South-Tek Systems has unveiled a revolutionary system aimed at transforming the way food manufacturing businesses generate and utilize nitrogen on-site.
“We’re excited to introduce the N2GEN-FLEX to the market,” stated South-Tek Systems CEO, Jens Bolleyer. “Our customers are looking for efficient, cost-effective, and flexible solutions. The N2GEN-FLEX delivers on our promise to provide our customers with the right solution for their applications. It reduces operational costs, lowers service maintenance, and provides reliable high-purity nitrogen whenever it’s needed, revolutionising how companies handle their nitrogen requirements. This line of products represents the future of nitrogen generation.”
The N2GEN-FLEX employs advanced pressure swing absorption (PSA) technology to achieve the most efficient air-to-nitrogen ratio in the industry. Notably, this efficiency surpasses that of competing systems. By reducing energy consumption by 20% or more compared to traditional nitrogen generators, the N2GEN-FLEX ensures lower operational costs and extends the lifespan of system components. It is specifically engineered to deliver exceptional performance, flexibility, and cost-effectiveness for food manufacturing operations that require nitrogen with purity levels ranging from 95% to 99.999%, and flow rates from 400 to over 2200 SCFH.
“The N2GEN-FLEX’s low air requirement and minimal pressure drop allow users to pair it with a smaller compressor than traditional PSA nitrogen generators, which significantly saves money on upfront costs, electrical demand, and system maintenance,” noted South-Tek Systems mechanical engineer, Garrett Rinker, Ph.D. “As a result, the N2GEN-FLEX offers a longer-lasting and more reliable solution that benefits businesses both in time and money—granting them full control over operations at a predictable cost, independent of nitrogen delivery and supply chain volatility.”
By integrating computational fluid dynamics (CFD) in the design of the N2GEN-FLEX, South-Tek Systems has created a system that maximizes efficiency, minimizes waste, and delivers consistent, dependable performance across all applications. With energy savings exceeding 20%, the N2GEN-FLEX is an investment that pays for itself rapidly while ensuring a continuous, on-demand nitrogen supply.
“This new product is not just about being in control of your nitrogen – it’s about delivering efficiency, reliability, and flexibility,” remarked Mike Dolan, South-Tek Systems director of sales and marketing. “The N2GEN-FLEX sets a new standard for nitrogen generation, empowering organisations to take control of their nitrogen supply and realize substantial operational savings.”
