Nitrogen Generator FAQs
A nitrogen generator is a piece of equipment that separates oxygen out of the air and allows the remaining nitrogen to be used in many industrial, manufacturing, and inerting processes. Nitrogen generators are a cost-effective alternative to purchasing nitrogen gas due to the ongoing cost of nitrogen gas cylinders or bulk nitrogen deliveries. On-site nitrogen generation is widely used across industries including manufacturing, food packaging, electronics, oil & gas, and pharmaceuticals.
Types of Nitrogen Generators
PSA NITROGEN GENERATORS
PSA (Pressure Swing Adsorption) nitrogen generator systems will generate high purity N2 gas by separating the molecules from ordinary air.
MEMBRANE NITROGEN GENERATORS
A nitrogen membrane system will generate high volume flows to meet your n2 gas needs.
NITROGEN ENGINEERED SYSTEMS
Customized-engineered and turnkey nitrogen generator systems.
NITROGEN CONTAINER SYSTEMS
Nitrogen container systems for highly efficient, cost-effective nitrogen gas generation.
NITRO BLAST NITROGEN GENERATOR
On location nitrogen generators to be used in storage and tap delivery of beverages.
NITROGEN CYLINDER FILLING
Compare to the costs of bottled N2 gas. Fill your own nitrogen gas cylinders and save with our nitrogen generators.
How to Spec Your Nitrogen Generator System
Specifying the right nitrogen generator starts with understanding your application requirements and aligning them with system performance. The first step is determining your nitrogen demand—how much gas your operation uses per hour, cycle, or production run. Be sure to account for peak usage and future growth to avoid undersizing your system.
Next, define your required nitrogen purity. Different applications—from food packaging to electronics manufacturing—require varying purity levels, typically ranging from 95% up to 99.999%. Higher purity levels often require larger systems and more compressed air, increasing both capital and operating costs.
From there, calculate your flow rate, typically measured in CFM or Nm³/h. This should reflect real-world usage, including simultaneous processes and demand fluctuations. It’s important to balance flow rate with purity, as higher purity can reduce output capacity and require additional system sizing considerations.
Finally, consider operating pressure and air supply requirements. Nitrogen generators rely on compressed air, and factors like air-to-nitrogen ratio, temperature, and system design all impact performance and efficiency.
By carefully evaluating demand, purity, flow, and pressure, you can confidently spec a nitrogen generator that delivers reliable, cost-effective performance tailored to your operation.

Why On Site Nitrogen Generators vs. Cylinders?
Cost-effective.
On-site nitrogen gas generators can be purchased for a one-time cost versus buying nitrogen in gas cylinders or bulk liquid nitrogen, which represents an ongoing cost for as long as you rent or buy them. After a one-time purchase of a nitrogen generator, it only takes five amps of power, which will result in huge cost savings over the years.
Space efficient.
An on-site nitrogen generator will typically take up less space than nitrogen cylinders or bulk tanks. Some businesses must devote a lot of space to nitrogen cylinders, especially if they need quite a bit of nitrogen for their manufacturing processes.
No waste.
Nitrogen cylinders automatically waste nitrogen, as only about 70% of the nitrogen in a cylinder can be used. Nitrogen gas generators only produce nitrogen as needed, so none goes to waste.
Eco-friendly.
Nitrogen cylinders must be delivered on an ongoing basis, thus using fossil fuels. Nitrogen generators are better for the environment.
