The Parker Balston N2 Generator Marine produces on‑board nitrogen using a pressure swing adsorption (PSA) system to supply high‑purity (≥99.5%) inert gas for cargo tank inerting and O₂ monitoring. As a Nitrogen Generator (PSA), it is normally installed in the exhaust-gas or tanker cargo-support plant with fans or blowers, treatment vessels, pumps, monitoring and control equipment. In that role, its primary purpose is to clean exhaust gas or provide a controlled low-oxygen or inert atmosphere according to the listed system. Scrubbers, flue-gas inert systems, nitrogen generators and inert-gas generators use different processes, so treatment chemistry, gas quality and safety interlocks remain system-specific. Capacity: variable — 50-500 Nm3/h N2. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.

For marine equipment hardly any maker or authorised dealer will name a price while the vessel is unknown. With the vessel details, availability and price can be settled faster; without them we may have to ask first, which costs a few days. If you are not allowed to name the vessel, a photo of the rating plate is enough — attach it below or send it as a reply to our confirmation e-mail.
