Nitrogen Generator Dundee
On-Site Nitrogen Generation Dundee
Getting started with nitrogen generation is easy. In fact, if you are using bottled nitrogen, you are already using nitrogen the hard way.
Switching to on-site nitrogen generation using a generator from Atlas Copco’s award-winning range, replaces the organisation of deliveries and managing bottled supplies with an easy-to-use generator giving you the nitrogen you need.


Why Choose Nitrogen Generation?
Bottled Delivery Is Expensive And Inconvenient
Much of the cost of bottled nitrogen is actually the delivery and supplier infrastructure required, not the price of the gas itself. It also has hidden costs, since you have to allocate space to bottle storage and resources to bottle management.
Nitrogen Is Plentiful
The air is 78% nitrogen, and that’s where a nitrogen generator gets its supply. Generators work by taking atmospheric air and using membranes or pressure swing adsorption (PSA) to separate the nitrogen from it.
Generation Is Safe And Better For The Environment
By avoiding deliveries, you reduce the carbon emissions associated with your business. The generation itself does not have any harmful effects; the ‘waste’ of nitrogen generation is nothing more than oxygen and water vapour.
On-Site Generation Is More Convenient
Using a generator allows you to produce the volume and specification of nitrogen exactly when and where required. The nitrogen can be incredibly pure. PSA generators can generate gas that is 99.999% pure, enough to meet the highest regulatory standards.

Nitrogen Generators Save Money
Generating nitrogen from the air, saving delivery and management costs, makes generation incredibly cost-effective. In some cases, it can cost as little as half as much as delivery of the equivalent volume of gas.
Some customers find that, after installation, they have recouped the costs of their new generator in just six months.
Who Can Use Nitrogen Generators?
If you need nitrogen in your business operations, you may benefit from a nitrogen generator. We can supply exactly the generator that’s right for you. From units to serve small workshops to heavy duty PSA generators that can provide a near-constant supply of highly pure gas. What’s right for you will depend on your operations.
Dundee’s growing pharmaceutical sector, for example, will need PSA generators to meet the exacting regulatory standards of the industry. The tech sector, which uses nitrogen to support manufacturing processes, may only need the (slightly) less pure 99.5% nitrogen that a membrane generator can produce.
