Your nitrogen cylinder supplier wouldn’t want you to know this.

Your nitrogen cylinder supplier would prefer it if you didn’t know about the benefits of switching to an on-site nitrogen generator. But after reading this article you’ll learn why it’s the better option, and how you can produce your own nitrogen on-site.

Are you still renting nitrogen?

If your current practice is to rent cylinders, manifold cylinder packs (MCP), or bulk storage vessels then this article is for you.

We understand why the thought of making the leap to on-site nitrogen generation hasn’t appealed to you yet.

Maybe you are completely unaware of the benefits. Or believe an on-site generator is an expensive commitment.
Or maybe you’re comfortable and don’t want to change.

You’re confident that your supplier has a wide enough selection of cylinders for your needs. They provide cylinder maintenance and repairs as part of the service as well. And the quality of gas meets the necessary standards and regulations.

And you’ve established a schedule with the supplier where cylinders are dropped off at your site and picked up when they are empty. It’s one more thing on the staff’s to-do list but it’s going okay, and no one complains. Why try to fix what’s not broken, right?

Let us explain why.

On-site nitrogen gas generation is a big improvement

There’s plenty of room to improve. You could be improving the quality of your nitrogen, cutting the costs of producing your nitrogen and reducing down-time in your applications.

Here are the benefits of Nitrogen Gas Generators that everyone in the industry unanimously agrees on: - You get access to the highest purity levels of Nitrogen. Anywhere from 95% to 99.999% nitrogen. - You have more control. You get the exact flow rate and pressure you need. - Your overall up-time will increase. There is a constant supply of nitrogen. - You reduce Nitrogen wastage. It’s estimated that up to 10% of the nitrogen is left unused in every cylinder. - You reduce the workload and risks involved with transporting, storing, and maintaining cylinders. - You get huge cost savings. An on-site nitrogen generator will pay for itself in about 2 years or less. And if you already have an air compressor, you're halfway there! Installing a nitrogen generator to an existing air compressor is easy.
