A gas injection system (10) is provided for a processing reactor and a method is provided for reducing transport of particulate material onto a substrate (12) during process gas start-up. The system (10) includes a two-way valve (40) having an inlet (42) connected to a mass flow controller (30), and first and second outlets (44, 46). The system (10) includes a principle gas feed line (50) connecting the first outlet (44) of the valve (40) to an inject plate (24) within a vacuum chamber (20) at a position above a substrate (12), and a start-up line (60) connecting the second outlet (46) to an orifice (62) in the chamber (20) at a position not above the substrate (12). Alternatively, the system includes a valve having an inlet connected to the mass flow controller, and a first outlet. In the alternative system, a first gas feed line connects the first outlet of the valve to the inject plate (24), and an acoustical dampening device is provided within the first gas feed line.
