Xenon Feed System

Assembly

Regulated plumbing that steps tank xenon from 150 bar to millibar level and splits it into precisely metered main, cathode, and neutralizer flows totalling a few milligrams per second. A full specification article for this item is being written. Meanwhile its bill of materials and connections are below.
