Conflat flange to Ladish flange adaptor
The image shows a conflat flange/ladish flange adaptor that allows an ST-100 to be installed on a UHV chamber with a 2.75" conflat flange. Please note that while this is the easiest way to put an ST-100 onto a UHV chamber, the ST-100 will not be UHV compatible.
