[Suzhou XITE Gas] Industrial Nitrogen Generator: How to choose an industrial nitrogen generator

Several factors are at work in selecting a nitrogen production system that is suitable for your company's needs. It is important to consider possible options for cost savings, portability, and the number of applications you need. To do this, it is best to identify the industrial applications to be supplied by the nitrogen generator. It would also be good to consider the final outcome of the task at hand. Membrane system and PSA system are two types of nitrogen generators, which can produce large amounts of nitrogen. Each provides a significant quantity and the cost of maintenance and operation is nominal.

Is the nitrogen generator cost effective?

The on-site production of nitrogen provides our customers with significant savings over the cost associated with buying cylinders, bulk or Dewar cans. Delivery costs, long-term contracts, tank rental costs and price increases are eliminated, resulting in a rapid return on investment. On average, our system recovers costs in less than 18 months. Operating costs associated with On Site Gas Systems on-site nitrogen generators are minimal due to limited maintenance and low air-to-nitrogen ratios.

Membrane Nitrogen Generator

That is to say, the selection of industrial nitrogen machines comes down to the number of gases required and the portability required if necessary. With a membrane nitrogen generator, no moving parts are required for the separation process. Membrane nitrogen generators provide several customized configurations and system mobility that are not available in other technologies. Membrane devices, for example, are particularly useful in outdoor environments.

What nitrogen purity does my application require?

A N2 system that provides 95% purity requires about two standard cubic feet of compressed air per minute to provide one standard cubic foot of nitrogen per minute. Experts recommend that managers start with each application that uses nitrogen and count it together to determine total demand. Both the PSA and the membrane generator systems are capable of providing a substantial amount of nitrogen at comparable operating costs. It is worth noting that some devices may require higher purity gases for certain tasks. All applications are unique, and On Site Gas Systems can tailor a system to suit your needs. Some common applications and nitrogen purity levels are as follows.

Food packaging - Purity of about 99.5% for most applications.

Covering to avoid dangerous situations - anywhere between 95% and 97%.

Heat treated Metal-Materials and processes determine whether purity levels are 97% or as high as 99.999% (10 parts per million of O2).

Billet vegetable oil (edible) - about 99.9%.

Printed circuit board - "unleaded" selective solder requires 99.999% (10 parts per million of oxygen) in most cases. Both peak and reflow welding require 99.9% to 99.99% purity.

Maintenance of commercial nitrogen generator

Fortunately, generator maintenance is a fairly simple process and staff can be trained to perform general maintenance. Field Gas Systems also employs a team of experienced technicians who can assist in on-site maintenance as required.



Advantages of owning a field nitrogen generator (nitrogen generator):

Before using the nitrogen generation system on site, many enterprises in the industry have no choice but to buy nitrogen elsewhere. However, the use of on-site nitrogen generator can eliminate all the troubles related to bulk purchase of nitrogen. Our nitrogen generator is an option with the greatest benefit: the average cost of producing nitrogen by ourselves is one-third to one-half lower than the relevant cost of purchasing nitrogen. Using the on-site nitrogen generator system, there is no need to pay the freight when purchasing nitrogen. Our nitrogen generator system usually allows you to recover the cost within 18 months.

In addition to economy, the nitrogen generator system of the on-site nitrogen generator also provides:

Reliability - the nitrogen generator system, that is, the on-site nitrogen generator system, uses the surrounding air to generate nitrogen. Therefore, our customers never have to worry about the shortage of nitrogen. Reduce stress - improve safety through storage. Simple - we make it easy for people without relevant equipment experience. The visual touch screen control can control the stability of gas purity. At the same time, it can operate self diagnosis, visual operation diagram and maintenance plan reminder on the screen. Flexibility - our equipment is small and can be transported under various conditions, so as long as there is air and electricity, the equipment can operate stably anywhere. Fully automatic - once a downstream request is detected, production begins.

Why use XITE nitrogen generator?   Our nitrogen generator system provides reliable on-site nitrogen supply for various industries, which is famous in China and Southeast Asia. Our on-site nitrogen system can produce nitrogen with purity up to 99.999%. For our nitrogen generator, it can meet the nitrogen production in any place and any complex environment.
