SUPPORT / PRODUCT RESOURCES
With so many different nitrogen generators on the market, it can be overwhelming to find one to pair with your sample concentrator. Each generator system comes with its own set of specifications, including flow rates, purity levels, and pressure outputs, making it essential to match these criteria with the needs of your evaporator. Not to mention, considering other factors like space constraints, operational costs, and maintenance requirements. Navigating through the technical jargon of various brands can easily lead to confusion, especially if you’re not familiar with the intricacies of gas generation technologies.
If an incompatible or inefficient generator is purchased, this can hinder the performance of your nitrogen evaporator, leading to operational downtime and increased costs. Searching for the right gas generation system can quickly turn into an exhausting and time-consuming endeavor without the right knowledge. And that's where we come in.
Below is a table of the most popular nitrogen evaporators on the market, their gas input requirements, and a few compatible nitrogen generators to consider. To make it even easier, click the links in the generator matrix column for a complete product comparison of your available options (pricing included). No need for extensive product research or questioning whether a generator will work with your evaporator. Everything you need is right here for your convenience.

Laboratories are increasingly choosing nitrogen gas generators over traditional cylinders due to their superior efficiency, safety, and cost-effectiveness. Here's why this transition makes sense for modern labs:
1. Cost Savings and Convenience:
Nitrogen gas generators eliminate the recurring costs associated with purchasing, transporting, and replacing cylinders. Instead, they provide an uninterrupted supply of high-purity nitrogen, reducing long-term operational expenses. Additionally, generators are always available on-site, saving time and minimizing workflow interruptions caused by cylinder depletion or delivery delays.

2. Enhanced Safety:
Handling high-pressure cylinders can pose risks, including accidents during transport or leaks in storage. Nitrogen generators produce nitrogen directly from ambient air and operate without high-pressure storage, significantly reducing safety hazards in the laboratory.
3. Environmental Benefits:
By eliminating the need for frequent transportation and single-use cylinders, nitrogen generators contribute to a smaller carbon footprint. This makes them an eco-friendly choice for labs seeking sustainable solutions.

4. Reliability and Purity:
Nitrogen generators provide consistent gas purity tailored to specific laboratory needs, such as chromatography or mass spectrometry. This level of control is critical for maintaining the integrity of analytical results.

5. Flexibility and Scalability:
Generators are designed to meet varying laboratory demands, from small-scale applications to high-capacity operations. This adaptability makes them a versatile investment.
Ultimately, transitioning to nitrogen gas generators is a forward-thinking decision for labs aiming to improve operational efficiency, safety, and environmental responsibility.
