Factors affecting the price of argon purifier

How much does an argon purifier cost? The argon purifier has become an indispensable part of the direct reading spectrometer. The argon purifier ensures the purity of the argon gas, meets the excitation effect of the sample test point, and can prevent the argon impurities from contaminating the optical devices in the argon-filled light chamber. Whether in large steel enterprises or small foundry laboratories, we can see the argon purifier supporting the direct reading spectrometer.

The argon purifier has different prices because of the different purification processes it uses, the different purification materials used, and the different manufacturing costs; this is defined on the premise that there is no problem with the quality; the impurities that need to be removed for deoxidation, dehydration, denitrogenation, dehydrogenation, etc. are different.

1: The argon gas purifier price is affected by the process of the argon purifier:

The purification process of the argon purifier:

1,High-temperature getter process, this machine is filled with high-temperature getter (the so-called precious metal), and the service life of this argon purifier is very short when the purity of the raw gas (999.99%) cannot be guaranteed. Since this precious metal high-temperature getter absorbs all impurities in argon, its purification degree is deep. The argon purifier of this process is often used to purify argon to more than 99.9999%, but it needs to frequently replace the purification column.

2. Normal temperature catalysis + normal temperature adsorbent process. The catalytic tower of this process is filled with metal catalysts, which can be used at room temperature. However, the metal catalyst needs to be hydrogenated and regenerated before leaving the factory.

After the goods are sent to the user's site for use, the deoxygenation effect is poor. Generally, the manufacturer needs to return the goods to the factory for reduction or the user needs to hydrogenate and regenerate them by himself. Since hydrogen is more dangerous, users are generally not willing to use hydrogen for regeneration.

3. Low temperature catalysis + normal temperature adsorbent process. The catalytic tower of this process is filled with catalysts that react with oxygen. Generally, the catalyst in the catalytic tower reacts with oxygen and is converted into impurities adsorbed by the adsorption tower. This process does not require hydrogenation and regeneration, and is ideal for applications where the argon purification requirement is not higher than 99.9995%.

2. The argon gas purifier price is affected by the operation mode of argon purifier:

Operation mode of argon purifier: manual or fully automatic

Argon purifier has been gradually upgraded from the initial manual operation to semi-automatic. Now, most manufacturers have only produced fully automatic argon purifiers. Fully automatic argon purifiers avoid human error and the situation that the company cannot operate the equipment after changing operators.

Fully automatic is divided into ordinary type and touch screen fully automatic. The advantage of touch screen fully automatic is that parameters can be adjusted on the touch screen, such as being able to modify the manual switching function on the touch screen, and the length of the regeneration cycle can also be adjusted on the touch screen. Ordinary fully automatic does not have these functions.

Fully automatic touch argon purifier is now the first choice of many companies, but the price will be slightly higher than the manual argon purifier.

3. The argon gas purifier price is affected by the purification material manufacturer in the argon purifier:

The quality of the purification material in the argon purifier directly determines the life of the argon purifier. Of course, the service life and purification efficiency of high-quality purification materials are better.

In summary: When the technical parameters of the argon purifier are not much different, we can compare the prices based on the purification process, operation method, material brand, etc. of the argon purifier. Using this method, you can definitely choose the argon purifier that suits you best, and you don’t have to worry about how much an argon purifier costs.
