New Cartridge Smart Numbering Scheme

With the introduction of

Connection Validation,

Metcal is migrating to a

new smart numbering

convention that is designed

to assist the operator or

the process engineer in the

selection of the correct

cartridge for the

application.

Note: STTC/SMTC cartridges will not work on CV-5200 series systems.
