Nitrogen Generator Hamilton
On-Site Nitrogen Generation Hamilton
On-site nitrogen generation produces gas when you need it, avoiding the regular deliveries that bottled nitrogen requires. Hamilton businesses can generate nitrogen to match their usage patterns rather than storing cylinders.
Design Air (Scotland) has worked with companies across central Scotland for over 20 years. We supply and maintain nitrogen generators alongside our other compressed air equipment.
What Is On-Site Nitrogen Generation?
Nitrogen makes up 78% of air around us. Nitrogen generators use compressed air from your existing compressor and separate the nitrogen through membranes or pressure swing adsorption. You get the purity and flow rate your processes need without depending on delivery schedules.
What Purity Levels Can Generators Produce?
Modern generators handle most industrial requirements. Atlas Copco PSA generators can produce nitrogen at 99.999% purity when needed. You set the specification that matches your application rather than accepting what comes in standard cylinders.
Benefits Of Generating Nitrogen On-Site
Hamilton companies that switch to nitrogen generation typically see these changes:
- Delivery independence: No waiting for cylinder deliveries or managing empty bottle collections. Your generator runs when you need nitrogen.
- Simpler handling: Nitrogen cylinders weigh approximately 70 kg when full and require proper lifting equipment. Generators eliminate the need to move heavy bottles around your premises.
- Local environmental impact: Delivery lorries make regular trips to drop off full cylinders and collect empties. On-site generation removes these vehicle movements from Hamilton's roads.
- Specification control: You can adjust purity and pressure to match what your processes actually need rather than accepting standard cylinder specifications.
- Running costs: Most users find on-site generation costs to be about half of what they pay for bottled nitrogen. The equipment often pays for itself within 12-18 months of everyday use.
Which Businesses Use Nitrogen Generators?
Any operation that uses nitrogen regularly can consider on-site generation.
Modern generators fit into most industrial spaces and produce only oxygen and water vapour as waste products. They operate safely in Hamilton’s industrial areas.
Starting With Nitrogen Generation
We handle nitrogen generator projects from initial assessment through installation and ongoing maintenance.
If you’re looking at nitrogen generation for your Hamilton operation, we can calculate potential savings based on your current usage and costs.
Design Air (Scotland) covers generator installation, commissioning, and service contracts. This means your nitrogen supply continues reliably while we handle the technical aspects.
