An Alternative Supply

Obtaining a ready supply of nitrogen gas can be problematic and expensive. Typical supply methods include high pressure cylinders, liquid mini tanks or bulk storage vessels. However, each of these options introduce a range of problems that need to be solved.

When considering an outsourced nitrogen supply, a reliable supplier must be sourced, valuable space in or outside the company's premises must be set aside and procedures to monitor and manage the supply and arrange delivery and payment of the gas must be considered. All the while, safety and handling concerns must also be taken into account.

The cost of addressing these issues can be high and difficult to budget for, while the price of gas and supplier rates continually increase and the environmental impact of truck based deliveries gain significance.

An ideal solution lies in a range of gas generators systems from Parker, which enable users to produce their total demand for nitrogen gas, on their premises, under their complete control. As a result, companies can generate as much or as little nitrogen as needed, at a fraction of the cost having the gas delivered by an external supplier.


Note: In high ambient temperature applications, it may be necessary to install an additional activated carbon stage to protect the nitrogen generator from oil vapour carryover. Please consult domnick hunter for advice.
