corona Nitrogen 1010 operates on a power supply of 100 to 230 V, with a maximum power consumption of 23 VA, making it an energy-efficient device. It is suitable for both small laboratories and larger analytical platforms.
Its ability to adapt to various chromatography instruments makes it a valuable tool for analysts seeking stability, accuracy and continuity in gas supply. The unit has also been designed to meet low maintenance requirements thanks to its user-friendly technology. The flow rate is automatically adjusted according to the demand of the connected instrument, enabling streamlined and efficient operation, limiting waste and optimising gas consumption.
This generator therefore offers a concrete solution for laboratories seeking a dedicated, constant and controlled source of nitrogen, while optimising analytical performance.
