On Site Nitrogen Generators and Nitrogen Generation Systems

At Compressor Care NW Ltd, we provide state-of-the-art on-site nitrogen generators and nitrogen generation systems, helping businesses across a wide range of industries take control of their gas supply, cut costs, and boost operational efficiency.

By producing your own nitrogen directly from the air around you, you can eliminate the need for bottled gas deliveries, reduce health and safety risks, and ensure a continuous, reliable supply 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The Science Behind Nitrogen Generation

The atmosphere that surrounds us is made up of approximately 78% nitrogen (N₂). Thanks to advances in technology, it is now possible to extract this abundant gas directly from the air using on-site nitrogen generators.

Our systems use Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology, a proven and highly efficient method of gas separation. PSA technology works by separating nitrogen molecules from oxygen molecules through a process called adsorption. Oxygen molecules are trapped by a carbon molecular sieve, while the nitrogen passes through to the outlet, producing a high-purity nitrogen gas ready for immediate use.

What You Need to Get Started

Setting up an on-site nitrogen generator is straightforward. In many cases, you can use your existing compressed air supply to feed the nitrogen generator, although additional filtration can be provided to protect and enhance the performance of the unit.

With minimal infrastructure changes, you can have a permanent, reliable, and cost-effective nitrogen supply ready to meet the demands of your business.

The Advantages of On-Site Nitrogen Generators

Switching to on-site nitrogen production with nitrogen generators offers a wide range of operational and financial benefits.

A Permanent Supply

On-site nitrogen generators ensure a permanent, uninterrupted nitrogen supply. By producing your own gas, you no longer rely on bottle deliveries, changeovers, or third-party suppliers. Your production lines and processes remain fully operational, preventing costly downtime and protecting your products from spoilage or contamination.

High Purity Levels

Our nitrogen generators can produce gas with purities upwards of 99.999% or higher, depending on your application requirements. This makes them suitable for even the most demanding sectors, including pharmaceuticals, food production, and laser cutting.

Cost Effective

Producing nitrogen on-site is significantly more cost-effective than purchasing bottled gas. You eliminate costly contracts, transportation fees, and rental charges, while also benefiting from a much lower cost per unit of gas. Over time, the savings can be substantial, often delivering a rapid return on investment.

Improved Safety

Removing the need for bottled gas handling reduces many of the health and safety risks associated with traditional nitrogen supply. No more moving heavy cylinders, no more risk of leaks or manual handling injuries, and no need for regular site deliveries. This leads to a safer, cleaner, and more organised working environment.

Labour Savings

Because the system is fully automatic, there is no need for staff to monitor or replace gas cylinders. This frees up time for more productive tasks and reduces labour costs, while also improving site efficiency.

Space Saving

On-site nitrogen generation systems take up far less space than storing multiple large gas bottles. This space saving can be significant, especially in production facilities where every square metre matters.

Plug & Play Installation

Our nitrogen generators are designed for ease of use. Compact, modular, and simple to install, they arrive ready for integration into your existing compressed air network. All you need is a compressed air supply, and your new nitrogen generation system can be up and running quickly and efficiently.

Outstanding Return on Investment

Few pieces of on-site equipment offer the return on investment that nitrogen generators do. Depending on usage levels, some businesses have achieved payback periods in as little as three months. Over time, the financial benefits can be considerable, freeing up capital for other areas of growth.

Questions and Answers

What purity levels can your nitrogen generators achieve?

Our nitrogen generators can deliver nitrogen at purities ranging from 95% to 99.999%, depending on your application needs. For industries such as pharmaceuticals, laser cutting, and food packaging, high-purity nitrogen is essential to ensure product quality and compliance with industry standards. We’ll assess your site and recommend a system that meets both your purity and flow rate requirements.

How long does it take to install a nitrogen generator?

Most nitrogen generator systems can be installed and commissioned in just a few days, especially when supplied as part of our plug-and-play turnkey packages. These arrive pre-assembled with compressors, dryers, filtration, storage vessels, and integrated pipework, all ready for rapid connection to your existing compressed air supply. This minimises disruption and allows you to begin generating nitrogen immediately.
