Another failed experimental attempt today. I tried to use the Buchi Inert Loop system today to spray some stuff under CO2, but it couldn't get under the 6% oxygen content it requires. The best it managed was only 10.1%, then it came back up to 15%. When atmospheric conditions are ~21.5%, it is pretty poor.
The system works in "blowing" mode, but as it was explained to me by my boss, all closed loops will have a suction point, and thus the air leak into it is somewhere past the positive pressure section. Now it's just an issue finding the leak where the air getting in and seal it.

What are you using for your feed (compressed gas)? Nitrogen will help reduce that down... if you use compressed air, it stays around 10 % - from my own experience with the Inert Loop... But I guess you are feeding CO2?
