Membrane Nitrogen Generators

Quiet, compact, and maintenance-free on-site nitrogen generation

Air Kraft supplies a range of Atlas Copco NGM and NGM+ Membrane Nitrogen Generators, offering a simple, space-saving solution for continuous nitrogen supply. These units are ideal for industries that require medium to high flows of nitrogen at purities up to 99% - without the complexity or servicing needs of PSA systems.

Whether you're blanketing sensitive materials, purging tanks, or preserving product quality during packaging, membrane nitrogen generators provide a clean, efficient, and cost-effective source of on-site gas.

 Air Kraft Atlas Copco NGM Installation

A secure supply of nitrogen and oxygen

Whether your company is specialised in chemical manufacturing, electronics, laser cutting or food and beverage, a dependable supply of industrial gas is crucial. Compared to the on-demand delivery of gas bottles or tanks, on-site production of gas offers a wealth of advantages ranging from cost savings to continuous availability. Atlas Copco’s advanced nitrogen and oxygen generators offer you the ultimate solution: flexible on-site production of industrial gas at the lowest possible cost.

How Membrane Technology Works

Membrane nitrogen generators use hollow fibre membranes to separate nitrogen from compressed air. As the air passes through the membrane, oxygen, water vapour and other gases permeate through the fibres, while nitrogen continues along the flow path and is collected as product gas.

This passive, mechanical process means no moving parts, virtually no maintenance, and a long service life - making membrane technology ideal for remote installations or where operational simplicity is key.

Benefits of On-Site Membrane Nitrogen Generation

Low Maintenance and High Reliability

With no moving parts or complex control systems, membrane nitrogen generators are virtually maintenance-free, providing highly reliable operation even in remote or unattended facilities.

Cost-Effective Operation

Membrane systems offer a lower upfront investment than PSA and are ideal where ultra-high purity is not required. This makes them perfect for cost-conscious operations.

Continuous, On-Demand Supply

Avoid delays or shortages caused by bottled gas supply chains. Membrane generators give you a steady flow of nitrogen as and when you need it.

Space Saving and Quiet

Their small footprint and silent operation make them perfect for point-of-use installation, particularly in compact production areas or laboratories.

Improved Safety

Eliminate the need to handle, store, and transport high-pressure nitrogen cylinders. On-site generation greatly reduces associated risks.

Eco-Friendly

No transport, no deliveries, and energy-efficient operation mean membrane systems help lower your carbon footprint.

Typical Applications

Membrane nitrogen generators are widely used in:

Food Packaging

Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) to extend shelf life

Beverage Industry

Purging, tank blanketing, and bottling operations

Pharmaceuticals

Creating clean, inert environments

Plastics & Chemicals

Inerting, blanketing and transfer processes

Electronics

Purging enclosures or manufacturing under nitrogen atmospheres

Tyre Inflation

Automotive and aviation sectors
