Looking for UHP gas system installation? With an experience of more than 15 years, Zeibaq specialises in designing and installing Ultra High Purity gas systems. We offer our product and services to laboratories, research centres, pharmaceutical units, semiconductor facilities, and advanced manufacturing environments.  

Our experts understand that UHP gas installation is more than just connecting cylinders to instruments. We understand that it involves delivering contamination-free gas, ensuring complete safety, and maintaining consistent purity levels according to international quality standards. It requires high precision because even a minor gas leak or a slightly wrong fighting will not only impact the gas purity negatively but also pose a major safety threat. In order to avoid this mistake, our team is trained in precision engineering and ensures that quality is maintained with international standards. 

What is a UHP Gas System?

In simple words, UHP gas system is a specially designed pipeline for distribution of following gases:

  1. Nitrogen
  2. Argon
  3. Hydrogen
  4. Helium
  5. Specialty Calibration gases

The above-mentioned gases are very sensitive to contamination and even slight microscopic contamination is unacceptable. This is why these gases are supplied at high purity levels such as 5N (99.999%) or 6N (99.9999%). 

Applications Of UHP Systems

  1. Analytical labs
  2. Pharmaceutical labs
  3. Semiconductor manufacturing
  4. Research & development facilities
  5. Biotechnology units

System Planning & Engineering Design

A successful UHP installation required detailed system planning. This is why before, the installation process, Zeibaq conducts detailed evaluation of:

  1. What is the gas type- inert/flammable/specialty
  2. Purity levels of 5V, 6N or higher
  3. Gas flow rate and operating pressure
  4. Safety classification requirements
  5. Compliance needs 
  6. Number of use points

Gas Source Setup

The purity of as majorly depends on its source. This is why Zeibaq ensures proper installation of:

  1. UHP gas cylinders or bulk supply systems
  2. Gas cylinder cabinets
  3. Automatic or manual changeover manifolds
  4. Gas detection and ventilation systems

Pressure Regulation & gas Panels

Stable pressure is necessary to prevent contamination of gases & instrument damage. Here’s a list of  things installed by Zeibaq to ensure stable pressure:

  1. Two-stage stainless steel UHP regulators
  2. Single-stage or double-stage gas control panels
  3. Diaphragm-sealed valves
  4. Pressure relief valves

UHP Pipeline Installation

As pipeline installing is one of the most important phases of UHP gas systems, here a list of what Zeibaq uses:

 

  1. 316L stainless steel tubing
  2. Orbital welding
  3. Electro-polished internal surfaces
  4. Minimum bends and zero dead legs

Leak Testing & System Purging

No UHP system is complete without all the necessary testing. Here’s a list of all the tests Zeibaq performs:

  1. Helium leak testing
  2. Nitrogen purging to remove oxygen and moisture
  3. System cleaning and passivation
  4. Pressure integrity testing

Purging ensures removal of:

  1. Oxygen
  2. Water vapor
  3. Particulate contamination

Point-of-use Installation

In order to maintain safety and ensure quality, Zeibaq at each instrument connection installs the following:

  1. Needle valves or point-of-use regulators
  2. Pressure gauges
  3. Flow meters
  4. VCR or high-grade compression fittings

All of this results in stable pressure delivery, controlled gas flow and zero contamination at instrument entry. 

Safety Systems Integration

When it comes to UHP gas systems, safety is non-negotiable. In order to ensure this, Zeibaq integrates:

  1. Hydrogen and toxic gas detectors
  2. Automatic emergency shut-off valves
  3. Alarm systems with visual and audio alerts
  4. Fire-rates enclosures
  5. Exhaust ventilation systems

These safety mechanisms ensure compliance with lab safety regulations and industrial gas standards. For hydrogen installations, flameproof fittings and proper ventilation are mandatory.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is 5N and 6N gas purity?

5N means 99.999% purity and on the other hand 6N means 99.9999% purity.

Where does Zeibaq deliver everything?

Zeibaq for more than 15 years has been a trusted UHP gas system across Saudi Arabia. 

Can copper pipes be used in UHP gas systems?

No. UHP gas systems need 316L stainless steel tubing. This is because copper can react and get oxidised which will result in contamination. 

Why is helium used for testing leaks?

Helium is the best choice for leak testing because its molecules are very small and this helps detecting micro leaks. 

Is having a centralised gas room compulsory?

Though it is not mandatory, having a centralised gas room helps improve safety and efficiency. 

What should be the frequency for maintenance checks?

It is better to get routine inspection done every 6-12 months. 

What kind of industries need UHP gas systems?

Research labs, laboratories, analytical testing facilities, semiconductor manufacturing, etc need UHP gas systems.
