Abstract

A process and device for gas analysis has an input for a gas analyzer which is meant for connection to a vacuum pump. At least a portion of the gas to be analyzed is supplied at the inlet by applying a pump flux to the inlet. Superimposed on the pump flux is a further gas flux which is supplied over one or more gas line segments at a non-molecular flow-dominant flowrate.
