Description
This report describes a continuous mixing system used to supply a very stable gas mixture to the central detector of the Axial Field Spectrometer. The way in which the mixture is measured and controlled is described. A particular feature of this system is the careful minimization of effects due to variations in atmospheric pressure, inlet pressure and inlet temperature. (orig.)
