Abstract:  The purpose of this test method is to provide a uniform procedure for
determining the sealing characteristics across the internal sealing area
(seat) of plastic valve products used in ultrapure water (UPW) distribution
systems. This document is in development as an industry standard by
Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI). When available,
adherence to the SEMI standard is recommended.
