Nitrogen Purging

ION Corporation has developed a robust and flexible system that allows nitrogen purging for highly customized configurations and needs.

Our team provides a nitrogen purging process to remove residual moisture from hygroscopic components in space flight cabling and electronic assemblies.

This includes:

• Space flight cabling packaged in anti-static Mylar bagging

• Electronics enclosures

• Gas drying of instrumentation

• Optics equipment

• Equipment leak testing

• Storage and shipping containers

ION Corporation can provide purging services for in-house built assemblies and customers’ existing equipment and can also log purging data from each purging event as needed for qualification and verification needs. Nitrogen is the primary medium used, but other gases also used in purging are air, argon, helium, and SF6.
