Embodiments described herein generally relate to a gas assembly disposed between a mainframe door and process chamber. The gas assembly provides multi-zone gas cross-flow distribution into a processing volume. Each of the zones are independently controlled. The zones each include a single nozzle, a plenum fluidly coupled to multiple nozzles, or a combination thereof. The nozzles, such as plenums included with nozzles, are disposed within the manifold between the first major surface and the second major surface of the manifold. An outlet of the nozzles are in fluid communication with the second major surface of the manifold, and in fluid communication with a volume of the process chamber. The gas assembly includes an adapter plate configured to be coupled to a vacuum mainframe robot.
