Using a Swagelok Tee
To supply gas from a single source to more than one input,
use a Swagelok Tee.
Do not combine valve actuator air with flame ionization air. The valve
N O T E
action will cause major upsets in the detector signal.

• Tubing cutter
• 1/8- inch Swagelok nuts and front and back ferrules
• 1/8- inch Swagelok Tee
