Critical orifice dilution system and method.

摘要

An apparatus and method are provided for preparing low concentration gas phase calibration standards. The flows of a standard mixture of impurity in a gas and a dilution gas are controlled by regulating the pressure upstream of respective calibrated orifices. The pressures of the gas flows are regulated such that a critical flow condition is maintained through the orifices. The two flows are then combined to obtain a known dilution of the impurity in the gas. <IMAGE>
