Versatile highly efficient AMC filter Print E-mail

ImageProduct Briefing Outline: Donaldson has launched "ChemCore" an innovative low pressure drop, high efficiency filtration media that is design to control ambient amines and acids affecting semiconductor lithography tools and processes. It is also highly effective for a retrofit solution for tracks, stockers and filter fan units.


Problem: Designed to meet applications where pressure drop, both initially and over the life of the filter as well as when laminar flow and physical constraints limit the use of packed-bed carbon filters. There is a need to meet the increased demand for a cost-effective method to control ambient amines and acids affecting semiconductor lithography tools and processes.

Solution: The development of this new media was a result of a clear focus on the need for an AMC filter that could be both retrofitted into current tools without sacrificing the efficiency of carbon tray filter and without the particulation issues associated with pleated carbon media. The ChemCore filters combine a proven filter media technology in a lightweight, low pressure drop form factor. It removes acids, bases (amines, NMP, NH3)
and condensable organics.

Applications: Acids, bases (amines, NMP, NH3) and condensable organics. A retrofit solution for tracks, stockers filter fan units amongst some of the applications.

Platform: Can be retrofitted to Dai Nippon Screeen's SK-80B/-2000/-300, RF3. FSI's Polaris 2200/2500/3500and Tokyo Electron's Mark-8, ACT-8, Act-12 tracks.

Availability: August 2005 onwards.
