SDC’s Non-Haz Gas Managment Product Line expands the possibilities of your Ultra-High- Purity process gas distribution with the redesigned SymplicitY™ Manual-Switchover Panel. Its modular system design supports up to eight (8) points-of-use with minimal additional capital equipment investment. The SymplicitY is ideal for manual-switchover of cylinders and dewars.

The SymplicitY™ UHP Non-Haz Gas Panel safely and conveniently delivers a wide variety of gases in a user friendly, cost conscious package. The simple layout allows for easy operation of all gas panel functions. All valves are clearly marked to ensure accurate panel function. All plumbing assemblies are mounted to an aluminum backplane that is easily mounted to SDC’s FastRack™ or a Customer supplied structure.

When the primary supply cylinder becomes depleted, the customer can effortlessly switch to the reserve cylinder. The depleted cylinder can now be replaced without affecting delivery from the new primary cylinder, greatly reducing costly downtime.

The SymplicitY™ features PURGE/EVAC capability with the optional P-Vac™ manifold. Either cylinder can be evacuated all the way to the CGA fitting with SDC’s proprietary mini-venturi tee while the complimentary cylinder is still online! Ultrahigh Purity change-out of cylinders can now be performed with a constant UHP N2 purge of the pigtail. Again, this procedure can be done while the opposite cylinder continues to provide an uninterrupted supply of UHP gas to process.

Process purity levels are ensured through the use of top quality 316L and VAR SS tubing and components. All UHP wetted flow paths including purge panels, pigtails, and other dynamic pressure bearing components are welded by ASME Section IX Certified Weld Technicians. SDC’s Certified 3rd party orbital Welding.
