Nitrogen Generator Installation in a Winery

Another successful project executed by IESco!

1. INMATEC Nitrogen Generator in one of the largest wineries

2. EKOMAK screw compressors with a capacity of 8 m³/h;

3. Italian-made CALYPSO dryers;

4. Italian-made CND inline filters: 3mic-0.1mic-0.01mic-0.003mic-water separator;

5. Compressed air tanks totaling 7000 liters at 10 bar;

Connection – with Italian-made aluminum pipes and fittings

At one of Georgia’s largest wineries, nitrogen and compressed air serve several lines at once. At this scale there are two main challenges: sufficient reserve during peak hours, and air clean enough that neither the nitrogen generator is damaged nor contaminated air reaches the product.

The solution

  • Nitrogen generator — INMATEC (Germany)
  • Screw compressors — EKOMAK, 8 m³/min
  • Air dryers — CALYPSO (Italy)
  • Line filters — 3 µm · 0.1 µm · 0.01 µm · 0.003 µm, plus a CND water separator
  • Compressed air receivers — 7,000 litres in total at 10 bar
  • Aluminium pipework and fittings (Italy)

Why four stages of filtration

The filters are arranged in a cascade because each stage protects the next. The coarse 3 µm filter catches dust and rust; 0.1 and 0.01 µm capture aerosols and oil particles; 0.003 µm removes ultra-fine residues. Skip the first stage and the fine filter clogs within weeks, making the whole filtration chain expensive.

The water separator removes liquid condensate at the very start of the chain, which is the cheapest way to protect the dryer and the filters.

The result

The plant received one integrated system: nitrogen for blanketing and bottling, clean compressed air for pneumatics, and a 7,000 litre reserve for peak demand, all from a single accountable supplier.
