Abstract
A valve is disclosed with a clamp mechanism that accepts interchangeable outlet connections. The interchangeable outlook connections may have different sealing geometries, where different sealing geometries are specified to be used with different gases. For use with a particular gas, the valve may be configured with the interchangeable outlook connection with the sealing geometry that is appropriate for that gas.
