Small Cryogenic Air Separation Unit
Product Overview
Small Cryogenic Air Separation Unit (ASU) is pre-assembled, skid-mounted gas generation system designed to produce high-purity oxygen and nitrogen on-site. Using low-temperature cryogenic distillation, this compact unit eliminate liquid gas transport costs and deliver a stable, continuous gas supply for industrial plants, chemical facilities, and electronics manufacturing.

FAQ
Q: What is the typical lead time for a small cryogenic air separation unit?
A: Standard modular units require 90 to 120 days for manufacturing, factory testing, and export packaging. Custom pressure configurations or dual-liquid systems may vary based on technical requirements.
Q: How does a cryogenic ASU compare to a PSA system?
A: Cryogenic units are ideal when high gas purity (99.6% oxygen or 99.999% nitrogen) or liquid gas is required. PSA systems are generally limited to lower purity levels (around 95% oxygen). Cryogenic units also offer lower unit power costs for continuous, large-volume production.
Q: Can the unit produce both oxygen and nitrogen at the same time?
A: Yes. The cryogenic distillation column can be engineered to generate high-purity oxygen and nitrogen simultaneously according to your site requirements.
Q: What foundation and utilities are required on site?
A: The buyer needs to prepare a level concrete foundation pad, main electric power connection, and cooling water supply. Civil work is minimal due to the skid-mounted design.
Q: Do you provide installation and commissioning support overseas?
A: Yes. We send experienced engineers to your site to supervise installation, perform system testing, complete commissioning, and train local staff.
Q: What details are needed to receive an accurate quote?
A: Please provide required gas output (oxygen or nitrogen), flow rate (Nm3/h), required outlet pressure (MPa), purity targets, local power voltage/frequency, and installation site location.
Q: How are maintenance and spare parts handled internationally?
A: Core electrical and control components use globally accessible standard brands like Siemens and Schneider. Replacement parts can be shipped globally via express air freight alongside 24/7 remote engineering support.
