Testing
SC-11 Process Every LD series diaphragm valve processed in accordance with Special Cleaning and Packaging (SC-11) is helium leak tested to a maximum leak rate of 4 × 10–9 std cm3/s.
SC-01 Process Every LD series diaphragm valve processed in accordance with Swagelok Ultrahigh-Purity Process Specification (SC-01) is helium leak tested to a maximum leak rate of 1 × 10–9 std cm3/s.
Cleaning and Packaging
Cast-Body Bulk Gas Valves All LD series cast-body diaphragm valves are cleaned and packaged in accordance with Swagelok Special Cleaning and Packaging (SC-11) to ensure compliance with product cleanliness requirements stated in ASTM G93 Level C. Cleaning and packaging in accordance with SC-01 is available as an option for ELD series cast-body valves.
Forged-Body and Bar Stock Bulk Gas Valves All LD series forged-body and bar stock diaphragm valves are manufactured, cleaned, and packaged in accordance with Swagelok Ultrahigh-Purity Process Specification (SC-01). Cleaning in accordance with SC-11 is available as an option.
Options Green handles are standard. A variety of other colors are available. Replacement diaphragm/stem subassembly and gasket kits are available. |
