Go talk to an A&P about your ship... There are too many possibilities for a
simple answer... In addition to the tank, you may need a special hand pump
and a regulator, depending on the amount of pressure, fittings, etc., you
need...
We just had a Citation land at our field with the nose strut down on the
frame... The nearest mechanic that serviced Citations had to drive a
hundred miles one way to jack the plane, drop the strut, and replace the
torn seal - on a Sunday, no less... When he got here his nitrogen/pump rig
did not have the exact fitting needed as someone had changed things on this
ship... We basically had to raid three hangars to put together enough AN
fittings to rig a temporary fix, and even then he had to leave a borrowed
valve in the strut to get the ship back to the home field for a strut
overhaul and an AD change of seals... Good thing on our field most of us
are closet mechanics and have odd ball AN fittings, valves, etc., here and
there, or he would have been making another 200 mile round trip, with two
mechanics, and a truck load of equipment... No wonder I can't afford a
jet...

I'd like to get a tank of N2 to keep around to fill my struts.
