1.2 PREFACE
These pure gas components are precision instruments of superior quality. The individual com-
ponents are coordinated with each other and allow the fl exible confi guration of high-quality
pure gas supply systems. The use of selected materials, high-quality surface fi nishing and
excellent leak tightness ensure that the pressure and fl ow of even the purest gases can be
controlled with constant precision without contamination of purity. All of the steps involved
- from design to manufacture to fi nal quality inspection - must meet the strict criteria of our
assurance program.
