GAS PURIFICATION ESSENTIALS
Gas Generators
Parker Balston® Model FID-1000 and FID-2500 Gas Stations
• Single unit produces UHP zero air from house compressed air and
99.9995% pure hydrogen from deionized water.
• Ideal for supplying up to 5-6 FIDs.
• Eliminates inconvenient and dangerous gas cylinders.
• Silent operation, minimal operator attention required.
Parker Balston® Gas Stations provide both UHP grade hydrogen gas and
zero grade air for flame ionization detectors. The system is specifically
designed to supply gas to FIDs and to support flame thermionic and
flame photometric detectors. The units produce zero air by purifying
compressed air to a total hydrocarbon concentration of 0.1 ppm or less
(measured as methane).
The hydrogen generators produce hydrogen gas from deionized water,
using the principle of electrolytic dissociation of water and hydrogen
proton conduction through a proton exchange membrane cell.

Baseline: Bottled Fuel Air
Baseline: FID-2500 Gas Station
Compare baselines produced by
a Parker Balston® FID Gas Station
and bottled fuel air. The baseline
produced by the Parker Balston®
Generator is flat, with no fluctua-
tions or peaks; the chromatogram
from the bottled air fuel supply
has many peaks ranging from
0.25 ppm to -0.25 ppm total
hydrocarbons.
