About this file

This is a Request for Salient Characteristics dated 5/27/26 for a nitrogen generator system. The requirement type includes salient characteristics and is listed as "Brand Name or Equal" procurement, with salience characteristics included marked as "Yes" and sole source designation blank. The requesting department specifies the LNI Swissgas NGA CASTORE XL iQ 40.40 or equal as the required equipment.

The specified system must be a single, self-contained laboratory gas generator with integrated oil-less compressor that provides simultaneous nitrogen and dry-air outputs without requiring facility compressed air. Minimum performance specifications include: nitrogen output of 40 L/min with LCMS-grade purity up to 99.9%, outlet pressure of 8 bar/116 psi (220–240 VAC) or 7.5 bar/108 psi (115–240 VAC), dry-air output of minimum 40 L/min, dry-air outlet pressure matching nitrogen specifications, dry-air dew point of -40°C, operating noise ≤50 dB(A), unit footprint not exceeding 59 cm W × 92 cm D × 73 cm H, local touchscreen controls with remote monitoring via RS485/RS232/Ethernet, maximum power draw of 2.0 kW (220–240 VAC) or 1.7 kW (115–240 VAC), integrated or compatible UHP nitrogen output of 200 cc/min at ≥99.9999% purity, and integrated scroll compressor with variable speed technology. Assembly/setup is required. Warranty covers fifteen months from shipment for defects in material and workmanship for calibrators, mixers, and sensors. Deliverables include the NGA CASTORE XL 40.40 unit, NG(A) CASTORE XS/XL installation kit, NG CASTORE XL filter elements, and onsite startup and training. Delivery is required ASAP with unclassified security classification. Technical points of contact are Dr. Lining Qi or Mr. Nathan Gargas, with Dr. Lining Qi as the end user point of contact.

Text28: Nitrogen and dry-air generator for LC-MS applications, LNI Swissgas NGA CASTORE XL iQ 40.40 or equal.

Offered system shall be a single, self-contained laboratory gas generator with integrated oil-less compressor and shall not require facility compressed air for normal operation. The system shall provide simultaneous nitrogen and dry-air outputs meeting the following minimum requirements:

1. Nitrogen output: minimum 40 L/min, LCMS-grade nitrogen, purity up to 99.9% or documented equivalent suitable for LC-MS operation.

2. Nitrogen outlet pressure: minimum 8 bar / 116 psi for 220–240 VAC configuration, or minimum 7.5 bar / 108 psi if universal 115–240 VAC configuration is required.

3. Dry-air output: minimum 40 L/min.

4. Dry-air outlet pressure: minimum 8 bar / 116 psi for 220–240 VAC configuration, or minimum 7.5 bar / 108 psi if universal 115–240 VAC configuration is required.

5. Dry-air dew point: ≤ -40°C atmospheric dew point.

6. Operating noise: ≤50 dB(A).

7. Unit footprint: not greater than approximately 59 cm W × 92 cm D × 73 cm H.

8. Controls and monitoring: local touchscreen or equivalent user interface showing system status, pressure/status diagnostics, alarms or pre-alarms; remote start/stop or status monitoring capability via RS485, RS232, digital I/O, Ethernet, or equivalent.

9. Electrical: maximum power draw not to exceed 2.0 kW for 220–240 VAC or 1.7 kW for 115–240 VAC full-range configuration.

10. Integrated or directly compatible UHP nitrogen output capable of at least 200 cc/min at ≥99.9999% nitrogen purity, without reducing the main nitrogen/dry-air outputs below required values.

11. Integrated scroll compressor with variable speed technology to preserve power consumption and reduce wear on the compressor system which extends the maintenance interval on the compressor.
