Modular mounting apparatus for fluid control components

Abstract

A mounting apparatus for fluid control components includes a first mounting plate with a first serial connection major surface with a first fluid port, a first set of through holes, and a first set of threaded holes formed therein, a first linking major surface, a first component minor surface with first component affixation apertures formed therein, and a first substrate minor surface with first substrate affixation apertures formed therein. A second mounting plate is aligned in a parallel configuration with the first mounting plate. The second mounting plate includes a second serial connection major surface with a second fluid port, a second set of through holes, and a second set of threaded holes formed therein, a second linking major surface, a second component minor surface with second component affixation apertures formed therein, and a second substrate minor surface with second substrate affixation apertures formed therein. A linking plate is attached to a portion of the first linking major surface and a portion of the second major linking surface, such that the linking plate is in a perpendicular configuration with respect to the first mounting plate and the second mounting plate.
