Nitrogen Generation System NG

FCS Explorer ref your question how does it generate notrogen from the air?

The NGS system separates nitrogen from the air supply from the engine bleed manifold and feeds it into the Centre tank. The it reduces the oxygen content down from 20% ocurring in ambient air to 12%. The military requirement is 9%.
