Gas Cylinders
11-BM has standard gas cylinders available, typically:
- O2,
- 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):
- CGA Size #350, Dual-Stage, < 200 psi. Used with Carbon Monoxide, Hydrogen, Ethane, Ethylene, Methane, and related gases. (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405973; mfr Matheson #3122-350)
- CGA Size #540, Dual-Stage, < 60 psi. Used with Oxygen. (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405957; mfr Matheson #3121-540)
- CGA Size #580, Dual-Stage, < 100 psi. Used with Inert Gases (multiple)
- CGA Size #580, Dual-Stage, < 400 psi. Used with Inert Gases (Sigma-Aldrich Part Z405922; mfr. no. Matheson #3126-580)
