How Long Does It Take to Install a PSA Nitrogen Generator?

Oct 29, 2025

Leave a message

As mechanical equipment, the installation procedure of a PSA nitrogen generator is not complicated, and the installation time is not long. If it is a non-skid-mounted PSA nitrogen generation system, it usually takes several days to a week. If it is a skid-mounted device, the time required will be even shorter.

 

A complete PSA nitrogen generation system installation process includes steps such as preparation, pipeline connection, circuit wiring, equipment commissioning, as well as acceptance and training.

 

Preparation

Site Selection and Positioning: A specialist will go to the site to confirm that the current location meets the installation conditions for the PSA nitrogen generator, ensuring that the area has the necessary power supply, gas source, ventilation, etc.

 

Equipment Inspection: After the equipment is delivered to the designated location as required, all components of the PSA nitrogen generator are carefully inspected to ensure there are no missing or damaged parts, and that the equipment model matches the required specifications. Once confirmed correct, connect to local infrastructure, mainly the power supply and nitrogen gas source.

 

 

Pipeline Connection

 

Inspect the system pipelines for air leakage. Ensure that through reasonable pipeline connection, the air compressor can smoothly send compressed air into the pressure swing adsorption tank, while increasing the air pressure of the air compressor to reach the pressure required for adsorption.

 

Circuit Wiring

 

According to the equipment manual, correctly connect the power supply, control circuits, and sensor lines. Avoid mechanical damage and electrical faults, and ensure all cables and terminal blocks are secure and comply with electrical safety specifications.

 

Equipment Commissioning

 

Although equipment commissioning and testing are generally done once before leaving the factory, another round of commissioning will be conducted at the equipment's usage site to better adapt to local infrastructure and on-site environment. The supplier's technical personnel need to ensure the stability of the power supply and that the voltage level meets the equipment requirements. At the same time, check that all connections are secure, and that all valves and instruments are working properly. This includes leakage testing and function testing. In addition, the supplier's technical personnel will also adjust pressure settings, inspect the adsorbent status, and optimize system performance on-site. The ultimate goal is to ensure that the nitrogen generator can achieve optimal performance under actual working conditions.

 

Acceptance and Training

Appearance and Performance Acceptance: Conduct a final acceptance of the equipment's appearance and performance to ensure all functions and parameters are normal.

 

Operation Training: Provide detailed training to operators to ensure they are familiar with the equipment structure and operation process. The training content should include daily operation, maintenance, troubleshooting, and safety precautions.

 

 

For skid-mounted PSA nitrogen generators, installation is more convenient. Although the design principle of skid-mounted equipment is "plug and play", some necessary installation and commissioning steps still need to be completed to ensure the normal operation and safety of the equipment. However, the entire process will be greatly shortened.

 

In general, the installation of a PSA nitrogen generator, from site selection to pipeline and circuit connection, is not complicated. Therefore, as long as the equipment is delivered normally, it can be put into use very quickly.
