Nitrogen Generator Selkirk
On-Site Nitrogen Generation Selkirk
Eliminating reliance on bottled nitrogen deliveries and their associated schedules, businesses can generate nitrogen on-site, fulfilling their specific operational needs and reducing overall costs.
Design Air (Scotland) has served businesses in Selkirk and the Scottish Borders for over 20 years. We provide compressed air services, including nitrogen generation systems.


What Is On-Site Nitrogen Generation?
Nitrogen makes up 78% of the earth’s atmosphere. Nitrogen generators use compressed air from your existing compressor. The system separates nitrogen using membranes or pressure swing adsorption.
Your generator produces the volume and purity your processes need. Therefore, you get nitrogen when you need it, where you need it.
What Standards Can On-Site Generators Meet?
On-site generation produces high-purity nitrogen. Atlas Copco PSA Generators produce nitrogen over 99.999% pure. This meets requirements for demanding applications.
You set the specifications you need which prevents buying nitrogen that exceeds your requirements.

What Benefits Does On-Site Gas Generation Bring?
Businesses using nitrogen often find on-site generation practical:
- You control your nitrogen supply. No planning around cylinder delivery times.
- Nitrogen bottles require secure storage and careful handling. Generators eliminate heavy bottle handling.
- Bottle deliveries create transport emissions. This matters in the Scottish Borders where businesses value environmental responsibility.
- You set specifications for your processes. This reduces waste and ensures nitrogen meets your standards.
- On-site generation costs less than bottled deliveries. Some users find that generators pay for themselves within six months through savings.
What Businesses Can Generate Nitrogen?
Most businesses needing nitrogen can generate it on-site. Modern generators are compact and run efficiently. The system produces oxygen and water as by-products, making operation safe in Selkirk’s town centre locations.
