Normal Operation – Loss of Pressure
Nitrogen is generated by the NitroPro and retained in the storage
tank. Nitrogen generation stops when this tank fills to the specified
design pressure.
The pressure in the NitroPro storage tank may drop after extended
non-use (over night for example). This is normal, and is similar to
air compressors that will periodically cycle on to replenish pressure
lost in the air storage tank and attached delivery system.
Permeation through service hoses, fill nozzles, valves and other
components directly associated with nitrogen generation is to be
expected, and does not impact normal operation.
It may take a few minutes to replenish the pressure in the storage
tank to maximum next time the NitroPro is used. This is normal.
