Overview of Valve Applications
Valves play a critical role in the semiconductor industry and other processing sectors, primarily used for isolating pumps and sample entry locks from high vacuum (HV) or ultra-high vacuum (UHV) work chambers.
Key Features
- Flange Compatibility: Designed to accommodate KF, ISO, and ASA/ANSI flanges, these valves function efficiently in atmospheric conditions down to the 10^-9 torr pressure range and are bakeable up to 150°C when in the open position.
- Premium Material: Constructed from electropolished stainless steel, these valves ensure superior durability and performance.
- Vacuum Brazing: The valves are vacuum brazed at 1,100°C, which guarantees reliable operation under HV and UHV conditions.
- Compact Design: Engineered for high conductance, the valves feature a compact design that optimizes space while maintaining performance.
- Smooth Operation: Designed for shock-free operation, they minimize vibration for enhanced stability during use.
- Longevity: With a service life of up to 100,000 cycles before maintenance is needed, these valves offer exceptional reliability and efficiency.
