Notes and Changes:
v18 change:
• Added general stipulations in section 12.2 such as for design applications where dimensional control is extremely important or tolerances are exceedingly tight, it is the responsibility of the design engineer to (a) establish a basis for baking parts at temperatures lower than the default temperatures recommended herein, and (b) get a waiver for a lower temperature bake from the LIGO Vacuum Review Board.
• Corrected indium entry
• Combined copper and copper alloys (such as aluminum bronze, phosphor bronze and beryllium copper) into a single section
