The 11-BM experimental station includes support for gas equipment to support various insitu experiment by on-site users
 
An overview is given below, contact staff for details

== Hutch Patch Panel ==
Gas from cylinders mounted outside the 11-BM-B hutch can be connected to a sample environment at the beam position inside the hutch by a series of existing patch panels and flow meters.

== Gas Cylinders ==

11-BM has standard gas cylinders available, typically:
*O2
*Inert Gases: N2, He, Air
*3.5% H2 (He balance)

Always check with beamline staff in advance to ensure gas availability for an experiment. Custom gas cylinders need to be requested well in advance.


== Gas Regulators ==
11-BM has several dedicated high-purity gas regulators, including (as of Jan 2012):

For Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen, Ethane, Ethylene, Methane, and related gases:
*CGA Size #350, Dual-Stage, Gauge < 200 psi ''(4-100 psig delivery) (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405973; mfr Matheson #3122-350)''


For Oxygen:
*CGA Size #540, Dual-Stage, Gauge < 60 psi ''(4-100 psig delivery) (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405957; mfr Matheson #3121-540)''


For Inert Gases:
*CGA Size #580, Dual-Stage, Gauge < 60 psi ''(2-30 psig delivery) (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405906; mfr. no. Matheson #3121-580)''
*CGA Size #580, Dual-Stage, Gauge < 100 psi. ''(multiple regulators)''
*CGA Size #580, Dual-Stage, Gauge < 400 psi ''(10-250 psig delivery) (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405922; mfr. no. Matheson #3126-580)''
