permeation
tube, perform the following calculations:
FC 94 * 9
Permeation Rate, P = -- = ------

= 2,214.7 ng/min
Where F = Permeation Oven Flow Rate, cc/min
C = Output Concentration, PPM
K = Molar Constant for SO

from Figure 4-1
For this application a 2,215 ng/min at 40

If a gas blend is desired, similar calculations are required for
each of the blends.
