Zusammenfassung:	A substrate container includes a shell defining an interior space and a purge flow distribution system. The shell includes a front opening, a bottom wall, and a rear wall. The purge flow distribution system receives a stream of purge gas and includes an inlet and a network of separate gas distributing devices configured to distribute the stream of purge gas into the interior space. A supply line is also included that is connected to the inlet and configured to divide the supply of purge gas to the network of separate gas distributing devices. A method of purging an open substrate container includes supplying a stream of purge gas to an inlet of a purge flow distribution system and dividing the purge gas to supply a network of separate gas distributing devices to distribute the stream of purge gas into the interior space.
