The End

O&P Focus Group Meeting May 99 • Recognized Modular Sampling System Efforts in Semi Conductor Industry (Standard) • Vendors like Autoflow, A+, Swagelok etc. promoted modular designs • Recognized that current implementations of sample systems designs have not changed for many years • CPAC has promoted Versatile Micro Analytical Systems (VMAS) as a basis for future micro-analytical techniques • O&P decided to sponsor a SSISSS (Small Smart Integrated Sensor and Sampling System) Tutorial at CPAC Nov Meeting

Nov99 CPAC SSISSS Tutorial • ExxonMobil/DuPont Provided Introduction to Tutorial • Validation of Sample System Performance • Integration of Sensor with Sampling System • Four Suppliers of Sampling/Analyzer Systems Participated in Tutorial: • A+, Autoflow, Swagelok, Rosemount • Many components commercially Available • GCX example of self-contained miniaturized GC (GC on a pole) • Recognition • Modular Sampling System can be a platform to integrate VMAS • Bridge between Process Sample (Macro world) Micro Fluidics Sensors/Analyzers

Driving Forces for Change • Reduce Cost of Ownership • Non Recurring Costs = Cost to Build • Operating Cost • Data Validation (Fit for Use)
