Abstract: An interface for connecting a first vacuum source to a first vacuum apparatus, and for selectively connecting the first vacuum source and the first vacuum apparatus to a second vacuum apparatus without venting the first vacuum apparatus. A third fitting is connected to the first vacuum source, and makes a hermetic seal between the first vacuum source and the interface. A vacuum source line, having a first end and a second end, is connected by its first end to the third fitting. The vacuum source line receives a vacuum from the first vacuum source, and conducts the vacuum through the vacuum source line. A first tee section, having a first end and a second end, is connected by its first end to the second end of the vacuum source line. The first tee section receives the vacuum from the vacuum source line and conducts the vacuum through the first tee section.
