N2 Generator Calculation
The Pre-Engineered Nitrogen Generator is designed to facilitate the Dry Pipe Nitrogen Inerting (DPNI)
process for controlling oxygen corrosion in dry and preaction fire sprinkler systems, and provides
supervisory maintenance gas. Designed for “plug and play” performance in a typical dry or preaction
fire sprinkler system, the nitrogen generator utilizes membrane separation technology that produces
98%+ nitrogen on demand without the need for nitrogen storage
The Nitrogen Generator can be used to provide DPNI for single or multiple zones depending on: the
number of systems, the volume of the largest system, and the cumulative volume of all systems being
supplied. The generator includes an internal bypass valve to allow for maintenance or “fast fill” needs
to meet the NFPA 13 30-minute fill requirement for dry pipe and pre-action fire protection systems
The Nitrogen Generator is designed to nitrogen inert all of the zones being served within 14 days.
Thereafter, will continue to automatically provide supervisory nitrogen gas sufficient for
pressure maintenance of the fire sprinkler system(s).
The Nitrogen Generator facilitates the patented “fill and purge” breathing process in the fire sprinkler
system when paired with an oxygen removal vent installed on the sprinkler riser such as the Tyco
Manual Air Vent (TAV-D) or the Tyco SMART Vent (TSV-D)

The Tyco Nitrogen Generator (NG-1 Series) consist of three (3) types: Wall-Mount Nitrogen Generator
Series, Skid-Mount Nitrogen Generator and Stand-Alone Nitrogen Generator Series.
Wall-Mount Nitrogen Generators: NG-1 100, NG-1 250 and NG-1 500
Skid-Mount Nitrogen Generators: NG-1 1000
Stand-Alone Nitrogen Generators: NG-1 1150, NG-1 1500, NG-1 2000 and NG-1 3000
D. Air Compressor
Tyco quality small piston compressors offer proven technology that offers an economical and
dependable compressed air solution for commercial, automotive and light industrial applications.
Reciprocating air compressors are ideal when reliable performance is defined by maximum operating
pressure, increased air flow and extended duty cycles.
E. Tyco Air Vent System
The Tyco Air Vent provides oxygen venting in wet and dry pipe fire sprinkler systems. As a fire sprinkler
system is filled with a continuous supply of nitrogen gas from the Tyco Nitrogen Generator System, the
Tyco Air Vent allows oxygen rich gas to be vented from the fire sprinkler system. Over a short period of
time the Tyco Protector Manual Vent will almost completely remove oxygen from the fire sprinkler
system (< 2% oxygen).
The Tyco Air Vent must be installed as shown on the engineering design documents. If a location is not
specified install the Tyco Air Vent on the fire sprinkler system riser on the system side of the main
control valve of Dry-Pipe & Preaction System or install at the system high points of wet pipe sprinkler
system. The vent is also installed to provide source gas when used in conjunction with the Tyco Gas
Analyzer
The Tyco Air Vent in conjunction with Tyco Nitrogen Generator System able to achieve a minimum
nitrogen concentration of 98%.
E.1. TAV-D Manual Air Vent – Dry Pipe Nitrogen Inerting (DPNI)
The Tyco Manual Air Vent is equipped with a levered float valve that allows oxygen to discharge but
prevents liquid water from leaking through the restricted venting orifice in the event that water enters
the fire sprinkler system. A backpressure regulator is also included to prevent total system
depressurization from the vent assembly.
The restricted venting orifice allows oxygen to be vented from the fire sprinkler system at a controlled
rate to achieve a minimum nitrogen concentration of 98%. A special fitting is provided to receive 5/32”
tubing when the vent is used in conjunction with the Tyco Protector Permanent Gas Analyzer. After 14
days as the desired nitrogen con-centration will have been achieved, the isolation ball valve shall be
close manually.
F. N2 Gas Analyzer
F.1 Manual Gas Analyzer (THGA)
The Tyco Model THGA Handheld Gas Analyzer provides the concentration of nitrogen gas when
connected to a Tyco Nitrogen Generator System with a gas sample port. The Handheld Gas Analyzer is
used to verify nitrogen concentration inside a fire sprinkler system or at the outlet of a Tyco Nitrogen
Generator. The handheld Gas Analyzer is a simple, cost effective method of gas concentration
monitoring. The Handheld Gas Analyzer is small, convenient, and portable with one touch calibration
and is compatible with all Tyco Nitrogen Generators.
Drawing layout, Isometric layout and calculation reports are the responsibility of the
contractor/distributor. Tyco personnel are available to review and suggest improvements as required
