BIP® Technology
Changing the way you think about high purity gas
BIP® cylinders contain a high-tech purification system and unique valve design that deliver ultra-high purity gas. BIP® gases are perfect for a wide variety of applications where gas purity is essential, for example as a carrier gas in gas chromatography (GC) where they improve analytical accuracy, reduce baseline noise and lower limits of detection. Helium, nitrogen, hydrogen and Argon are the ultra high purity gases most frequently used in a laboratory and they are all available with BIP® technology.
Legislation and tough competition have resulted in increased demand for ever more accurate and reliable analyses of a wide range of complex chemical compounds. BIP® gases have impurity levels as low as 10 ppb total hydrocarbons,10 ppb oxygen and 20 ppb moisture, meaning BIP® gases deliver the lowest level of impurities available anywhere.
BIP® gases have become the analytical standard for all applications requiring high purity gases with consistently low levels of impurities, typically used in gas chromatography, inerting and high quality welding.
Overview
Specialist analytical and industrial applications require an assurance of gas purity at the point of use. All BIP® gases guarantee the highest levels of purity, with ultra low impurity levels using their built in purifier, ensuring accuracy of results, as the gases have impurity levels as low as 10 ppb THC, 10 ppb of O₂ and 20 ppb of H₂O. Using BIP® Helium, can dependent upon the application extend the life of the equipment being used, saving organisations both time and money.

“Why is gas purity critical for my analytical application?”
Some impurities can damage analytical instruments and affect accuracy of results. Oxygen and moisture are critical impurities in many analytical techniques.
