Wet Process Heating and Cooling Equipment

High Purity Products


Process Technology's high purity products for wet process manufacturing applications include: fluoropolymer and quartz UPDI water heaters, inline chemical heaters, solvent heaters, nitrogen heaters, constant temperature baths, electric immersion heaters, inline heat exchangers, and high temperature filter chambers.  Industries served include Semiconductor, FPD, MEMS, Nanotechnology, LCD, Biomedical and Pharmaceutical.  These products are assembled in a Class 100 (ISO 5) cleanroom to exacting standards. 

Process Technology has a worldwide install base as well as an extensive distributor and service network for product support.  In addition to our standard products many custom products engineered specifically for your application are available.

DI WATER HEATERS

Designed for the ultra pure demands of high purity industries, Process Technology offers a full line de-ionized water heaters designed for your most demanding applications.  Sizes range from 3,000 watts up to 260,000 watts.  The patented designs incorporate unique features for superior thermal response.  The heaters are available in quartz or fluoropolymer wetted parts for the most demanding high purity applications.  All high purity heaters are assembled in an ISO5 (Class 100) cleanroom.  Also available are heaters made from titanium wetted parts for less critical, but still virtually contamination free performance.  Many custom configurations are available. 

Available DACTM software provides outstanding temperature stability for demanding flow/temperature requirements.  This outstanding control software is available for any of our DI water heaters.

These heaters are available with UL/ETL, CE and SEMI S2/S3 certifications. 

Lufran Fluoropolymer Water Heaters: Proven technology for UPDI heating applications. Patented purged element design offers exceptional MTBF. Conforms to Semi standards and CE compliant. Sizes available up to 260kW. Available patented DACTM software provides accurate temperature control for different flow and temperature requirements.

H2OT SHOTTM Quartz Water Heaters: Resistive element design for maximum life with no bulbs to ever change out. Ultra pure quartz wetted parts for maximum cleanliness. Conforms to Semi standards and CE compliant. Sizes available up to 144kW. Available patented DACTM software provides accurate temperature control for different flow and temperature requirements.

TytanTM Water Heaters: Titanium elements for long life. This heater is a low cost, high quality alternative for heating non-critical DI water applications. Semi and CE compliant configurations available upon request. Sizes available up to 144kW. Wall mounted up to 72kW.

 

INLINE CHEMICAL HEATERS

Inline chemical heaters are used in wet process manufacturing applications were inline heating is preferred over immersion heating methods.  Process Technology inline heaters are manufactured in fluoropolymer and high purity quartz materials.  Sizes are range up to 12,000 watts.  A large variety of standard and custom configurations are available.  Applications include temperatures up to 180 degrees centigrade.

QKV Series, QMaxTM In-line Chemical Heaters: All quartz and PVDF wetted parts. Vertically mounted.  Excellent choice for SC1, SC2, and other quartz compatible applications. Long lasting resistance heating element.

 

SOLVENT/NITROGEN HEATERS

SoltaN2TM Inline Solvent/Nitrogen Heaters: Electric heater with stainless steel construction designed for safe heating of NMP, EKC 265, EKC 830, ACT 690, ACT 970 and other solvents. Also heats nitrogen or other inert gases up to 200°C (392°F).

 

CONSTANT TEMPERATURE BATHS

Process Technology specializes in small volume chemical baths manufactured in fluoropolymer, PP and PVDF materials for corrosive chemistry.  Industries that these baths are utilized in include semiconductor, FPD, MEMS, biomedical and pharmaceutical.  Simple baths with or without immersion heaters are available as well as many options including integrated pump/filters, condensing coils, custom covers and control systems.

SB/RB/NE Series Constant Temperature Chemical Baths: All three standard bath systems include a PFA tank, temperature control, a PTFE immersion heater and redundant safeties.
  • SB baths are PFA chemical tanks systems designed for SC1/SC2, BOE and many other acid applications.
  • RB baths add a chemical condensing coil to the SB systems for KOH and other similar applications.
  • NE baths add both a condensing coil and an automatic DI water replenishment for phosphoric acid applications.

Etch TechTM series, Cascade Process Baths: Non-breakable PFA tank. For use with integral in-tank heater or external inline heater.

FiltranTM series, Recirculating Filter Etch Baths: Polypropylene or PVDF construction for applications such as HF up to 110° C. Integral pump, filter and PTFE heater. Good choice for buffered oxide etch requirements.
