Products

The company manufactures a variety of on-site gas generation systems aimed at replacing high-pressure cylinders:

  • Hydrogen generators (COSMOS series), producing hydrogen with purities up to 99.99999% for GC/GC-MS applications.[2]
  • Nitrogen generators, for LC-MS, GC×GC, and sample evaporation, using membrane and PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) technologies.
  • Zero air generators, supplying purified air for analytical detectors such as FID, often as part of modular COSMOS stacks.[3]
  • Liquid nitrogen generators (CRYOGEN series), producing 10–80 L/day of cryogenic liquid nitrogen on-site using PSA separation and liquefaction technology.[4]

Manufacturing and quality

All research, design, and manufacturing are carried out at the company’s Paris-area facility. Products are developed to ISO-compliant standards, with reliability and safety as priorities. The company also provides proactive remote monitoring and long-term service contracts through its "F-DGSi Care" program.[5]

Applications

F-DGSi generators are used in laboratories and industries for techniques such as gas chromatography (GC), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC-MS), inductively coupled plasma (ICP), total organic carbon (TOC) analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), rheology, and particle sizing.

Awards

  • The G3+ rating by the Bank of France, a certificate awarded as a safe company with international customers (2014)
  • Grant issued by the French government with a 250,000€ prize to promote and develop F-DGSi's product innovation internationally (2014)[6]
  • The Export and Innovation prize awarded by the Ile de France Regional Council for an exceptional international performance (2014)[7]
