EXT TURBOMOLECULAR PUMPS AND EXC CONTROLLERS

EXT turbomolecular pumps

Our range of EXT turbomolecular and compound molecular pumps and EXC Controllers uses state-of-the-art technology to provide reliable, hydrocarbon-free, high and ultra high vacuum.

Key performance factorsA turbomolecular pump (TMP) is a multi-stage axial-flow turbine in which high speed rotating blades provide compression by increasing the probability of gas molecules moving in the pumping direction. The turbomolecular pump is optimized for molecular flow conditions and requires a suitably sized two stage rotary vane pump or an oil free scroll pump to exhaust to atmosphere.

A compound molecular pump (CMP) is based on the concept of combining bladed turbomolecular stages with molecular drag stages on the same rotor. This design allows:• High critical foreline pressures (typically up to 10 mbar)• Options to use smaller backing pumps or dry diaphragm backing pumps

Pumping speed (volume flow rate) is determined by the rotor diameter, inlet flange size and rotational speed. The pumping speed reduces at high inlet pressures to a value determined by the size of the backing pump.

As the inlet pressure rises, the motor power dissipation and pump temperature increase. Maximum continuous inlet pressure sets the maximum throughput limit for steady state pumping and depends on the cooling method used. Above this pressure, the rotational speed of the pump reduces as temperature sensors limit the pump power. With a water-cooled pump, the actual maximum throughput depends on the size of the backing pump.

Quiescent electrical power is the nominal power dissipated by a pump operating normally at full rotational speed and with low gas throughput (inlet pressure below the 10–3 mbar range). During the run-up time, or when operating at high gas throughput or above the critical backing pressure, the pump power dissipation will rise and approach the maximum power output for the EXC Controller used. Critical backing pressure for conventional turbomolecular pumps is approximately 0.1 to 0.2 mbar.

Compression ratio is determined by the rotational speed, the number of pump stages and the molecular weight of the pumped gas. It is higher for heavier gases which explains why the suppression of hydrocarbon backstreaming is so effective and why the ratio for hydrogen is important for ultra high vacuum applications.

Ultimate pressure measured according to Pneurop standards, is the lowest pressure achieved in the test system, 48 hours after bakeout. The system is backed only by a two-stage rotary vane pump. Fluoroelastomer inlet seals are used with ISO-flanged pumps and metal seals are used with CF-flanged pump models.

Bearing and suspension technologiesWe use two basic technologies: magnetic bearings and mechanical ceramic ball bearings.

Ceramic bearings, which are lubricated for life by either grease or oil, have replaced conventional steel bearings. The silicon nitride ceramic balls are lighter, harder and smoother than steel equivalents, leading to longer life and lower vibration characteristics. Reliability is increased because the ball and race materials are different, which prevents micro pitting.

Magnetic bearings further increase reliability. Our EXT turbomolecular pumps up to 540 l s-1 use a hybrid bearing arrangement with a permanent magnet upper bearing and an oil lubricated ceramic lower bearing.

Rotor technologiesWe use two basic technologies:• conventional full stack turbomolecular (typically 12 stages)• compound molecular (combining turbomolecular and drag stages)

In addition, EXT pumps up to 540 l s-1 use monobloc rotors machined from solid bar by computer controlled high speed milling machines. This technology produces stable, rigid rotors and allows virtually unlimited design flexibility for optimum vacuum performance.

Motor technologyEXT pumps use brushless d.c. motors and are available in 24 and 80 volt variants. For the 24 volt pumps the TIC line of controllers are available with the added benefit of integrated instrument controllers. For the 80 volt pumps you can choose from our EXC line of controllers to optimize the performance and cost options for your application.

The Controllers incorporate a regenerative back-up supply which provides power in the event of electrical supply failure to keep the vent-valve closed for several minutes.

Corrosive applicationsFor maximum life and reliability in the exacting process conditions encountered in semiconductor wafer processing applications, we recommend that you use turbomolecular pumps from our BOC Edwards STP-C and STPH-C series (see page 2-30). These Maglev pumps have magnetic bearings and are ideal for these harsh duty applications.

Purge portThe EXT pumps (with the exception of the EXT70 and EXT70H) all have purge-ports which can be used to purge the motor and bearing cavity with an inert gas (such as nitrogen). We recommend that you purge the pump when you pump corrosive and abrasive gas mixtures or those with an oxygen content over 20%. You can use our PRX10 purge-restrictor to set the purge gas flow rate. This typically adds up to 25 sccm to the total gas load and the backing pump must be sized accordingly.

SVentingTo maintain the cleanliness of your vacuum system, we recommend that you vent a turbomolecular pump at or above half rotational speed, when the rotor is still spinning fast enough to suppress any backstreaming of hydrocarbons from the backing line.

The vent port on the EXT pump is part way up the rotor stack to ensure maximum cleanliness even with fluoroelastomer sealed vent-valves. Each pump is supplied with a manual vent-valve. If you use this manual valve care must be taken not to open it too quickly, especially if the system volume is small (typically less than the approximate volume of the turbomolecular pump), because if the rate of pressure rise is too high, the pump bearing life may be reduced.

In a small volume system, the rate of pressure rise will be greater than in a large volume for a given vent flow rate, and it may be necessary to restrict the vent gas flow. We offer the VRX range of vent restrictors which you can fit to your EXT pump, (see page 2-26).

Since the rate of pressure rise cannot be accurately controlled by the manual vent-valve, we recommend that, unless you fit a suitable VRX restrictor to the vent port, you must wait until the turbomolecular pump has slowed down to 50% speed, as indicated by the controller, before you open the manual vent-valve.

The maximum rate of pressure rise varies by pump model, and the Instruction Manual supplied with an EXT pump gives further guidance on this, and the size of vent restrictor needed to meet the fastest pressure rise allowed.

Control of the rate of venting is particularly important with pumps using fully magnetic bearings, otherwise the safety bearings may be damaged.

The manual vent-valve can be replaced with a TAV solenoid valve driven by the EXC Controller to allow venting after a 2 second delay on shut-off, or delaying vent until the rotational speed has dropped to 50%. The EXC Controller can also control the TAV vent-valve in the event of power or pump failure.

You can choose from two solenoid vent-valve options; the TAV5 which covers most auto-venting applications, and the TAV6 which has a higher conductance than the TAV5 and is designed either for use on larger chambers (typically with a volume greater than 10 liters), or when you want to use a two-stage venting procedure for the fastest possible vent times.

For two-stage venting you need two TAV valves. By using the appropriately restricted flow for the first stage vent-valve you can start venting when the EXT pump is still at full rotational speed. Once the pump has slowed to half rotational speed you can then introduce higher flow rates from the second stage vent-valve.

Inlet-screenAn inlet-screen is fitted as standard to all EXT pumps. The inlet-screen prevents debris from falling into the pump-inlet. In addition, the inlet-screen prevents you from coming into contact with the blades of the pump when it is disconnected from your vacuum system.

CoolingFor most applications, we recommend that you use forced-air cooling with the appropriate ACX air-cooler connected to your EXT pump. If the ambient temperature is below 30 °C, the EXT70 and EXT70H pumps can be cooled by free convection (dependent on gas load and backing pressure). NB: high gas load, high backing pressure and rapid cycling require more cooling.

However, if the ambient temperature is above 35 °C you must water-cool the EXT. The barbed connectors on the water-cooler are suitable for 6 mm internal diameter hose.

Water cooling reduces the running temperature of the pump motor and bearings and is particularly recommended when you operate the EXT with a continuous high throughput (that is, inlet pressure above 1 x 10-3 mbar) or when you bake the EXT pump to above 70 °C (measured at the inlet flange).

Scope of supplyFor end users desiring front panel controls and indications when using an 80 volt pump a minimum operating system requires you to order an EXT pump, an EXC controller and a pump to controller cable. For a 24 volt pump a minimum operating system requires you to order an EXT pump, a TIC controller and an EXDC controller. (The EXDC controller is not required when using an EXT75DX or EXT255DX).

Each EXT pump is supplied with an inlet-screen, elastomer inlet seal or copper gasket (as appropriate), manual vent valve and water-cooler. EXT75DX, EXT255DX and EXT555M require a water-cooler accessory in addition (if required).

Each EXC/TIC controller is supplied with a 2 m unterminated electrical supply cable.

SEXC CONTROLLERS

Turbomolecular pump controllersEXC controllersTurbomolecular pump controllersEXC100E, EXC100L, EXC120, EXC300M and EXC300 controllers

EXC controller rangeOur electronic drive EXC Controllers provide power and control for EXT pumps and accessories. There are seven Controllers: EXC100E, EXC100L, EXC250E, EXC250L, EXC120, EXC300 and EXC300M. All of these controllers, except the EXC300M, are compatible with our 80 V d.c. EXT turbomolecular pumps with brushless d.c. motors. The EXC300M is compatible with our magnetic bearing pump.

The EXC120 with a maximum power output of 120 W covers most pumping applications. The EXC300 is a high power version of the EXC120 and will run EXT pumps up to full speed faster than the EXC120 and will maintain pump performance at higher inlet pressures.

The EXC100 and EXC250 range of controllers have no front panel controls, and are intended for remote control only. The EXC100E and EXC250E have an external connector for use with the 1M, 3M and 5M pump-to-controller cables listed in the EXT accessories. The EXC100L and EXC250L are equipped with an integral 1M pump-to-controller cable.

Front panel controls and indicatorsWith the exception of the EXC100 and EXC250 range, all controllers have the following front panel controls and indicators:• Start/Stop – to switch the pump on and off• Standby – to switch the pump into standby mode, at 70% of full speed• Heater – to switch the bakeout band on and off• Fail indicator LED – is lit when the turbomolecular pump has tripped due

to over-temperature or overload.• Electrical supply indicator LED – is lit when the EXC is switched on.• Speed indicator bar graph – has a four segment display to show when

the turbomolecular pump is operating and has reached 25%, 50% and 75% of nominal speed.

Rear panel connectionsAll of the EXC Controllers have rear panel connectors for logic interface (for remote control), air-cooler, vent-valve and Active vacuum gauge. In addition, the EXC120, EXC300 and EXC300M have connectors for bakeout band electrical supply and rotary pump electrical supply switching.

The logic interface facilities are:• Remote control of Start, Stop and Standby.• Vacuum system interlocks to prevent incorrect operation of the

turbomolecular pump.• Normal and fault condition outputs• 0-5 V d.c. analog output proportional to turbomolecular pump speed

(0-10 V d.c. for EXC100 and EXC250 range)

The air-cooler and vent-valve electrical supplies are 24 V d.c. outputs which are suitable for use with BOC Edwards EXT accessories. The Active gauge connector is suitable for use with the BOC Edwards Active vacuum gauge heads, allowing the operation of the gauge head and the turbomolecular pump to be interlocked.

Features & benefits• Controllers can drive different pumps (except the EXC300M).• Switched-mode power supplies which automatically adjust to any

electrical supply.• Electromagnetic compatibility which exceeds the requirements of the

European generic immunity and emission standards.• Regenerative power supply which provides vent-valve control options.• Rear panel sockets for vent-valve, air-cooler and Active vacuum gauge.• Full remote control.• Standby and bakeout band control from front panel (except EXC100E,

EXC100L, EXC250E and EXC250L).• User selectable "normal" speed and time-out settings.• 0-5 V d.c. analog output proportional to turbomolecular pump

rotational speed. (0-10 V d.c. for EXC100E and EXC100L).

STIC TURBO & INSTRUMENT CONTROLLER

TIC Turbo & instrument controller

A compact turbo and instrument controller with a large clear graphical display, an intuitive user interface and serial communications providing full remote control and data logging functions via a new WindowsTM based PC program.

The controller automatically recognizes and supports up to three gauges from the BOC Edwards range (excluding IGC and Barocels), and one 24 V turbomolecular pump from the EXT range. Cooling and vent valve support is provided directly from the controller. Backing pump control is provided either for a compact 24 V diaphragm pump (on 200 W versions only), or where greater pumping speeds are required, mains backing pumps (up to E2M28) may be controlled via an optional relay box. The relay box also controls a mains heater band and backing line isolation valve and may include three 250 V a.c. 3 A changeover relays, which are activated by the gauge open collector set point outputs.

High pressure gauges may be used to initiate turbo pumps and low pressure gauges; alternatively, time delays and normal signals may be used to control events such as turbo and instrument start. There is a comprehensive selection of protection and safety interlock features.

The TIC turbo and instrument controller may be either rack or bench mounted and provides a useful hub for the flexible operation of a wide range of vacuum system configurations.

Features & benefitsUniversal turbo & instrument controller• TIC automatically recognizes and controls up to three active gauges and

one 24 V turbomolecular pump from either the DX or EXDC ranges. The 200 W version provides sufficient power to ensure optimum performance of larger 255 turbos. DX turbos have full serial communication with TIC and may be both configured and report status via TIC.

Backing pump support• Both mains and 24 V backing pumps may be controlled by TIC. The

200 W version supports the new XDD1 dry diaphragm pump. For larger vacuum systems both the 100 W and 200 W versions may control mains backing pumps, including XDS10 and up to RV12, via the optional relay box.

Relay options• Three optional relay boxes are available for use with TIC. These include

a version with three 250 V 3 A changeover relays, activated by the TIC internal open collector set point outputs. Another version controls a mains backing pump, turbo heater band and backing line isolation valve. The final relay box combines these features to provide 250 V changeover relays, backing pump and auxiliary controls.

• All relay boxes include a logic bypass facility for further system integration.

Simple system configuration• In most instances, TIC systems may be simply and quickly configured

using the range of standard cables on offer, there is therefore no need for the customer to prepare loom assemblies or relay boxes and special interfaces.

Direct pressure readout• TIC includes lookup tables for a range of commonly encountered

process gasses (N2, He, Ar, CO2, Kr & Ne). Selecting the appropriate gas enables direct readout of the correct pressure without the need to apply conversion factors.

Compact instrument• TIC is packaged in a compact case and may be panel or rack (¼ 19" rack

3U) mounted. With the addition of the bezel it becomes an attractive bench-top instrument.

Clear, easy to use graphical user interface• The large 128 x 64 pixel backlit graphics LCD and mobile phone style

menu system simplifies programing and with a choice of summary screens excellent visibility of displayed parameters is assured.

Universal power supply• TIC will operate from mains supplies with voltages between 90 and

264 V a.c., and frequencies between 47 and 63 Hz. No user intervention being required.

Serial communications• To enable complete integration into PC and PLC controlled processes,

all TIC variants include RS232 and RS485 interfaces as standard.

WindowsTM PC program• TIC is supplied with a new WindowsTM PC program which enables full

setup and control from a PC, using the RS232 interface.

Software upgrades• As new compatible products are released, TIC software may be simply

upgraded using the special utility supplied with the WindowsTM PC program.

TIC software upgrades will be made available via e-mail and the Internet.

Display interface

TIC software is structured through a series of easily accessible screens, similar to a mobile telephone.

TIC automatically recognizes which gauges and turbo are connected and displays the appropriate information on the default summary screen. Scrolling and selecting accesses the control and set-up menus for that item.

Turbo speed is shown as a proportion of full speed by a bar graph. "Norm" indicates that the turbo has reached its Normal Speed, whilst forward or reverse facing chevrons indicate acceleration and deceleration.

Pump status is displayed, which combined with gauge outputs and relay status gives a clear indication of what is currently happening in the vacuum system.

There are a number of display options for maximum clarity. In addition, two levels of password protection may be applied, effectively restricting or preventing unauthorized intervention.

In the event of an error occurring, TIC will display either a WARNING or flash an ALARM. A warning advises of a condition outside normal parameters, requiring no action, but an alarm must be cleared before normal operation may resume.

Display units may be in mbar, Torr, Pa or Volts.

The three set point relays which are highlighted when tripped, may be linked to any gauge.

Gauge inputsInstrument supporting TIC variants recognize and control the following gauges:

APG, APGX, ATC, ASG, AIM, WRG & AIGX*

* No more than one AIGX gauge may be connected to TIC at a time.

Backing pump 24 V(For mains backing pump support, see below.)

200 W turbo supporting TIC variants recognize and control the following 24 V backing pumps:

XDD1

Relay box (optional)General description A range of relay boxes has been developed to allow TIC to operate three 250 V a.c. 3 A (non-inductive) changeover relays, mains backing pumps and accessories.

The changeover relays are activated by the TIC set point outputs. The mains backing pump relay controls a backing line isolation valve, such that when the backing pump is switched off the isolation valve closes.

The relay box is connected to the TIC via the logic interface connector, which is also provided with a bypass connector for interfacing with OEM equipment.

STIC TURBO CONTROLLER

TIC Turbo controller

A compact turbo controller with a large clear graphical display, an intuitive user interface and serial communications providing full remote control and data logging functions via a new WindowsTM based PC program.

The controller automatically recognizes and supports one 24 V turbomolecular pump from the EXT range. Cooling and vent valve support is provided directly from the controller. Backing pump control is provided for a compact 24 V diaphragm pump (on 200 W versions only), or where greater pumping speeds are required, mains backing pumps (up to E2M28) may be controlled via an optional relay box. The relay box can also be used to control a mains heater band and backing line isolation valve.

Time delays and normal speed signals may be used to control events such as turbo start and there is a comprehensive selection of protection and safety interlock features.

The TIC turbo controller may be either rack or bench mounted and provides a useful hub for the flexible operation of a wide range of vacuum system configurations.

Features & benefitsUniversal turbo & instrument controller• TIC automatically recognizes and controls one 24 V turbomolecular

pump from either the DX or EXDC ranges. The 200 W version provides sufficient power to ensure optimum performance of larger 255 turbos. DX turbos have full serial communication with TIC and may be both configured and report status via TIC.

Backing pump support• Both mains and 24 V backing pumps may be controlled by TIC. The

200 W version supports the new XDD1 dry diaphragm pump. For larger vacuum systems both the 100 W and 200 W versions may control mains backing pumps, including XDS10 and up to RV12, via the optional relay box.

Relay options• The optional external relay box enables mains backing pumps to be

controlled and also provides interfaces for a turbo heater band, a backing line isolation valve and a logic bypass.

• All relay boxes include a logic bypass facility for further system integration.

Simple system configuration• In most instances, TIC systems may be simply and quickly configured

using the range of standard cables on offer, there is therefore no need for the customer to prepare loom assemblies or relay boxes and special interfaces.

Compact instrument• TIC is packaged in a compact case and may be panel or rack (¼ 19" rack

3U) mounted. With the addition of the bezel it becomes an attractive bench-top instrument.

Clear, easy to use graphical user interface• The large 128 x 64 pixel backlit graphics LCD and mobile phone style

menu system simplifies programing and with a choice of summary screens excellent visibility of displayed parameters is assured.

Universal power supply• TIC will operate from mains supplies with voltages between 90 and

264 V a.c., and frequencies between 47 and 63 Hz. No user intervention being required.

Serial communications• To enable complete integration into PC and PLC controlled processes,

all TIC variants include RS232 and RS485 interfaces as standard.

WindowsTM PC program• TIC is supplied with a new WindowsTM PC program which enables full

setup and control from a PC using the RS232 interface.

Software upgrades• As new compatible products are released, TIC software may be simply

upgraded using the special utility supplied with the WindowsTM PC program.

• TIC software upgrades will be made available via e-mail and the Internet.

Display interface

TIC software is structured through a series of easily accessible screens, similar to a mobile telephone.

TIC automatically recognizes which turbo connected and displays the appropriate information on the default summary screen. Scrolling and selecting accesses the control and set-up menus for that item.

Turbo speed is shown as a proportion of full speed by a bar graph. "Norm" indicates that the turbo has reached its Normal Speed, whilst forward or reverse facing chevrons indicate acceleration and deceleration.

Two levels of password protection are available, effectively restricting or preventing unauthorized intervention.

Pump status is displayed, giving a clear indication of what is currently happening in the vacuum system.

In the event of an error occurring, TIC will display either a WARNING or flash an ALARM. A warning advises of a condition outside normal parameters, requiring no action, but an alarm must be cleared before normal operation may resume

The three setpoint relays, which are highlighted when tripped, may be linked to turbo speed.

Backing pump 24 V(For mains backing pump support, see below.)

200 W turbo supporting TIC variants recognize and control the following 24 V backing pumps:

PUMP-TO-CONTROLLER CABLE

A pump-to-controller cable must be ordered separately for EXC100E & EXC250E and is available in 1, 3 and 5 m lengths, to suit your installation, (other lengths are available on request).

ACX AIR-COOLER

An ACX air-cooler is used to cool an EXT pump when a suitable cooling-water supply is not available or for an EXT pump in a mobile pumping system. The ACX air-cooler is an enclosed electrical fan and fixing bracket assembly which is easily fitted to bolt holes in the base of the pump.

The ACX air-cooler has a 24 V d.c. motor which can be powered and controlled from a rear panel socket on the EXC/TIC Controller or DX pump. It is supplied with 3 m of electrical cable.

BX BAKEOUT BAND

Use a BX bakeout band to increase the rate of degassing of the pump body to achieve faster pump down and lower ultimate pressure. Bakeout bands are only fitted to CF flanged pumps and/or intended for use in ultra high vacuum systems.

Bakeout bands are available for use with 110-120 or 220-240 V a.c. electrical supplies and can be powered from a rear panel socket on the EXC/TIC Controller or DX pump. It is supplied with 3 m cable and mating CE22 connector.

PRX10 PURGE-RESTRICTOR

The PRX10 purge-restrictor is used to set the flow-rate of purge gas into the EXT pump. All of the EXT pumps (except the EXT70 and EXT70H) have a purge-port to allow you to purge the motor and bearing cavity with dry nitrogen or another inert gas. Fit a vent-port adaptor to the purge-port of the EXT255H or EXT255DX pumps to convert it from !/8 inch BSP to DN10NW, before you use the PRX10.

TAV VENT-VALVE

The TAV vent-valves are 24 V d.c. solenoid operated valves which you can use to vent your vacuum system with atmospheric air or dry nitrogen when you switch off the EXT pump. The valves are supplied with a sintered bronze inlet-filter, a riffled hose connector, 3 m of electrical cable and a DN10NW adaptor. The vent-valves can be powered and controlled from a rear panel socket on the EXC Controller. You can either use your TAV vent-valve to replace the manual vent-valve supplied with the EXT pump, or adapt it to fit any other suitable port on the vacuum system upstream of the turbomolecular pump. For further advice about the choice of TAV vent-valve, see page 2-3.

VENT-PORT ADAPTOR

This !/8 inch BSP male to DN10NW adaptor can be used to replace the TAV5 vent-valve or the manual vent-valve fitted to the EXT pumps. It allows the threaded vent-port on the pump (and the threaded purge-port on the EXT255H and EXT556H) to be converted to a DN10NW flange.

The vent-port adaptor is supplied with a removable flow-restrictor and an "O" ring to seal the adaptor to the pump.

VIBRATION ISOLATOR

A vibration isolator can be fitted to the inlet-flange of the EXT pump to reduce the transmission of the small amount of vibration generated by the pump to your vacuum system. The vibration isolator has two flanges separated by a flexible stainless steel bellows and an outer rubber anti-vibration collar.

The vibration isolator is designed for use with vertically mounted pumps only.

VRX VENT-RESTRICTOR

Fit a VRX vent-restrictor to your EXT pump if you will vent the pump when the pump speed is above 50% of full rotational speed. The vent-restrictor restricts the flow-rate of the vent gas into the EXT pump. You can also use the VRX to replace the standard restrictor supplied with the PRX10 purge restrictor to obtain a different purge rate.

You can fit the vent-restrictor to the TAV vent-valve, to the vent-port adaptor or directly to the vent or purge port of the EXT255H and EXT255DX pumps.

EXT SPARES

Each EXT pump is supplied with an inlet seal, inlet screen and water cooler (with the exception of DX pumps). These items may also be ordered as spares.ORDERING INFORMATION

BOC Edwards is a leader in clean and dry vacuum technology. The first STP pumps were sold in 1983 and there are now over 70000 installations worldwide. 85% are operating on semiconductor process tools where they demonstrate exceptional levels of reliability. STP pumps are the first choice for applications demanding high up-time, hydrocarbon-free pumping, minimal maintenance and low vibration.• Proven reliability.• Clean oil-free high vacuum.• Complete range from 300 to 3500 l s-1.• Application specific models.• Very low noise and vibration.• Low cost of ownership.• Virtually maintenance free.• Installation in any orientation.• Full remote control interface.• Supported globally by BOC Edwards

Proven magnetic bearing technologyThe rotor is entirely suspended by magnetic bearings so all contact between the rotor and the remainder of the pump is eliminated. As well as giving very low vibration, the elimination of contact means no bearing wear and no requirement for consequent pump maintenance.

STP rangeUHV series The Ultra High Vacuum series of magnetically levitated turbo molecular pumps are the products of choice for the semiconductor, surface science or high energy physics industries. They offer unrivalled reliability, performance, cleanliness and class leading low vibration levels. The pumps are all d.c. powered, eliminating the need for batteries, they use a half rack controller which features auto-tuning and advanced diagnostic features. The range contains pumps with speeds from 300 l s-1 to 1000 l s-1 all of which are available in ISO or CF flange variants.High throughput series The high throughput series of magnetically levitated turbo pumps generate the high gas flows required by the current generation of semiconductor etch, ion implant and LCD systems. All the pumps feature a five active axis magnetic bearing system and a d.c. drive for increased robustness and stability. They use a Holweck stage to provide advanced throughput performance. They operate via a half rack controller with auto-tuning, advanced diagnostics and an integrated temperature management system. The range operates with throughput speeds from 300 l s-1 to 450 l s-1.

SAdvantage series The new Advantage series of magnetically levitated turbo pumps have been designed to provide the highest levels of throughput required by the next generation of semiconductor etch and CVD processes. They have been developed, using continuous improvement techniques, from the ultra reliable, high performance H series of products. Their advanced rotor design combined with selection of the best materials has allowed the creation of the next generation of high throughput turbo pump inside the same footprint as many of the existing models. The range contains pumps with throughput speeds from 800 l s-1 to 3500 l s-1.

STP features

Oil free All STP turbomolecular pumps are oil free. The use of magnetic bearings eliminates all hydrocarbon lubricants ensuring no contamination of the vacuum process from the turbomolecular pump. This feature is vital in the semiconductor industry (where device densities are constantly increasing) and in surface science or high energy physics applications (where even minute degrees of contamination disrupt measurements).

Maintenance free Unlike conventional mechanical bearings, magnetic levitation means there is no frictional contact, eliminating sources of wear and vibration. This feature enables STP turbomolecular pumps to run for years with virtually no maintenance, reducing annual operating costs to a minimum and ensuring maximum up-time is achieved. This maintenance free feature can be particularly beneficial on processes producing chemical or radioactive contamination.

Vibration free Magnetic levitation of the rotor results in an extremely low level of noise and vibration. Peak-to-peak vibration level is less than 0.02 µm. This amplitude remains constant throughout the life of the pump and is free from troublesome sub-harmonics.

Automatic balancing system (ABS) ABS is a unique patented development of 5-axis technology. If any rotor imbalance is introduced (by deposition of process by-products, for example), sensors in the pump detect changes in the rotor motion and compensate the magnetic bearing fields to allow the rotor to spin on its natural inertial axis. This minimizes the vibration transmitted to the inlet flange. ABS works at all pump rotational speeds.

Safety backup bearings STP pumps have dry lubricated axial and radial mechanical bearings as safety backup bearings. These support the rotor and protect the pump in the event of a total disruption of magnetic suspension or a massive air inrush which overcomes the magnetic bearing stiffness. These high precision ball bearings are dry lubricated and are not in contact with the rotor during normal operation.

Optimized rotors The multistage pure bladed rotors in the UHV pumps provide the high vacuums required for clear beamlines on CD SEM machines, mass spectrometers and ion implanters. They provide optimum pumping performance with excellent light gas compression ratios.

Compound rotors The high throughput pumps incorporate a Holweck drag stage that increases the pumps throughput at low pressure.

Advanced series compound rotors The advanced series pumps have a redesigned compound rotor, the materials of manufacture have been improved to reduce the clearances within the pump, the rotors have an advanced 3D design and the Holweck stage has been redesigned to increase the throughput.

Corrosion resistant To ensure a high level of resistance to corrosion, the corrosion resistant (C) and high throughput (H-C) pumps have nickel coated rotors/stators and pump internals suitable for ion implantation and plasma etching. Further enhanced levels of protection are available on request.

Nitrogen purging The corrosion resistant (C) pumps and the high throughput (H-C) pumps have a nitrogen purge facility, a constant flow of nitrogen through the pump dilutes corrosive gases minimizing their damage to the pumps motor and sensor coils.

TMS system The BOC Edwards Temperature Management System is available on a wide range of turbo pumps. It is designed to optimize the temperature within the pump, dramatically reducing the particle condensation within. This will not only considerably enhance the performance of the pump under harsh process conditions, but also increase its operational life.

APPLICATIONS

Semiconductor fabrication STP turbomolecular pumps are the number one choice for the world's leading semiconductor etch and implant manufacturers. The pumps are installed on the harshest applications (for example, metal etch) and demonstrate exceptional levels of reliability.• Plasma etch (chlorine, fluorine and bromine chemistries) for metal

(aluminum), tungsten and dielectric (oxide) and polysilicon• Electron cyclotron resonance (ECR) etch• Film deposition CVD, PECVD, ECRCVD, MOCVD• Sputtering• Ion implantation source, beam line pumping end station• MBE• Diffusion• Photo resist stripping• Crystal/epitaxial growth• Wafer inspection• Load lock chambers
