Gas Generators

Looking for ways to be more economical and 'greener' in your laboratory? One way to start making cost-savings would be to change from gas canisters to on-site generation of gases such as Air, Nitrogen and Hydrogen.

Why make the change?

  • Worker Safety and Worker Efficiency - On average, you need two people when changing high pressure cylinders. This creates a drop in throughput and reduces analyst efficiency. With On-site generation your analysts wouldn’t have to move high pressure cylinders around, leaving them more time to concertrate on their analysis.
  • Reduce Instrument Down-Time - We all have experienced the mid-run system shut down when we run out of gas in our high pressure cylinders. Having to then decontaminate and re-run samples isn't a good use of time and money. Combining on-site gas generation with a switch back system would eliminate this problem.
  • Streamlining - Eliminate inconveniences such as delayed delivery, inflexible delivery schedules, price increases and long-term contracts
  • Less Storage Space Required - With on-site generation you are looking after one generator unit, compared with a room full of cylinders.
  • Consistent Gas Purity - Did you know that gas purity can change from cylinder to cylinder as well as in the cylinder as the gas is being used?
  • Economical - Shifting from high pressure cylinders to on-site gas generation will result in reducing operating and overhead costs
  • Greener for the Environment - Eliminates the need for multiple cylinder deliveries,  reducing green house gas emissions
