Abstract

A pressure control system that controls the pressure of a fluid in a plurality of zones includes a distribution manifold, at least one main manifold connected to the distribution manifold, and at least one disposable manifold connected to the distribution manifold and the main manifold. The disposable manifold is adapted to be replaced independent of the distribution manifold and the main manifold, and is connected to each zone and to at least one vacuum source. The distribution manifold distributes the fluid to the plurality of zones, so as to cause flow of the fluid into and out of a measurement chamber located within each zone. The main manifold includes, for each zone, a pressure sensor configured to measure pressure in the measurement chamber in that zone, and a control valve configured to regulate the flow of the fluid through that zone.
