FlexGas™ Mini Valve Manifold Box

Download FlexGas Mini Valve Brochure pdf

The FlexGas™ Mini Valve Manifold Box is designed to meet the most demanding requirements for safe handling and Ultrahigh Purity (UHP) delivery of many process gases. A myriad of configurations are available to delivery to up to four (4) points-of-use in this UHP and very compact package. Sister product to the popular FlexGas™ Gas Cabinet, it is also representative of SDC's continuous drive and commitment to providing the industry’s safest and most reliable UHP specialty gas equipment available. Mass customization and modular design concepts of gas sticks and FlexPowr™ Controller architecture have combined to widen the product configuration spectrum and greatly increase user flexibility. From the Fab to the Lab to the University, SDC sets itself apart as the clear choice for value in today’s budget conscious environment.

The FlexGas™ Mini VMB makes it easy to meet your exact gas delivery needs. Our modular design concept allows you to use a building-block method to configure a VMB to your specifications no more paying way too much for a system that far-and-away exceeds your requirements.

Start by choosing one of several base configurations. Begin customizing right at the gas panel level by selecting the number of gas sticks you require. Next, determine whether your systems needs only PURGE, only EVAC, or both PURGE & EVAC. Continue by configuring each individual gas stick to meet your process requirements. Stick options are listed on the front page.

Add safety and peace-of-mind by purchasing the optional FlexPowr™ Controller. A normally-closed ESO Valve is added as part of the FlexPowr™ Controller option for automatic shutdown of the INLET MANIFOLD. The FlexPowr™ Controller supports up to 4 dry-contact alarm inputs. Exhaust pressure switch, gas leak detection, & UVIR are just some of the optional controls components available for shutdown.
