Deliver fresh process liquid across the wafer with a fixed flat-fan spray. A pressure-can supply, adjustable nozzle position, and recipe-controlled timing make it a practical choice for repeatable developing and cleaning.
Requires a dispense control box, sold separately. One box supports up to four dispenses. Need more than four? Add dispense control boxes to expand your system.
All configurations use a ¼″ liquid line and valve with fixed fan-spray delivery.
A fixed fan-spray nozzle spreads fresh chemistry across the processing surface while the wafer spins. Set the nozzle position and fan coverage for the substrate, then coordinate liquid delivery with the developing or cleaning recipe.
Choose 110° or 40° fan coverage to suit the application. Multi-axis nozzle adjustment, dispense-flow adjustment, and suckback control help match coverage and the start and stop of delivery to the process.
The liquid is supplied from a separate pressure can. Each configuration includes an installed float sensor for empty-reservoir monitoring through DataStream™.
Designed for Apogee® spin developers configured for spray dispensing. A dispense control box supplies automated pressure and valve control and is sold separately.
Choose 1, 2, 3, 5, or 10 gallons around material consumption, refill frequency, and shelf life. Select standard stainless steel or a PFA-coated vessel to suit the chemistry, and confirm compatibility across the complete wetted path.
X-Pro pressure can storage: 1- and 2-gallon pressure cans fit inside the X-Pro in the designated storage area. Pressure cans larger than 2 gallons must be located outside the X-Pro.
Every fixed-spray option uses a ¼″ liquid line and valve. Standard vessels use PCBE and PFA-coated vessels use PCBTE; the line code is 2 and the spray suffix is DS. For example: PCBE-1-2-DS.
Specify the Apogee® developer model, substrate size, chemistry, and required coverage. Match the fan angle, nozzle position, flow, suckback, and recipe timing to the process. For recipe-controlled moving spray coverage, explore AccuScan™ Spray Dispense.
The float sensor is assembled onto the pressure can for supply monitoring through DataStream™.
